      Now this is cool.

      …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.

              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

                            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.

                            cheers

                                  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.

                                          Typical issue with chucks over time. Use shoe goo or whatever. I just rip the rubber off personally. Chucks look better when they are beat to shit anyways. Considering the cost, if you are unhappy just buy a new pair.

                                            True, its just the one spot where the shoe bends when I walk. On both sides of the shoe, on both shoes, so I know what caused it.
