My vote is for somewhere outdoors or in Japan at The Works.

Thanks Chris!

Why are MMM GAT sneakers so expensive?  Is it handmade with high quality materials?  Even if it is, they look similar to Adidas Samba construction and I can't see the price being that high with that kind of construction.  Not trying to start shit, just wondering.

I checked the price and it was $435.

imho, it's the name you are paying for (big label a salaries to support, advertising, & all else that goes with supporting such a large operation).  nothing else as far as i can tell.  seems to be like that with alot of "fashion labels". fortunately, alot of folks are around here because they want to spend their hard earned money on quality goods.

Mike C, not a bad question or point to make directly or indirectly.  & kudos for grabbing alot of your folks IH goods, besides my brother i'm pretty stingy with this stuff & treat it like that indie band you love but don't tell anyone about

MOTHERFUCK those prices. Original German army trainers, on which these are based, cost 25 €… And I am sure that quality wise, they're even better...

yep

Nice, I just looked up GATs and that is what came up. Thanks for clearing up German Army Trainer=GAT.  Now I get why the Adidas Samba copies the GAT.

actual the original GAT's were made by Adidas without branding, not sure if this is still the case…

there was also some branded Adidas GAT variation in the last years Adidas Originals serie

Does this mean we have a IH hermaphrodite? Not judging, just curious. Wasn't aware that was a option. Guess it should be these days.

At some point there were rumors of a party in Berlin.  Is that still an option?  I would be in favor.

Seriously though, the whole crotch area still feels a bit tight after 24 days of wear, no soak or wash, should I try to stretch it a little or just do nothing, kiya says to wash or soak once in a while that it strengthens the denim but is this true?!
