You dropped $840 on doubling this set? Damn man that's respectable. I have seven pairs of Wtaps sk8 mid's, wish I could afford to stock up on these zipperbacks. With your size, you can't go wrong, either, since you can always sell your extra's during hard times.

Oh and when you go to a place like Supreme in Japan, do you just point to the shoe, and the size you want, or do they speak english? OR do you speak Japanese?!
Thanks for the love all.... Btw bill, I am a flight attendant. This particular supreme store I went, they speak fair English. Made it easy for me. We're very friendly too.

Even though I'm new here, I have been collecting for a long time so occasionally i find value in certain releases. Not for resale but the ones I know I will regret not doubling up on. Plus, I wouldn't commit to anything that would affect me financially at this point in my life. :)

Shaztech...I lived in Japan a long time ago. Great place. Looking back I wish I knew what I do now, so I could appreciate all they have to offer.

Yeah man, I'm the same way. No worries, I don't look at you like a newb, you seem like you've been around in the game. I'm glad to hear someone was double-crazy like I get on certain releases. I really wish I could afford to double up on this release, but I can't. at least I doubled on black though, so I can wear those ones a lot.

They would be a perfect shoe (ONE COMPLAINT...just one) if the leather had the same characteristics of the Dill Syndicate Authentic. On my pair, the snake pattern isn't pressed as deep as on the Dills and the leather doesn't seem as substantial. Other than that the Chukka Low is in my top 3 silhouettes for Vans (and is forgiving as far as being forced to size up .5). So glad they chose that model.

I bought DS with box brown/black Vault Prizon issues for $30 shipped today :?: Actually I think it was yesterday but someone else scored the second pair of 9's for that price. Was it anyone here?

I thought the same thing. As soon as I got my Dill's in and realized how much better the quality was, I sold my Rattles instantly, on a count of I needed money and I never even wore the Rattles.
