that's why i've been putting off getting a pair, they're kinda gross. an awesome concept, but gross all the same.
at least they look sturdy. better for kicking phil's ass. do they feel like they'll last?

edited to say: its kinda funny that the name BLACKspot sneaker has stuck.

I haven't walked around in them yet. They seem to be put together nicely though. Good stitching,

Mainly with the way they were produced vs. sweatshop labor. Also, the idea of creating an anti-label, culture jamming, etc.

ummmmmm.....I don't know about those of you who are complaining, but $61 really isn't that expensive, if they're a quality-made shoe.

I like my fluevogs, they're made in small towns in Europe, they're not vegan, but they're not sweatshop, and they're also not ugly.
And the last pair I had lasted like 8 years.
