Nah. . Can't see fast laces making them look less chunky. Think they are the most chunky skates that were made. Give it a try though. I've just got standard laces in mine

Yeah it is but unfortunately these are not for me. Way to big to fit. Got them for my friend. I hope he is as happy with them as I am. Bet he will be.

Nice pickup Lex, love the first gen skates, nice and fat. Got quite a few first gens myself, but never got these ones. Good job.
Lovely vins ez, one of my faves after the Bordeauxs. I dropped the dark red laces from my Ian Browns in my pair, looks nice.

Been after these for years, I wasn't disappointed.
Build quality and materials are way better than the vins with the grey stripes from around the same time.

Yep, did you bid?
I have a feeling were usually bidding against each other, we will have to come up with a system

Excellent pick up at an amazing price. So much more comfy than the grey striped of the same vintage (pun half-intended). They used to be my go to pair for travelling.
