      Curious to know if anyone owns this particular pair of Officine Creative boots that Yoox was selling recently?



      I know it's a bit hard to see because it is greyed out now. But if anyone recognizes this pair and has some opinions about shape/quality please let me know! The Yoox pictures were terrible.

          That's a useful trick, thanks!

          Here is the picture of the boots then:



          Anyone have this pair or know more about them?

            I just received those OC boots that I was talking about above. They look way better than Yoox pictures and better than what I expected. Thought I'd share.

            Seems pretty solid to me. Unfortunately instep is too tight. Anyone know what other boots like these I can get for around ~$400? Even used? Been hunting for a reasonable pair of side/backzips like these. Wish these fit.



            Here are the rest. Didn't embed since there are quite a few.

              What size are they? I think recent OC quality is commensurate with their pricing. These look fantastic.

                They are a UK 6 / US 7. But fit one size large. The outsole is ~11.7 inches.

                  look like a prime candidate for stretching out? no seam running over the full length over the top of the foot. have you tried wearing them when moistened (spray) or asking a cobbler to stretch them out for you?

                    Yeah, stretch them out. Easy.

                      I haven't tried moistening them yet. I actually just got these in yesterday so I haven't tried anything with them just yet.

                      I was told that I could get the instep stretched out back when I owned a pair of Juns that I also had the same problem with. I was hesitant to do it at the time because I didn't know if that would affect the shape overall in a weird way. I didn't want to risk ruining the boots.

                      I'm considering getting them stretched this time though. Looks like maybe I just have weird feet.

                      Thanks for the tips guys.

                        When you go to Chris French, a block away is the Firm shoe repair. Take them there for stretching.

                          Oh yeah The Firm is right by Chris French, thanks for mentioning that! I was planing to get the boots vibramed there at some point if I got them to fit. My CF visit is probably going to be tomorrow, so will do it all in one trip

                                Has anyone seen the passport color RO footwear from this season? Is it blue or more like gray?
