LOL. can't imagine how ppl can fall for that site. their ASICS logo is purely "copy and paste"

more comfy i would say. especially on the sole, which is slightly thicker than mexicos too.

so generally yeah, these are the strong points of the ultimate 81 that i'll consider to be more comfortable than mexico 66s.

if not mistaken, the ultimate 81 was inspired by the suction cups of the octopus' tentacles when mr onitsuka was dining in a sushi restaurant (dunno if i read the book correctly)
anyway (theoretically), the suction cups were claimed to provide more grip, just like the tentacles of the octopus. so i'd assume it to be more "grippy" than mexico but whether will it lose its grip on wet floor or not i don't know. haven't try it myself. someone care to volunteer?

haha. it's just from my personal experience after so many years buying and working with ot.

for the lautas, it's just the materials used and designs differ a bit. so i wouldn't say it affects much on comfort when comparing to their basic (core line) counterparts.

hmmm.. u're a bit late. y didn't u get it earlier?

just 2 weeks ago, THEGOODWILLOUT is still having them. went to check moments ago but the only 60th anni edition left fabre bl

years of homework i guess. hehe. i keep track of every possible release and collaborations of OT and dwell myself in sneaker/fashion blogs or sites like hypebeast, high snobiety, sneaker freaker, tokidoki etc etc. . . and the list goes on.
my previous work in a clothing store also requires me to do research on brands like ot, merrell, superdry, and all to feed hungry customers with info and to make sales.

or even nubuck cleaner.

until now i still don't know whether the tigers are on suede or nubuck

definitely 28cm

not wise at all.

those are ori. but the site selling them might not be selling authentic ones. chances of getting an authentic pair of tokidoki x ot mex lo is almost 0%, unless u're buying a used pair or a pair that is not your size at all (US 5 and 6).

i got my tokidoki x ot mex lo for almost RM700 after delivery and conversion. tokidoki x ot lawnship for around RM400. tokidoki x ot lunetta also around RM400.

bought the 1st pair from US, 2nd and 3rd ones are from AUS.

and yes, what i wanted to say was said by fixgd

good morning!
you guys liking the "AISEN" collection?

http://www.highsnobiety.com/news/2010/07/2...ingsummer-2011/

anybody needs/wants anything? i will be back in msia in a few weeks time.

is it possible for onitsuka tiger to open an outlet in malaysia?

sis came back for her break. i am united with my OTs. happy!

Added on September 27, 2010, 6:42 pmexposure = experience. i couldn't give u a definitive answer for that because the fake characteristics of tokidoki varies from shoe to shoe, depending where was it from. also, there are so many versions of toki x ot, which 1 were u referring to?
all i can say is that (in general), colour and placement of certain element are those that usually tell off fake tokis. ppl usually use this as a guide when purchasing toki goods ie. bags

hmmm if my memory still serves me well,
60th anni mex - 60 pounds
60th anni ultimate - 80 euros

BIG BIG NO

and all over the world

for those interested in rakugaki, u're in luck!
try email sportiela and ask them to check their inventory to see if there's any left. got mail from my old pal, earnie. told me that there are a few pairs left. odd sizes. that mail was abt a week ago, dunno if there's any left. cheers.
