online stores, and ebay, have these for much cheaper,
although you have to hunt around for your size..

ugh, i found my size but i don't get my first paycheck until the 21st.

my life is incomplete without these shoes.



edit: actually they're not quite my size. i forgot about the US/UK conversion. they're half a size too big BUT CLOSE ENOUGH!

yeah, i'm getting some also, but the collector in me won't let
me wear them......for fear of messing them up...

and you, will you wear them?

don't forget to check the images of the shoes that you purchase (especially on eBay) - there are definitely some fakes out there. Like, they won't have the different labels on the back of each heel. Like, "Tomato" on one and "underworld" on the other... I was only able to buy the Ian Brown ones, and for example - they've got "ian" on the back of the left shoe, and 'brown' on the back of the right

...basic rule of thumb, if they're not crazy expensive ... they're probably fake
(b/c if I remember correctly, even their original retail price was something like $150)

i was also a little worried my gf may have run into a faker, specially after talking to Yannick ( damn you ), but after researching, i am teh proud owner of authentic UW/ Tomato shoes.
i am in heaven...i remember when Adidas came out with all those 35th anniv shoes, and i thought, damn, theyre expenso.
i figured one day id have the $ to buy them.
i am loved...
now, wearing them out is a whole other matter.
my dream...have rick and karl sign them ( i'd consider us ' even ' ).
my reality...maybe wear them in the spring and summer.

Joe - are the Ian Brown's the blue and red ones? I always liked them, but wished they'd been black (sort of a theme in my wardrobe, doncha know)...
