U81's sole is somewhat more durable than the mainstream OTs. but if you walk properly, it should be able to last 1 year at least, not including rainy days.

Tat means lifting my feet and gliding in rainy days ar..

Thanks!

if you know how to glide properly then yes...

 

[marines07]

since we are on topic of soles ....

are OTs still slippery as before on wet surfaces?

 

[Bullseye]

depends on which model u buy lah.

cool, so which models are less slippery? the only thing putting me off buying OTs is because of the non-grip soles.

 

[xiao ming]

actually i dont know which one less slippery, but i know Injector DX is one of the poorest soles for rainy days, but good for normal days.

Runspark and Mex66, Mex 66 Lauta, Baja all have spiky soles as they are meant for running/sprinting, not literally.

Coolidge series gives much better grip on damp floors as compared to Mex66.

great info ... thx both.

it's kinda hard to test in shops as its all carpeted, so this is very helpful.

I find that Mexico 66 gets botak more easily.. the 'spikes' dun really offer much grip. Just my 2¢

 

[Ryoshi]

i only have this...

ya.. agree about the grip of m66.. during rainy days must walk cautiously.

Got a question about OT shoes.

Is OT shoe lasting enough for daily wear? Cos planning to get one Ultimate 81 and wear to poly everyday or alternate days..

so far me got 2 pairs of OTs .. both e soles are still intact & yet to wear off .
roughly ard 3yrs of daily usage .

e one with e jagged edges quite alright to wear on rainy days but not for e plain ones .
walk with extreme care .

Hi guys,

can help me check if these OT are authentic? the front seems a bit weird to me.

sorry for bad quality pictures, taken from my phone.

 

[Erwinlow]

How much is a pair of OT in Singapore? like above $130?

Far east plaza has shops selling them? where else?

yes confirm plus chop above $130.

FEP has very very limited variety, and I rarely go to FEP these days.

the list of shops have been mentioned many times, take 10mins to browse through the thread.

 

[fantastic!]

anyone can help me along?
