@ArchibaldRoh I am unsure whether to ask this here or in the hand welted page, but would you guys think about doing a Viberg Slipper type of shoe? I'm sure you folks could do it one step better and slightly cheaper than Viberg offers it for, or would there maybe be some type of copyright on the shoe?

I mentioned the exact same thing to @OrlandoMo a few weeks ago.

Maybe you can chase him ??

I have mixed emotions about an AoL GAT project. One one hand, I personally think the Margiela version is the perfect aesthetic for the shoe, and what would be the big achievement in producing the exact same thing, only with better materials And construction?

On the other hand, I would be a total sucker for the exact same thing as a Margiela GAT, only with better materials and construction :laugh:

More materials! More colours! More combinations! More, more, more!!! :bounce2:I can't be the only one thinking about this, right?

I just put it on.
These are amazing. These are amazing. These are amazing.

I can't even wear them out as we need to shoot them for the site. Hate.
They look like they are super comfortable.

Hi all, has anyone in Sydney, Australia received their shoes yet? Mine seem to be stuck in some kind of Royal Mail / AusPost purgatory since 15 July when they were cleared for take-off from Langley GB. I know it's a long flight, but I think it's less than 16 days (even with mandatory quarantine :p).

Has someone used renovateur on their sneakers?
Used on my anticato green and white roos, the same way I apply it on all my leather dress shoes/boots. They came out even better.

Does anyone feel like the heel in the sneaker is too wide? It’s definetly not a sizing problem since they’re slighly tight in the front and need to break in.

Yes I mentioned this earlier when I wore my pair. I just solved it with wearing thick socks.
