and probably you will end up with a better quality shoe too! (check the video on page 61 if you havent yet)

Well I'm not going to cut them up to find out!

I hope that won't be necessary as we can just follow the progress, including the construction, on here.
At most you'd have to cut apart a CP shoe ?

Sounds like the fairest thing to do is send one to the same guy for the cut apart.

yep! He is not going to accept a "free sample" to avoid any chance that he is not reviewing the standard but an improved version of the product. You can offer him a refund though, and it would be a great publicity for the SF-02 too!

I think he did accept free shoes to review in the past. Better to just contact him I suppose.

On the other hand Trenton and heath received free Beckett Simonone and just took apart the sole. They refused to cut the shoe apart bc they wanted to enjoy it. Lol

$425 Common Projects Cut in Half and revealed they use a so-so quality leather.
As someone more wise than me said ''Stupid people need shoes too ''.

well if anyone knows him, we are more than up for it! Minute the video goes up, good or bad he can have a refund.
If good, great. Anything bad we can rectify!

Just a quick updated:
Right now all the leather is being cut except for the kangaroo, that is arriving at Adriano's around Thursday. By mid next week we should have the leather ready and in 2/3 weeks time we'll receive the soles from Margom. From then, they mount the soles to the upper and go on with the stitching, which shouldn't take too long.

Keep you posted.

 

[OrlandoMo]

Good news: margom soles are already ready to be shipped to our craftsman! Keep you posted

 

[CWV]

Btw. What happened with the insoles you were developing?

Still talking with Technogel! We are studying the best option with them

 

[ArchibaldRoh]

Excited this is finally happening... These shoes are going to be something else we just got feedback from our testers, one of whom has really tried to beat them up pretty badly.
