W2C GATs? Anonymous Sun Jul 26 22:36:11 2015 No.10164682 [Reply] [Original]

I checked (American) Ebay for ordinary GATs, but I couldn't find them in Size 11 US (Adidas sizing).
There used to be a listing on Ebay I had bookmarked about a month ago, but that's obviously gone now. Anyone know where to get a pair for GATs in size 11, preferably below $70? (I know there's some Etsy thing that sells it for about $80 here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/220625237/mens-white-vintage-german-army-trainers but that's just too much for a pair of GATs.)

MMM GATS usually go on sale for around $250 if you're looking in the right places. Ask yourself, is saving $150 really worth compromising quality and aesthetic? Wouldn't you rather have a gorgeous shoe made of quality materials in Italy that will turn heads and get you compliments everywhere you go, not to mention one that will last you for years, instead of some ugly pieces of shit that will fall apart in a month and look like they've been through a fire in about a week?

yo man I wasn't attacking you as a person, I am just saying it's kinda funny to imagine someone walking down a street and random strangers giving them high fives and "nods of approval" due to his MMM GATS.

It reminds me of that scene in spiderman when he becomes "cool" wearing all black and walks down the street thinking he is the shit when everyone one is like "lol wuts up wit dis nigga".

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2lju1vCkfmk

I can see this happening in a major metropolitan city like NYC or London but you're assuming this will happen everywhere. It's just such a personal experience I wouldn't list it as a reason why he should get the MMMs.

Lining is indeed leather, but the insole is of a soft synthetic material that is replaceable for 2$ in some ebay stores. I find wearing the BD Gats easier to wear without socks than the Margielas when I tried MMM's in store. Bottom line for me was just that they merit so much for the price, and they look more versatile than the adidas. They have a more warm color scheme than the MMM's, too. It's a cream, not a gray.

Yeah, that looks right. What kind of differences are there between Sambas and Samba classics? I tried a "Samba Classic" at a few stores before, and they really felt pretty uncomfortable. I like my Stans, but if ordinary Sambas feel more like the Samba Classic, I'd rather not get them altogether.

Can you explain to me why it's worth buying Visvim sneakers? I never really got it. The designs aren't that original, and I'm sure you can get better versions of Chucks from other designers for less that are still really good quality.

Also, is $70 for a pair of regular GATs justifiable?

For me and most others that buy vis usually buy it after trying it on. The quality is second to none but the American/EU retailers that sell for the price aren't worth it. I bought 2013 Visvim Lhamo Folks for 430$ from a proxy while the price from a retailer like END or Norsestore or BB are around 700$. The Kudu suede, the leather insole, the cuff, removeabe flaps, and just the construction make them so worthwhile and very versatile.

I found the CPs in about the $100 price point, which is more comparable to Bundeswehr GATs.

>Pic Related, it's what the CPs look like. There's a scuff on the right toe and some wear on the inside of a heel cup, but it's not visible from the outside.

I had the JC Pennys GATS and I only bought them because they were like double clearanced, they were 15 fucking dollar.

They held up amazingly well for an entire year surprisingly, only to be destroyed at a concert when a million people stepped on them.

If that would not have happened I foresaw them lasting a couple more years.
