They might be coming a lot later, Tanner.

A couple of us were looking at some photos of the first pre-orders last night. The lettering and designs on the shoes were reversed. From what I can gather, the WFPF is delaying the pre-orders as a result of this until the situation is rectified--which means that you're probably waiting longer, and you're getting a FREE DRAWSTRING BACKPACK (...) as a "thanks for waiting so long" prize.

Well I have been waiting patiently and doing my homework on shoes and I stumbled upon this thread and their site and they looked promising, but I am still not entirely sold on the shoe, even after the one review. Also the biggest problem for me is the fact that they aren't even shipping yet. 8-10 weeks and nobody has a pair to review yet anyway. I am beginning to lose some hope on these shoes because they are are the Duke Nukem Forever of shoes. Looks like I will be going with my first choice for shoes, but I won't discuss that in this thread, its not relevant.

As I understand it, one shoe had reversed lettering, mirror-imaging the correct lettering on the other shoe. I can't see why they didn't ship the shoes with the lettering reversed-- that actually seems like just the kind of funky parkour thing that I'd love to own!

Y'know, I don't understand it either--and you make a very valid point.

This shoe--as cool as it's supposedly going to be--is also going to be the death of the WFPF.

I'm just saying. They're great in the TV and promotion department, but as merch sellers...not so much.

It would be bad for their company to advertise one shoe and ship it different.

The death? That's a bit of a leap (pun intended).

max eisenberg · « **Reply #70 on:** August 30, 2010, 05:31:18 PM »

why does everyone want these shoes? many of us dont even have the right technique for these bad boys. too much padding, im sticking with my onitsuka tigers.

ever since i started ive been with asics, i dont think ill be switching brands any time soon.

Anthony Ruiz · « **Reply #71 on:** August 31, 2010, 07:38:04 AM »

I currently run asics but I want to try these shoes out as well

Tex__ · « **Reply #72 on:** August 31, 2010, 10:44:53 AM »

I got an email from them too a month back or so that the right shoe was reversed in the printing, I emailed asking if I could buy those too, but all they had was one sample shoe for the pic and such and it would be 4-6 weeks before they came.

Anthony Ruiz · « **Reply #74 on:** September 23, 2010, 03:09:40 PM »

Haha I was gonna post that xD but I went a head and ordered mine.

Austin"Yoshi" · « **Reply #77 on:** October 10, 2010, 03:48:02 PM »

after i get the money i think i might order a pair, only reason because there very sexy looking and there parkour shoes and seem like there pretty good.
But the main reason is because i need some shoes to wear in public that arent as ugly as the white and green ariakes xD

InuSKi · « **Reply #78 on:** October 30, 2010, 09:37:46 PM »
