the kirov actually came out right after the ariake. what elektrik is hearing about is the si18. personally, i think it looks like a good shoe, but it might be heavy...

Si-18s are awesome, but they've stopped production of them.  Last time I checked most places are selling them for around 40 or 50 bucks, but they're running low.

Crappy colors I know, but who cares?

or

This is one of the only stores in the US that carries my size.  Apparently there's still an abundance of Si-18s in the UK though.

The sizing seemed spot on to me.  You shouldn't have to worry about them running a half size small or whatever it was for the Ariakes.

so these aren't a new model if they have already stopped production? or did just no one buy them?

They've been out for at least a couple years.
