Ambassadors (footwear)

[grav.itas]

Hope it doesnt look too plasticky.

Got my pair after less than a week!

edit: The lighting in my room sucks, sorry. but yeah they're supposed to be white.

Aside from the slightly raised heel tab they're pretty much identical to CP Achilles, even the leather they use. The sizing is the same as CP too (size down 1, I got a size 40 and it fits perfectly - all my other shoes are size 8US). And you can get it for ~$230 after shipping lol. Peasants rejoice

how is the wear? comfortable insole?

Comfortable enough to walk around in for an hour at least? There's some amount of cushioning. I don't really know much about foot types if that's what you're asking. Try on a pair of CPs if you're worried

would appreciate some pics of them worn. leather looks a little shiny?

any more reviews?

[DJ_Flame]

Do these have a site?

what i mean is: how does it feel compared to cps, wear wise? cps insoles are quite soft/comfortable

From the Rakuten listings you can find a beat up pair on sale;

they are alright. unlike cps the insoles aren't attached (at least for the pairs i own) so if you run into any problems you can just replace with your own.

I only have this crap pic at the moment that i took at the office sorry. They're not as shiny in person as, say, patent leather. I don't really mind either way cause I'll beat up my pair in the next few months

one of the rakuten stores has this pic though:

Tried looking for their site, couldn't find it. They probably have one though.

The last time I tried on a pair of CPs was in 2008 so I can't make an accurate comparison, but like I said, the insoles are comfortable enough to walk around town in

alright i found some closeups that show the leather more accurately for all you dudes worried about dropping 2 bills on shoes

[photostroika]

Tbh I haven't had the chance to wear them much cause of work the past few weeks, so they still look like new pretty much. Will report back once I get some mileage on them.

Ok could someone try to help me on sizing ? Never tried a pair of CP's but I'm a 42 in Yoji homme line and usually a US 9 in dress shoes and 9.5 in Nike. I hate trying to figure out sizing. Especially when buying from overseas. Thanks

[wrong_move]

^You'll probably be okay with a size 42. I'm usually a US 8 in Nike/Adidas sneakers so I went with a size 40 and they fit fine, and they even got little loose from stretching out a bit since I got them.

Here's my pair after a few weeks of light wear. The leather isn't as shiny anymore

[photostroika]

does anyone know some international retailers other than rakuten? I wanted the white high tops but my size is only available on obscure japanese webshops that only ship within japan

[kH0yA Sw@Gp0o]

^proxy em? who you use is entirely up to you; used sharpservice a few months ago and they were more than satisfactory.

write a message to sutocorp. you will just loose your time with ssj.

[grav.itas]

Any update on these?

[photostroika]

I got the white high tops, had them since August
