    Don't buy them unless you have seen them in person..They were on my list but once I saw them in Julius flagship store, I didn't even want to try them on. They made the White heels so exaggerated that people from two blocks away can see the heels from OUTSIDE OF the sneakers clearly. Imagine the Nike version of Geobasket made for women with a Visible "hidden" heel.

    To answer your question Yes you will look like you are on heels for sure... I'm sure you don't have a problem if you are six foot three

      Hah thats unfortunate,i am from Greece so as you can understand there is no possible way of me going to a Julius store. Im 5'8" or 174cm.


      If the foot rests around the grey or till the green line its ok.But if it starts from above the green or around the red area then its definitely not for me

      I was looking for sizezip sneakers,thats all.If you have anything in mind...I once saw a Julius pair of black sneakers with sidezips on yahoo acutions but i forgot to save the photos and now i cant find them anywhere

        One of those cases where the design is beautiful but they look a bit insane in person unless you're really trying to look like an upper crust Gundam.

            It's really the combination of being so big while also having the hidden heel. I had them on my list until I saw them in store.

I have the hooded cardigan in virgin wool and it is nice, but not holy shit nice, for reference. The psychoknit felt holy shit nice to me but not practical enough.
                Currently also deliberating between several different fabrics for my next rick sweater. Does anyone have experience with the kangeroo pocket turtleneck sweaters from Gleam F/W10? The current owner admitted to washing it and I'm wondering if that may have affected the knit.

                  As long as he did the wash by hand and flat dried it, there should be no problems. I've done the above process on CCP, RO, BBS and Julius sweaters of all compositions with no ill effects to the knit.

                    Make sure you get a good picture of the season label. If it shrank from washing, it won't lay flat.

                      Rick's geobaskets? A bit chunkier but somewhat similar size to the prism sneakers you were asking about..

                        How does SpenceClothing get all their older season stuff in brand new condition? Are they a cosignment?

                          Anyone know if Astaires have room to be let out in the waist? Thinking about buying them or another pair of pants, but I never see Astaires with a 39-40 cm waist.

                            Unless I remember totally wrong, theres max 1cm extra in the back seam at least on current season ones.

                            But what do you mean with a "39-40cm waist", measured across or what? Isn't that like a size 46?

                              The same way yoox gets it.

                                Yeah across, that's a 46 usually, but when I look online it seems a lot of the 46s have 42 cm waists or something.
