Re: Carol Christian Poell



The thought is definitely there but I think others did Spring-y shoes a lot better (as far as shoes with holes in them goes). I also don't like the fact the rubber band doesn't even seem to really be working on keeping them fully closed. That big gap on the side is not too bueno.

But shit, it's one crap piece in a sea of stellar ones, so I don't think Carol is doing too bad.

Re: Carol Christian Poell



the hole is just too big and if you move it opens and shuts like a walemouth...totally unpracticable in my opinion and if you wear no short pant with it, the visible part doesnt look to good to me too.

And i am not sure if the heel is practiable too. As far as i could see it is made of little tiny cubes which are sticked into each other. What do you do if you need a new sole, i guess those cubes are not available on the free market, or am i totally wrong?

Do you wear the jeans stuck into the shoe or just regular? I could imagine that it looks good if you stuck it inside so the whole shoe is visible.

The perf pants remind me of some HL pants from many seasons (2001-02 ish) ago, good stuff. I dig em, and hopefully nobody else does, so I can cop on the cheap.

I also like the perfed ankle boots. Maybe I am some kind of Bizzaro-world CCP fan.

Re: Carol Christian Poell

[quote user="pipcleo"]and again...the perfed boots are womens wear.

2 pairs produced only.

both at em.

one left in black.

Saw those pantos (rings and belts) in the flesh and they're even less inpiring.

wont even comment on those perfed pants and jackets.

The new jointed leather in blue black is an exceptional colorway but fit probs for sure.

do you know the sizes of perf w boots?

Re: Carol Christian Poell



Yeah, true that. Question, what happeneds if the rubber pieces snap? Show over man, show over. Rubber tend to lose its elasticity through constant change of climate. I was considering in getting this style because I like the color of the rubber band with the boot plus I don't own a hawk eye style either.

The negative side of it is, I can only wear it one way, which is to tuck in my jeans or else I can't have the rubber band part shown. Also, what holds me back from getting it is what if the rubber band snaps or fails one day? Its not like any shoe cobbler will have a replacement in stock.

[quote user="Casius"]

Really?

I think those are the most unconventional, most useless boots CCP has ever made.

But that's just me. ;)

I did like those from pics too, but in real shape i cant accommodate to the stitching in the front. Looks a bit like mokassins to me...and you are right with the rubber band, Kurt tried to get into the shoes and had some trouble with it. Thats when i tought, what does happen if you use those boots for some time, will the rubber band come off? Will it loosen? Or maybe rip? Not sure...

Re: Carol Christian Poell



Yeah, the toe box is so flat, you have to size up anyways. Most CCP footwear do not have that issue, only a few do. Honestly, I may even have to get size 11, I just never had the opportunity to try it in that size. Who knows. Right now, I am just keeping my eyes out on those white CCP boots from Spring 07' a couple of the SZ guys own. [87]
