      Thanks for the good vibes, guys.  That's one of the reasons I keep coming back to this forum.

      Heavy Duty- if I have something useful to contribute, I'm perfectly willing to do so, but my dislike for the previously mentioned items boils down to "I just think they're ugly."  The way I see it, that doesn't further the discussion.  If it were an issue of quality, comfort or something that could be defended on a reasonable basis, then I'd happily share my thoughts.  But if all I can say is that I don't like it, then there's not really much point.  As the old saying goes, "beauty is in the eye of the beholder."

      And if you dumbasses think that crap is beautiful, then my superior taste and refined sense of style is utterly wasted on you plebeian douchebags.

          The real bonus to working at A&F is the mass amount co-ed of wool you can slay!

            …and then everything started to turn blue...

            orlylow- congrats on getting the job.  I hope you'll enjoy it.  Working retail sales is an experience I think everyone should have, along with working in restaurants.  You get to see the best, worst and flat out weirdest behavior ever.

                Have to say that I'm with Chris on this one. I was raised on a steady diet of Jordans, Air Max and AF1's, so I never saw the point in CT's as they just felt uncomfortable to me, and I did try.

                My go to footwear is a steady pair of Wolverines or Abingtons for day to day, and Jordans or the like if I'm feeling sneakers.

                My 2 cents.

                  I also really dislike moc toes on boots.

                  So did I until i got my OSB's and Russells…...

                    What about them changed your mind?  Was it the comfort of the extra room in the toe box, or something else?

                      I guess the super comfiness.  I think it is the Moc construction that makes them super comfortable and the moc toe is just a  necessary side effect of the construction method.

                        So just came across some info about this line.

                        Apparently it'll have a US release in the spring, but it's already out in Japan.

                        They feature a Vibram sole and more premium aspects to the shoe.

                        Here's a couple of images I've come across.

                        anoutcommune.com in Japan seems to have them in stock for ~$210 US, but not many sizes.

                        They are enough to get me excited about this release, figured someone here may be interested.

                        Cheers,

                        Jesse

                            Beatle - can you get those in Germany?

                            I really want a pair, I emailed the people @ Rakuten, but communication is far from great.

                            I'd love some Vibram Chucks!

                            They look to be much more comfortable all the way around!

                            I want a pair of Black High's and a pair of White OX lows.

                            anyone on this forum in Japan want to grab me a couple pairs? I'd happily send something that's not available in JP from the states!

                            Cheers,

                            Jesse

                              I'd be happy to return the favor and buy something here in exchange for the favor as well as paypall'n the money?

                                  no such luck, i'm not trying to spend 450 on ebay, but they're not even in size 13 on there - so there goes a 5 am post edit impulse buy option. hahah.

                                  you got any thoughts / leads?

                                  i want a black and i want a white, i'd probably pass on the camo's too!

                                  i have a bunch of friends over @ nike, and some friends who run the converse rubber tracks studio in nyc, so i'll figure something out in january.

                                        it's ~210ish.

                                        not too shabby, but its a matter of catching them when the stock comes in as they don't have it around for long.
