@scumkun why were you disappointed?

I still think the shoe is very nice and I've been waiting for these for months. I was disappointed because I felt like they rushed this release a little. There were no dust bags and I was expecting a syndicate pull out box. I still think this was a good release though.

Rushed? They've been teasing us with these for almost a year and a half.
I don't see anything rushed about it, seems pretty well thought out especially with all the samples and the box art an everything.. but maybe thats just me.

Oh yeah don't get me wrong i thought the box was nice. I guess i was expecting a bit more with this release :/

Drawer boxes are always a nice touch, but I guess it's something they don't put too much thought into anymore these days. The price point was awesome though! $70 is definitely nice, even though it was built like a GR.

Seems to me like they're new in name only. No gel, no jazz, about the same as any other EVA, to me. Comfy, but they've got nothing on lunarlon.

Hehe word. That Lunarlon is pretty legit.

It's comfy. I liken the feel to
a pair of Alomars as far as
sole comfort goes.

It's the same insole that was in the half cab lite's, right? Cuz they've also used that in the Julien Stranger's, it just didn't have that perforated fabric on top so you could see the blue through it. I think it's been in a few others, too, lately...

Yeah, that's the one. It's a nice idea, seeing as the "dots" won't wear off as if they were printed on, so they'll stay classy in the long run.

Pick-Ups within the last month or so..

Got lucky on the Concepts sale ($99) as well as these new 'S' drops. You know I have to show off that clear sole

This bike stand is the SHIT!!! ($40 on Amazon)

Nice id! Like those black disruptive cabbies.

Those Chima Ferguson's are starting to grow on me. Take out the insole, and verify if the entire sole is clear and see thru. I have a pic from Instagram that shows off that the clear goes all the way through.

Correct. Totally clear.
