i would absolutely LOVE them... if they kept the base cream colour right through to the lace area... and not changed it to a shitty white/grey colour.
ruined what would have been a new addition to my collection

Whoever decided to ditch the proper vin laces outta these new vins needs sacking..but i agree steve the designers are going the right way keeping it simple regarding colourways and that.
Pokey starts a petition for proper vin laces to come back and be included in all future 80s releases as well
It's not the size of the feet!!it's the amount of quality on em

I hadn't noticed the change in lace strip colour.
What a shame.
They're almost a flip of one of the 3th TBD shoes.

Forgive my ignorance but what was so special about these vin laces, everyone seems to agree that they were better than the laces you get now bit I have never seen them. Can someone help?
PS love the reds don't like the brown and cream ones at all.

These are the best of the bunch IMHO...
With God's help I'll conquer this terrible affliction.
