Carol surely sucks at womens wear.

[Faust]

Shit got real. En garde!

[Rei]

I am afraid it won't. Wear thick socks and don't use them as walking shoes.

Really? Any idea why this happens, could it be that they're too loose or too tight? As it feels just right otherwise.

[lowrey]

is it the edge of the heel "patch" thats rubbing?

Could be either. Mine are half a size large and I have this problem. Although I have specifically asked and many other members said that they don't, so I guess that if you get the size perfectly right, it should work.

Nope if I understood you right :p
The vertical seam beneath the zipper is where it's rubbing. Has this slight bump, due the leather being thicker there, that's kinda in the way of my heel.

Carol may be called many things, and he surely sucks at womens wear,
but one thing is certain................He has created a sneakers that is unrivalled in the designer sneaker market...................

I dont see any sneaker coming to top this..............

at a price point that is also unrivaled. I think I dig the sneaks and would love to own them but I've only just viewed them in pics. however, their stratosphere price point would pretty much preclude me from wearing them the way I wear sneaks.

mine started hurting after the 3rd wear or smth, hurt so much that i stopped wearing them for a month or so.

but i think the leather finally softened enough, and the problem disappeared after a while.

hm, i'm still not sure that it's possible to wear em as sneaks (but pardon me, I'm just try em two times), so, if we talk about em as sneak-shaped boots - price is not so high.

I still say they suck.

why? was there any discussion that I've missed?

Ok, different part than what I was thinking but pretty much the same problem.

you could try to covering that part with a heel pad / liner. I've used these once to cover up a part where the edge of the leather was rubbing in a similar way, might work here as well?

Or, it might soften over time like nictan said.

oh, at the time they came out, plenty! it's just a personal aesthetic preference.

Alright thanks, will give it a go if the problem still persists after some time.
