Yeah they def look alot better in these pics then they did in the ebay auction though the soles looked pretty good, almost in perfect condition. Congrats on them! The black leather ones looks so sweet too...envious!

those plaintoes in grey are too sick. I need to start looking at ebay more.

oh and some ridiculous collections. All I have is a pair of p&b tan suede wallys and a pair of chinese beeswax.

anyone know how I can get my hands on some suede plaintoes in a 8.5/9?

Nice pairs Eccles.

Has anyone ever had a problem with crepe soles getting really hard?

WD40.

It softens up rubber.

Forget about the WD40.

After hearing about softening crepe using heat, I decided to put a pair in the oven.

Wrapped them in aluminum foil, and let them sit for half an hour at the lowest heat.

Job done. Much quicker and easier than the WD40 method.

be carefull with leather though, it can crack and shrink!

Word... don't bake them too hard, like I said, use the oven only at the lowest heat.

unfortunately you're only hope is yahoo jp, aside from a pair that might pop on ebay once or twice a year

aesthetically I like my grey suede Visvim buckminsters with my Supreme leather but the brands don`t blend imo. Guess I need to join the queue for p&b p500s .

They would be more likely to sell if "clarks" or "padmore & barnes" were included in the title. Regardless, 9 is not my size, but if they were a size larger eastcoastrider and I would be in a bidding war.

I lost some foot weight so now I'm a 9.5 not a 10. :)

Plus I just got these which are way too similar to those M345's

those are so rad, eastcoast..I think the high weavers are called m337.. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

R&S, didn't we look at some m345's a while ago (I cant remember colors) that weren't supreme nor under padmore&barnes or erlandia?? I might be wrong though.

hmm, i don't remember? i'm pretty sure that style was done exclusively for Supreme (along w/those grey pairs that P&B did for themselves)? could be wrong tho

Yeah I remember you bought a pair of those that turned out too small that ended up on ebay? I am going through some of the p&b pics saved, sadly they are shattered all over so all I have come over is the pairs you had up and another of the same pair but they are standing on top of a green clarks box? I'll keep digging and see if I find some proof of my somewhat crazy allegations! :D

yeah the grey pair i had was too small and ended up on ebay. i've seen other grey p&b pairs on yahoo.jp over the years but never in any other colors or for any other companies from what i can remember. i've also got an email from frank bryan at p&b from a few years back stating (after i showed him a pic of the p&b versions) that the m345's were a style they made for supreme. i know that pic you're talking about of the ones on the green clarks box (although that box had nothing to do w/those shoes as you know).

ah right on, you probably right like always. I couldn't find any pictures either. The conversation I remember was maybe about those grey ones after all!

Are the clarks at the link above any different to the clarks originals I can pick up from my local clarks store for £30 ?

The whole P&B thing is getting me confused. :)
