Under The Palms

just got my order in from spot. 3 pairs minus camel. hopefully i wont regret it.
one of my shoe boxes was cut almost half way through. kinda bummed about that.

That's whack. Warehouse 101 right there. Adjust your blade, or cut it near the edge seam for crying out loud.

yeah. i really like the drawer box too.

I am not sure that is from a knife. I have seen previous drawer box releases crack exactly like that when the box bangs around on a ups truck. Again, just my two cents based on that picture.

It seems like at least half of my Syndicate boxes have come with a similar tear... Usually only like 2 inches or so, but it seems they have a tendency to rip on the corners like that.

Same here man. Black electric tape saves the day.

I always just use clear packing tape.

Oh, that's not a slice, hehe! At first, I was thinking that your problem was exactly this splitting issue, but thought that you'd recognize a split when you saw one, especially on the seam. That's a typical tear that us collectors see on a lot of improperly sized drawer boxes. Usually it's when they use an inner box that's too big for the outer sleeve. One of my Golf Wangs from Active came with a small 2" split as well. If anyone owns a pair of the HUF Old Skools, Filson Sk8-Hi's, JJ Notchbacks, or any Syndicates that came over-stuffed with accessories, like the 003 JJ's with the extra insoles, then you'll know EXACTLY what I mean!

oh word. didn't know this was a common problem. this is actually the only time it's ever happened to me in the years ive been buying.
will tape it up!

Well got my blacks and camels from spot. Satisfied with the overall shoes.

my Camel box has the 2" tear. Not sure why as the draw slides in and out easily.

what's the sizing for this shoe like for everyone?

Feel TTS to me. No complaints!

EDIT….I lied. The only downside is that Tyler the non-Creator had something to do with this. ha ha

TTS

I don't think I've ever seen resell prices drop so fast on something that sold out so quick... Most that I've been watching on ebay have been ending just over $100. A few pairs ended around $50-60! Granted, those pairs got relisted cuz they had a reserve, but yeah. Not sure if it's people mislabeling them or what, but it looks like it'll be easy to get any colors you want soon! haha

probably has to do with the fact a lot of people who bought them bought them to sell.
