I already asked my local spot to order me the engineers in black, and sierra lo's in black/burgundy, I'm feelin' em. The engineers could go either way but I love my red wing engineer boot, so I'm willing to take a chance.

the engineers and sierra high have popped up on ebay if anyone wants some more photos of them, although they are samples.

also, the taka sandals in black (santa rosa? I dunno) are up in a size 9us for 65.00, if anyone is looking. I have the browns and they're my fave sandals, wish those were my size...

how do the santa rosa sandals fit? because I might be able to fit them if they run a little big.

I think they do run a little big, mine are 8s and I usually wear a 7 or 7.5, hard to tell the fit on flip flops though haha.

I hate to agree with you guys, but I'm definitely disappointed with the newest taka drops! Guam, if you're looking for some more pendleton joints just wait until the next run off ANS kicks drop. Those are going to be straight up yoga fire!

Yeah man, they got teal in them and red, which always looks good on Native American prints.

Just a heads up, all TH product from Vault is going to be around this price range and higher for the rest of Spring and Fall. Vault has changed just a little bit for Fall, with more of a high end menswear look & pricepoints. They are still going to do some of the classic silhouettes with nice material stories, but there is going to be a lot more fashion forward design & materials that will be coming out for Fall 12.

Vault is just making it too easy for California to pass them up! I guess this is plan B since most Vaults end up on the discount rack. They need to justify the already high prices, but they need to make sure the shoe looks and feels like a $170+ shoe, and not a pair of regular Vans. I get it, but I think this group will be turned off by it. We like our classics!

Some of em, I would consider, even at those prices.. But being there are 0 vault accounts in Tampa iam not gonna spend 200$ on a shoe that I can't see in person and make sure the silhouette fits right and its not gonna be some glue stained outlet resale

Unfortunately I doubt there will be a Vault account in Tampa anytime in the very near future. The closest Vault accounts to there are: Shoe Gallery in Miami, Unknown in North Miami (some store Lebron James is affiliated with, not sure how long it will last), and Wish in Atlanta.
