my two latest additions

***edit*** oops, sorry, just realized that I uploaded the BIG pic version

on sale shopnicekicks.com US$45
gray nuboc with cardinal/burgundy accents, faux snakeskin on stripes/heel, not a winter/wet weather shoe that's for sure
[Image: IMAG0255-1.jpg]

on sale shopadidas.com US$35.... snagged them right when the price dropped
my first official 80's, the "clean" version, eyelets are a dark blue along with inner liner
should've got an 8.5 instead of my normal 9.0, a bit roomy
lace flip #1... brown fatties vs FTR browns... or....
[Image: IMAG0256.jpg]
lace flip #2... brown fatties vs brown fattiers
[Image: IMAG0259.jpg]
the regular fatties seem to match better than the fattiers
i pulled the supplied laces quickly. didn't like how they don't "hide" the top of the shell.
fatties seem to be too casual for this model; prob throw the FTRs back in them.
ARGH decisions decisions
pictures don't do the mahogany suede any justice, sorry. REALLY nice Supe.
here's pic of issued laces. don't like how they don't "hide" the top of the shell.

A bit controversial......but i actually like the issued laces with this model, dont really like fats with a non striped model.

i think i'm with SK and benji on this, too delicate of a design, like i said, fatties may be too casual for this model. i'll probably roll with the FTRs in them for a bit. ehh, will see how it goes. prob won't get to wear them for a while now anyways since my bragging about 80 degree weather has finally ended and we've had wet/foggy weather for the past week. thanks for the props and input.

No stripes is one thing but no eyestays is just not done.

If I would have to choose I'd go for the original laces. The fats look terrible.
