Me too.   They’re a tribute shoe, so it doesn’t hurt me if they want to have fun with it

I'm getting heavy Fruit Stripe gum vibes. Is there a zebra somewhere in the design?

Obviously the colors are a bit fugly as they have to use the Ebay signature colors but its a pretty cool rendition of a chopped up shoe. The clear all the way to the sole really does it for me.

For any dummies like me who couldn't figure out what the plastic bit in the sole was these pics show. Unfortunately I'm now off these as they look like what Id call ankle breakers.(shoes where your heel sits really high on a narrowish sole and isn't really cupped in)

not that i'm in the market, but these would be sicker without the logos(obviously), with the lacepanel not fraying out into triangles, but being tucked in, and with the runner toe being more like an actual runner toe than just a stub. that's something i hate about a lot of runner inspired models, why chicken out of the actual runner toe? i don't think it would affect skateability a lot. faux runner toes make a shoe look really cheap imo. EDIT: i mean i guess this comes pretty close, but the foxing/rubber on top of it makes it look more like a faux runner toe.

I heard for December. Probably the last QS of the year if they do drop then.

i'm in this boat now too. i went ahead and read up on the background of it all having no idea this was some semi-deep sneakerhead lore model, but the story totally validates making these ridiculous kicks

This is/was my main complaint with the classic Cortez model (and the contemporary Adidas model; the Country) that these were based on, and also my reluctance to actually try these. Something about the heel design for me; it's like there's a seemingly built-in/designed tendency for ankle rolls especially once they are broken in. For me, they (the Cortez) are comfortable for chillers though - walking in a straight line - on an even surface. I also like the aesthetics of the OG model.

I mean, the OG Cortez has for sure withstood the test of time and has remained in their line-up forever so maybe we're in the minority opinion.

But the designers, IMHO, for some reason put in a lot of hard, straight lines, and angles and those upset the simplicity of the original shoe. It's like a bizarro-world version of the Cortez.

At least they stayed true to the ankle roll in the original design? lol. IDK.

Walking in a straight line I agree with 100%. used to actually have a little collection of Cortez like models Montreal's, waffle racers, some nb, Adidas and ASICS. Ive told the story before but years ago I had to see this physio/ankle surgeon and he was like all these shoes are garbage get rid of them. Also showed him skate magazines for references to skate shoes and he was like no no no this is all bullshit, air bubbles are stupid, why would you walk around with your heel up higher than your forefoot? He basically told me to skate in shoes like Stan Smith's.

Forgive my ignorance but where does it say that these are going to be a model that is continuously stocked? I hope it’s true. I’d love to be able to regularly buy a dunk for retail to skate in.

I don't think they are going to be continuously stocked. They're just being praised because it's a basic colors rerelease that everybody has been begging for since the original OLs dropped.

I really hope i'm able to get those black/white dunks. I wanted those so bad when they dropped before and i won't spend resell on them.
