Damn that looks massive on you, might be the angle though.

What do you need to be enlightened on? Spot releases happen at the end of each season and are not part of the regular season.

I dig oversized fits! Just wanted to get some enablement honestly lol. Basically, I’m wondering if I should be patient and proxy from japan for a future iris release or just cop now.

Anybody had issues with their skagways? Ie the toe areas pressing down on the top of your toes?

just taken out the white insole and it’s a lot better but just seeing if anyone else experienced the same thing?

not had the issue myself but as so hard to find US 11 I buy US 10 in Skagways and take out the middle insole so maybe that’s why I don’t have the issue

Thanks… yeah a bit strange… and they are my normal skag size. May well be the mud dye on my pair make the rubber harder or somethjbf

I think that it’s meant to fit about that size? I’m not sure that that type of fit works for me, but it’s popular right now in any case.

In the other way around, even sizing down half a size, they are still high volume. When I size down a full size, then they are too narrow at the forefoot, and my toes jam up, so that’s obviously not the solution. Weird, because I have a pretty high volume foot, generally speaking.

The joy of vis… they are still comfortable

I found mud dye shoes always are a bit smaller. Haven't tried to the Skags though.

I'm sure the Iris will release again as either a spot release and/or a contrary dept one. They just did another release of the classic valdez in the mainline.

There are some really nice iris jkt colors for FW22. Oddly “cheap” price compared to what it normally is.

Sounds like trunk show for SS23 is starting next week in JP, US usually follows soon~

There's a navy, olive, and tan I think. There's a drop box link posted a while back if you dig I think.
