And saw that it looks like a velcro version of the speedster. Note the forefoot rubber toe cap that was mostly cut out of the shot and it's got the Speedster heel cup. Some people will be very psyched about this....some will not. Who knows though. Maybe they have some other cool shoes too. We'll know soon enough.
Also, I'm glad to see people are all for Aaron having Mutton Chops. Nice to see some votes for the single side Mutton Chop too. Pulling for that one!!!!

Is it just me, or does the picture look a little photoshopped/off? Either way, this could be neat...
ReplyDeleteSteve are those velcro shoes I wear Sportiva? If so I could be excited about these. What do you suppose they will retail for? ce
ReplyDeleteMy guess is $145. I'll let you know when i find out. you should look at my speedsters to get a feel for what the toe looks like. very different and i, personally, am not a fan. esser really likes his speedsters though.
ReplyDeleteand yes, yours are sportiva...funny boy. Really you should get a pair of 5.10 quantums. you'd love em a lot. super shoe.
Just got my Quantums, and I am Stoked!!! In some other universe I was already enjoying them!;)

Quantums are so good. Really a spectacular shoe.
ReplyDeleteWell... I know my katanas and that heel is a Katana heel (velcro version)!
ReplyDeleteWell, it's similar looking but has a bit of a different construction to it. The heel on this and on the speedster has a smoother heel cup on the outside while the katana's outsole ends on the rear of the heel creating a bit of a lip. They also fit very differently compared to one another.
ReplyDeleteAnd if you want a velcro katana you should just get......well.....a Katana...
