New to the Family. Was waffling on these all spring and finally caved (thanks, Eck). Idol Brooklyn FTW. Great service and good people. Ordered yesterday and received today.

How did you size those alex?

 

[AlexanderTG]

I'm a 42.5 and these are 43. They're a bit snug but I'm sure they'll break in.

They're definitely not for everybody. But I love slip-ons and have been lusting after them for months.

 

[nicelynice]

I was looking at these, think they might just be kinda stupid, though. Also leather without socks that I can't wash easily? Hmm...

 

[AlexanderTG]

I'd be more worried about the nails than the leather.

@AlexanderTG

how are they? is the leather structured enough to provide some kind of support?

would love to see a fit pic when you get the chance ...

i'm interested – just trying to avoid slipper aesthetic


& can anyone ID the Jan Jan slip-ons featuring in SZ-Mag? (link is back a page)

These are obviously reverse.

Probably not taking too many fit pics with these. Nobody really wants to see hairy bare legs up close. I just knew the leather would be incredible and it absolutely is, no matter how much they may look like slippers (which they kind of do). I just wanted to totally ball out in shorts and tees for my own sake. These totally do it for me. It seems like a natural progression.

They're more structured than I expected as the leather is thicker than I thought it would be. That said, it's more Guidi "meat sock" than A1923 post-apocalyptic standard issue.

 

[skeen7908]

Yeah I've always been tempted by them

Would prefer a white pair for summer, but couldnt be bothered figuring out the difference between all the codes.
Maybe the woven ones would be cool too (literally)

CCP AM/2601L BIUS-PTC/19 bison tornadoes incoming. You guys are a bad influence

I hope I can get away pairing them with non-100%-streetgoth fits

i am digging this look, but i think you need a longer and draper shirt because the jeans are drop crotch it unbalances the look.

 

[sepp]

Thanks for the suggestions guys.

So basically baller boots, jacket and pants are covered here. How about shirts or tees? LOL!

Seriously though, Mr. H got some nice selection of short tees (LUC) but I just cannot bring myself to get those compared to my daily basics of Uniqlo and Muji.

Price aside, I find it tedious to care for them (hand wash / dry clean). Right now I just chuck those sweaty used tees into the washing machine and be done with it.

Those BIUS/01 and BIUS/10 tornados just arrived from the seller on sz

The white is awesome, really like the oxidation stains. Will post some of my own photos

Size 8 but they fit pretty well on my size 42 feet, maybe slightly loose but perfect with insoles or thicker socks. Very happy, because I was worried.

Ive also noticed that the boots have a very similar smell regardless of the leather type or color

Nah gr@ild. Someone relisted theirs after I badgered them enough and I jumped in it. 19 is dark grey-black
