They were running a promo last month at the launch of the site; sign up, get half off. Well that link was broken forever and they didn't have half sizes. Now they have half sizes and no code. Great.
All State or any other shoe company has to do is have hidden lace loops. that's it. stop my fucking laces from breaking and you can have all my shoe money.
i don't know why the fuck that feature is so obscure now...
i remember when some brands first started doing this; hearing all this shit about
'moving the loops up away from the toe so your laces don't even touch the grip' - turned out to be complete bullshit, probably just to smooth over this cost cutting measure.
some emericas had a flap all the way up the side, covering them up completely... never broke a lace.
it kinda coincided with the death of extra toe cap edging... another cost cutting measure, sold as an "improvement" - oh, now you get one consistent panel that won't tear off, though that one was kinda valid.
either way, not having a cupsole is a deal breaker for me as well.
