Nice pickup Vox. I am in debate on picking those up.

Materials are really nice but the cw is pretty close to the petrol supes. I'm thinking of selling my petrols and keeping these.

Probably a handful of people in the world that appreciate the old glue stains and yellowed soles, I'm one of those. Just wish they were 10-20 years older. I do prefer this tongue over any other though. Thanks Lex for these 94's!

Absolutely fantastic Vox! Congrats.
How the fudge you find these gems? you must spend hours and hours browsing the interwebs or is it about knowing the right people?

nice catch vox! but be careful, these tongues will crack while wear... got a pair of argentina blues from ´94 and they´re cracked.

took over three months, but the skate green crocs finally showed up at my house. ARGH.... the stress of finding them, winning them, paying for them, and then never arriving was heart wrenching. but they finally arrived. not too thrilled with the yellowing of the shell, but oh well. gotta live with it i guess.
just a heads up for you USA peeps.... if you are expecting shoes from outside the USA and the package has a tracking #, the USPS will enter the foreign tracking # into their system and further the tracking process. i didn't know that.
last pair on my list below.... Yoda. since i'm a cheapy on buying Supes, i'll prob never get a pair. oh well. the ride was fun.

Blimey, 3 months! You're one lucky guy they turned up at all. Congrats to you! Btw, think I saw a pair of Yodas at around £600 the other day
@EZ - I've bought most of my pairs on Ebay. I do a search every day
@ Sk8 - Tell me about it! It's a constant battle against cracking stripes and sticky tongues with the 90's. I've already re-painted the tongues on one of my 93' Pro Models.

Very nice indeed Sir.

Erik they are amazing. I think reconstructing the tongue is the way to go, if you have a sewing machine. Just that top layer. getting the tongue in and out is doable with a few cheap tools. Let me know if you want info.. could also get a tailor/seamstress to do it. Definitely worth it for those.
