Kunk,

did this really need it's own thread?

come on man, your slipping.

[mufid]

in my opinion, no matter who designed them or what label they are, a price like this is not justified...where are they made?

but people will still buy them...

is one lil' ole thread about $1000 + doc martens too much to ask?

I see Kunks point, whereas the RO trainers dont look like anything else (except a pair of skiboots for handicapped children, no hate folks), those boots look pretty much Identical to a pair of Docs (right down to the zip) that you could get for 100 quid. Sure you could argue that the quality is not comparable, which Im sure it isnt, but you could achieve pretty much the same aesthetic result by buying some docs. All im saying is, he didnt really put as much effort into designing those as he did his other stuff, so Im not sure the price is entirely warranted. Just my opinion though, Im sure some people will be drooling all over them, which they are more than entitled to do.

^^given the title it could potentially be a new thread about all kinds of overpriced stuff. there is plenty to choose from out there

EDIT: was referring to kunk's retort to jimmyc up there

samurais are just levis
