Sk8 found them at a place called Mr. R Sports, a small chain in Miami. Phone orders only, I believe. The shoes are quite nice. Unfortunately, quality on this particular pair is not tip top. Both shells have a "melted" quality about them. Allow me to put my Rob hat on for a moment. 
You can see the distortion on the ridges of the shell on the right here. There's also some glue on top of the shell on the left that's not wanting to come off:

Looking from the front, the shell on the left is kind of bent upward:

Anyway, I'm not gonna sweat it. I guess it gives them "character" but for $115 US you kinda want them perfect, ya know?
