I thought the teal lowtops were bad, but those safari boots are terrible. They look so goddamn awkward...

not that this thread is really about this but I have to agree that my achilles lows are the best looking shoe with jeans I've seen. *what I've seen of this season* doesn't look amazing but that doesn't mean I'm going to write off the label forever or anything

the full line of s/s 09 hasn't been released, this is only a preview.

FW09 looks better, but I really do like those safari boots. The shape and pattern are nearly the same as my TST ones, which are really very comfortable and versatile - a cool variation on the desert boot.

I don't have a link to the whole collection, but I saw the Safri boot on the men.style.com Spring 2009 Buyer's Club (like last year, so many of the right people, so many wrong answers).

I like them because they're canvas, but $375 strikes me as bananas.

No, just saw them at the showroom. I think that we have some pictures (only Whodini really knows), but not permission to print them yet. Maybe in an upcoming newsletter. We are trying as hard as possible to get you guys exclusive previews.

Yea but for $375?
Seems a little steep... but their prices on all the shoes seemed to have jumped up by about $100 this season..

I think I'm officially done with cps.

Those prices are absurd by the way.

Now that jet no longer likes these I am free to buy them. I ordered a pair of the Achilles special edition lows.
