I'm just wondering if these are available anywhere in nyc, the regular white leather colorway was the one I wanted in particular, I know Steven Alan used to carry these but I didn't see any of these in the uptown store and only saw a few destroyed pairs at the sample sale. Thanks for your help in advance.

Well, mine are pretty much a 1:1 in appearance to the originals. He did some with random text and stuff like that in later collections, but I never liked those.

I ordered a pair from troph e-shop in Deutschland, and it was kind of a nightmare (they remove VAT, but have a minimum order [currently listed as EUR50 for international orders] and charge you a penalty [like, equal to VAT] for not meeting it; you have to pay by bank transfer; they neglected to ship them for a few weeks; shipping was EUR30), so I hope you fellas fare better. They also carry the bundeswehr navy shoes. I wouldn't really recommend them unless you speak German and contact them in advance for an exact price quote.

Also, the laces are kind of crappy. I re-laced mine in black.
