from what i was told by the SA, the year end period they usually dont bring in new stocks cos of inventory take. so maybe that explains why not much sizes left

interested to know abt the soles too...

whats the difference of 8130 and 875 ? design looks the same

 

[mikeeeey]

^actually the design is the same. only its black and its a discountinued model if im not wrong

 

[reverseBungee]

if i'm not wrong, the models i looked at is 6" Heritage Classic Moc and 6" Heritage Classic Round... not sure the colors.

 

[limz_777]

there is no stitching on the insoles for original RWs...
All insoles are made out of wood, hence impossible to stitch.

GG..

so the wooden sole is a tell tale sign of a fake rw , anymore other signs ?

 

[reverseBungee]

ask you guys something else... i very confuse now...
i went to suntec to try sizes, the lady bring me one pair to try.

looks like this one, Style No. 8131, classic Moc

but according to the webpage, it only comes in D. am i Right?
but yesterday the lady told me is "sizes 10 E"...

iirc, u continue reading further in this thread, the sole is leather not wood.

 

[limz_777]

then how spot a fake ?

 

[reverseBungee]

the answers is in this thread, read the few pages before and after the page u found that post.

 

[limz_777]

ah ok found it , by the way the fake 875 material look like 20 bucks shoes sold at mustafa

 

[kazuki666]

hi bro
where did u get ur 8165 ? us ?

thx

aiyo, just a few scrolls above i did mention federsports mah... :S
I bought mine from the people's park complex branch.

Hi guys recently bought my first pair of Red wings from Suntec.

After 1 month of wearing i notice there is some problem at the front part of the shoe

 

[mikeeeey]

^ i dont think thats a problem at all.

As long as the stitching dont break, theres absolutely 0 worry

Moctoe is made from 2 pieces of leather to form the front area. Theres bound to have such "splits", but the stiching will hold it well. Dont worry

 

[Dmaul77]

Yea it looks like more of the "character" of the shoes to me

Cheers

 

[huhu84]

ok noted !

Thanks for the info guys
