They still have me thinking. I read up about the hurting of the heels and the fact that jeans mess them up.

Is all of this true? Can I escape the heel business by buying one size larger? And what about the jeans?

I asked this guy for more pics but instead he sent me the following-
"instead, look at my feedback and return policy, I have never tried to cheat or trick anyone. I have approximately 50 different Superstars from this collection including some of the consortium series. I bought them all between Jan and March of 2005 when they first came out, all of them are real, and 100% authentic, as all the other stuff I sold so far."

Has anyone bought from him before and is he just confident in his product or is he the angel13 he appears to be because I can't see enough in his pics.

Oh and I sent him a message back asking if it comes with the three pairs of laces (royal blue, dark red and white with dark red anniversary print) because it doesn't seem to say so in his ad and he hasn't replied yet. I don't think he's on the level but don't want to miss out on US 10's if he is.

From what I can see the ones in the pic look legit, if you broke it done they're great prices but that's a nice kick to the stomach to bring these home.... Anyone want to go halfs?

PRESS RELEASE . Z|RICH 13.10.2006

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

CHRISTIES AND NIKE ANNOUNCE SNEAKERS AUCTION

Z|rich, 13 October 2006 - Christies and Nike announce the first-ever auctioning of sneakers by a major auction house, a charity sale to benefit Schtifti, a Swiss foundation promoting health for young people through freestyle sports. The auction will take place on Wednesday, 1 November 2006 in Z|richs trendiest night spot Mascotte near Bellevue.

Christies will auction five pairs of the +41 Nike iD Air Max, part of the Nike Air Max 1 series which represent an iconic shoe in sneaker history. The shoes being auctioned were designed by Lausannes star young design firm +41. By personalizing the sneakers with eyes, +41s intention was to switch the ordinary roles: instead of people looking at the sneakers, it's the sneakers that look at you.

The eyes also represent +41's vision of Nike Air History: they see and show a revolutionary system which brought something new to sports technology and definitively changed the sneaker scene. These shoes were originally sold only at the niche boutique Thomas I Punkt store in Hamburg, with all benefits going to a charitable organization. Due to overwhelming demand all models sold out before the release.

Now Nike will offer five pairs of the +41 Nike iD Air Max from the exclusive numbered series of 41 packages which consists of a:

- a pair of +41 Nike iD Air Max 1
- a +41 Air Max 1 artwork t-shirt
- a pack of stickers

Each lot represents a unique item, because there will only be one shoe sold in each size, and there may thus be strong competition for certain shoes. The broader market for sneakers has been growing rapidly as the shoe-fanatic market sector rises in economic status. In late September, for example, a pair of Nike Air Jordan IV sold for more than $5,200 online and limited edition sneakers designed by couture specialists commonly sell for prices rivaling those of more traditional luxury footwear.

Christie's is the world's leading auction house, a name and place that speaks of extraordinary art, unparalleled service, and international glamour. Founded in 1766 by James Christie, Christie's conducted the greatest auctions of the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries, and today remains a popular showcase for the unique and the beautiful. Prices range from $200 to over $80 million. In 2005 Christie's annual global sales increased 38% to $3.2 billion, the highest total in company history and propelling the auction house into global market leadership

The Zurich office, located next to the famous Kunsthaus, was opened in 1978. Christie's began holding bi-annual auctions for Swiss Art in 1991 and regularly hosts preview exhibitions, lectures, charity auctions and other special events, which are very popular among both collectors and art connoisseurs.

Do you think those are real?


And...I have a pair of Berlin and I want to update my collection...it's between Paris and Boston.
Has anybody seen either of these in person? I know it's a taste thing, but which one do you figure
is a more wearable shoe?


Thanks,
Brady
