Double post but Call Me 917 x Simple Shoes collab coming soon.
Two has-been companies that are still alive somehow.
I can’t say I have a sense of fashion, but I am honestly pretty down for this collab (though too poor to give any money to anything that isn’t on a sale). I owned a pair of OG’s when I was younger.
I’m assuming it’s gonna be a colorway of the chuck “inspired” shoe. Hard to say though because I don’t think that tongue strip would work well with that model.
Im excited to see this shoe. The 917 blazer was fire.
I'm not denying that the DNA of the shoe will come from the S1 (chuck looking one)
but it appears that there are some differences when you compare this little sneak peak to the S1
-lace type
-no tape on the tongue or collar of the shoe
-obviously the 917 pull tab
-no metal eyelets
-that notch on the tongue that the laces go through (dont know the name) is only 2 laces down as opposed to being 3 laces down on the S1
Im bored at work so comparing the two helped pass some time. Would be pretty cool if they were releasing a new model and the collab was the way to do it. Kinda like the new Lucas shoe that was originally dropped as a Palace collab.
