Curious as to what the SuFu look is… I peruse the B/S section from time to time, but that's about it...
Interesting Seul – but I'm a SuFu lurker, not a poster -- although I did post some pics to "Raw For Women" to get girls to try Iron Heart (I posted IH 301S and Black Cyclist jean pics -- now I need to post IH 461 too !). But someone named "Salaami" saw my pics and said "Pleasure to meet you Shubha. It's so nice to meet someone who doesn't fit the SuFu prototype". I guess it's because I'm an older woman, and throw in "of colour" ? Not sure what Salaami meant but I took it as a compliment.
Beatle was certainly right about one thing -- my Clark Wallabees are ridiculously comfortable. I can walk a million miles in them, no problem. But they're not my faves because they make me look short as fuck. I feel like a koala bear in them. If I were ever to meet you in person Beats, Seul, DougNg, LandoCal -- trust me, I won't be wearing those Clarks -- they're not flattering overall (and of course, I want you to think I'm HOT). Shorter folks have to be more careful about what they wear -- for instance, those big-checked IH flannels (gray, red and blue), though beautiful, would make me look short and dumpy. Same goes for the puffy jackets.
DougNg, thanks for your thoughts. Once I pay some shit off, I'm gonna get those 3 pair of Docs I posted about.

LandoCal & Till, these closely resemble Seul's German Army sneakers which seem impossible to get your hands on.

I might buy another pair (27/ 42/ 9 US/ 8 UK) if you can get your hands on them, Beatz.
They're not hard to come by, it's just that both my reg seller of these (German fella) and eBay.de (Germany) didn't have 'm anymore… I just wanna get a back-up pair in case they dó become hard to get...

i used to collect dunks too back in high school. then freshman year in college i slowed down and only copped a few jordan V (fire reds, green bean, grapes).
then i got a girlfriend and couldn't afford anything ever again =b.
by then, the sneaker game blew up and GR dunks were everywhere.
now, 3 years later. after i dumped the gf, my addiction for raw denim started, which leads me here to IH.in the past 2 years, just been wearing vans authentics and chuck cons high. both in monochrome black.
they're just good, simple everyday shoes. cheap enough to buy multiple pairs too. i went through 4 chucks and 2 vans in those 2 years. -
Here is a pic of the ever elusive shark skin sneakers from Ed Meier in Munich. I've had these for quite a long time. The shark skin is really super sturdy. They say 25 times tougher than cow skin. The upper looks like new. The sole is in need of an overhaul. I'd buy them again but haven't had a chance to go to EM last time I was in Munich and I don't think he sells them over the net. In fact, I don't know if they still make them. A friend of mine has them in water buffalo. Nice, too. You can see the quality of the lining leather is also excellent. And they are super comfortable. If only they were cheaper, they'd be perfect!
I like the cut. It's like a sneaker on a Richelieu/Oxford basis or at least inspiration with a longwing front quarter. Only Hermes makes similar ones, afaik, but I'm not a sneaker specialist. And Hermes prices are truly hardcore.
