    I wasn't jumping on your nuts. I just thought that the question seemed rather irrelevant in the grander scheme of things.

    I find it a bit silly where the conversation goes from product, to personal details in regards to the designer or their company.

    But, i can see why you where interested in the reasons.

            i like these. a lot. they remind me of those old school sneakers from the breakdancing era of the 80s. which is a good thing haha.


            lack of laces makes them more versatile imo. can be worn with less sporty gear than the others can. to me anyway.

                          if you are unable to use a previous address, why not use the one on the new website?

                            if he isnt going to change his direction of the line, i see no point in changing the name (even then, i dont know). as you said lowrey, i think i'll stick to augusta. until i know why he changed it (if its a good reason) anyways.

                              Wouldn't the translation be "To Nineteen Twenty Three"? The word "a" in Italian can change meaning depending on context, but I'm pretty sure it's never used as the indefinite article.

                              Three words. If you're familiar with IPA: [a] [ditʃan:ove] [ventitɾe].

                              Otherwise, for English speakers it's roughly: A DEE-CHA-NNO*-VE** VEN-TI-TRE**

                              *pronounced roughly like a Minnesotan (ie. no diphthong). Also, the "n" is twice as long as usual.
                              **Note vowel length. Think of the vowel in "vet," not the vowel in "day".

                              And just put them together.

                                Yes but i believe the new name is "A1923, Simone Cecchetto" so the "a" in the url isn't meant to be translated to Italian.
