chrome shoes??
 

whats the verdict?? they look pretty sweet

they've been compared to the Adidas skate slips.

I like the low tops, but then again never been big on mid or high tops.

Wow 90$??

i just bought a pair
AYHSMB

so, they are like chuck t's with black toes and 3X the $

They have too much of a "Payless Shoes tried to recreate the classic Chuck Taylors" look to me.

I actually really want a pair of "Arnhem"s.

damn, I though this was going to be about clipless shoes

They also have a fiberglass stay in the sole and are made of cordura. I'll wait for some reviews, but they may be rad.

i knew what this thread would be about, but i was secretly hoping it would be about these

they got rid of the milo that was a decent shoe

they look like a copy of the old vision skate shoe

Biking sneakers need reinforced arches/soles for braking, that'd be a real development.

**** you... I need those now... they match my sunglasses.

It'd be cool if they were clipless capable similar to these:

Any one every tried it or have any ideas?

sorry about the thread jack

Yes, that is what these things do.

Yep, that's why I ordered a pair. There are lotsa rad shoes out but impossible to find (like the vans supercorsa) so I was excited to get the email Monday. Only lame thing is they are made in China, but the Chrome dude convinced me on the phone I should buy them (he said there were no manufactures in the US capable of making them).

I don't get the point. Why make a sneaker stiff? Doesn't it suck to walk in these? If the shoe is primarily for riding, why not go clipless?

I meant braking like shoes on the tire... lazy but effective. Sneakers tear up awful quick stopping like that. It'd be a nice touch to reinforce that area of the shoe, that would really distinguish it from $30 chucks.

Soooooooooooooooooooo... Shoes should be specifically designed for the stupidest style of braking that like 10 people do? What? Maybe cars should be designed for easier e-brake skid stops? Seriously, Chrome should have made some decent looking clipless-compatible shoes so I could finally put those Smarties that I have hanging around to use. HUGE failure on their part.

Edit: Maybe I shouldn't say failure. Just a big missed opportunity. If they're reinforcing the soles already it would be a simple matter to make something that would work clipless, since the stiffness is already sort of there. Right?

u mad.

too bad they're not making their slip ons. heard those were cash

i kinda want to order them for the sweet water bottle

I like them in general. Except for the high tops. SHOES SHOULD NOT HAVE ZIPPERS. Ever. **** that.

yes the MILO slip on was a very comfortable and durable shoe it is really too bad they quit making them I would like another pair
