Look better here and in Watson’s post on Slap, they seem to actually be pretty de-de-decent with baggy trou as well. Might cop when a vegano version drops 'nam saying?
They’re nice. They do have a bit of rock climbing shoe vibe, they also reminded me of some Camper and Simple shoe designs. I’m looking forward to skating them.
I’m trying to find a positive.
The box looks sturdy I guess.
Maybe they’ll release a slip-on version
Don’t play with my heart like that.
Good point actually, let’s hope not!
I’m definitely coming around to them I don’t find them totally offensive
Only thing I see about them that concerns me is the heel tab area looks like it’s raised a lot like some adidas
But not a total deal breaker for me
How do they feel in regards to that area?
Oh yeah it’s high, think they’ve done it to give a bit of Achilles protection and to hold the shoe on firmly. It rubs a bit I bet they’ll tweak that on the next drop. Maybe curve the top of it?
It’s pretty soft and they have that nice Last Resort leather lining so I don’t think it’s going to be a problem but I will report back after wear testing
I dunno they look banging but I got some OG Lynx and couldn’t skate them at all. They’re ok for slappies, god knows how you skate in them properly.
Bought 2 pairs because I was so convinced they would be sick and now I got to hobble through using these shit numb shoes for probably the next 10 years
I think I’m pretty used to mine, but I also have a suspicion that when I put something else on everything will suddenly feel better.
Yeah I’m not surprised as many have said the same but then there’s a wealth of evidence of people skating pretty well in them so I think it’s just what you’re used to.
Somehow managed to get a yellow pollen stain on my white leather dunks.
Anyone have an ingenious cleaning technique that doesn’t rely on me having things like baking soda and specialist types of bleach…?
Toothpaste and a soft bristled brush, assuming your toothpaste is also white.
Get some bees on it
Got toothpaste. Got bees.
Will investigate…
Arrived today. Worn them about the house this evening and they seem pretty good for a broken and bruised toe. Mental how lightweight they are, too.
Haven’t had etnies for ages, either.
Definitely not for skating, but perfect for tired dad feet. Loving the thick springy foam sole.
What are they called? They look pretty nice!
