Thought the same thing till I saw em in person. Its still chunkier than most, but it is in essence a skate shoe and for $60 you can't go wrong.Originally Posted by Fycus
Side silhouette looks like Dior Homme's less desirable offerings. I agree It is probably decent for the price, but nothing spectacular.

I'm kinda confused. I thought Sperrys run large which is why most people size down and you got a 43.5 (which is like a US9.5)? So the GATs run super large?Originally Posted by JackTheRipper
They're made by adidas and puma so go with your size in that (especially if you have sambas). I bought a 280 (which is what size a samba in 10US is). I'll let you know when I get them.

Do we get styleforum points for getting in on things ahead of time? Can i exchange this for prizes like pier 1 outlet shopping with shoreman or exotic animal hunting with kitonbrioni?Originally Posted by chronoaug
also, where do ceepees fit in? they used to technically be non-baller by today's price standards or were $200sneakers in 06 the same as $350 sneakers in 10?
You can shop with me anytime, hon, but I take exception to your pier 1 jibe. Room and Board is where it's at.
I actually looked through my e-mail history to see when I bought GATs, and it was really 2006. I've worn them probably a dozen times. #toofatforcpsandgats

I thought the GATs were just military surplus?
Btw, I saw your sig. If you want, I think I will be making a trip to Uniqlo either next week or the week after that. If they still have vintage chinos, I could proxy you a pair.

They remind me more of the 420g shoes:
EDIT: Duh. they're Grams, too. No wonder. 
I hated the way those fit, though.
