^They look OK at some angles and then look like chunky skate shoes at others. You should post a picture of them worn when you get them, as it's tough to judge by seeing only shots of the shoe.

Time for a new pair? We'll see. Btw I never noticed a discernible difference in comfort between these and designer variations, not that we were discussing that.

Thoughts on the Geller GATs?
I just bought the green version from the promo sale. At $100 I thought worth a shot.


They look good in some pics but not others. I saw pics of them here:

Let me know what you think of them. I didn't get them because I was unsure of sizing (I'm normally a 43/10 but it says these run small after 42 meaning I'd wear a 44) and because they're made of canvas.

Nice.

I did notice a difference in comfort between the eBay GATS and Margiela. The MMM's are super buttery and the sole is more flexible, easily the most comfortable shoe I've owned. My eBay's were comfy but quite a ways from MMM.
