Exactly. Sole is glued on. ****** quality probably won't last very long.

You hated the thinner sole though. Just reading from page 1, it looks like the hate and like for the gum sole is about 50/50.

If I hated the sole why would I post "copping" while everyone hated them?

all sneakers soles are glued on. The stitching is partly superfluous, but it does help to keep the leather from coming away from the sides of the soles (as often happens in chucks).

they will probably last just as long as normal CPs.

they're nowhere near as nice though.

**** i love that grey with the gum sole. So nice man. What size?

I agree with you on both counts (i think i was a gum sole hater at first). Gum sole is nice, thin sole is dumb.

Just ordered a couple pairs of the Evisu x CP lows... Hopefully they fit similar to regular CPs and not TTS like the site says
