nope?

Yes we did. They were called Stonefish or some such nonsense.

I think the black/brown ones were samples, so they obviously improved the fish receipe and changed brown to black and came up with these beauties...



I'll probably have to see them in person to make up my mind for sure, but so far I think they look ugly. Real ugly. Like, I wanna throw up ugly. That piece of grey fish that resembles the shell just looks ing. Yeah!

They are crap.

Yeah they were samples, these are an improvement I reckon but still bad and real hard to justify the price (£165 is cheap to what I was offered ).

Oh and they're on pre-order for £165!!

A bold move by Adidas, using a Rhinos ball-bag instead of rubber for the shell. Aren't they a protected species?

Stick em on a regular cream vin shell/sole and they'd be sweet, as it stands they look a bit odd - Nicer than the brown version mind

£165 though? what's the deal there?

RE: New ones... - spitey - 19-06-08

very steep. more than a consortium price..... why ???

RE: New ones... - dj_wildthing - 19-06-08

I think Sneakerphile answered that one: they're using rhino ball-bags instead of rubber for the shells. And it's more expensive.

RE: New ones... - Sooper - 19-06-08

^^ That always bumps the price up!

RE: New ones... - spitey - 19-06-08

And it's one size fits all, you just tickle the shell & it will swell to the appropriate shoe size!!

...or leave both the balls in to drop four shoe sizes.

The other brown pair were Wolf Fish I believe.
