Le Coq Sportif - the brand that makes grown men giggle.

Just ordered these R1000s on accident (the PayPal continue to ___ store to confirm and it actually processes the order), but was planning on picking them up eventually.

My TTS wasn't available (only whole sizes) so I went with a .5 up. Hopefully it'll be good.


Maan. Did that with uk site once. Needed a us 9.5 and got a UK 9.5. Noooooooo nooooo nooooo!

With the Kith deal....THE STRUGGLE IS REAL!
 
You should at least give them a call and see if they'll do a phone or email order.

Did. They were not cool about it at all. The guy didn't even know what brand I was talking about. It was hilarous hearing him try to comprehend Le Coq. "What's LELDKJFSKLDJFSIEURI!?" If that's the same people shipping shoes out.....KNOW YOUR RUNNERS!

Please explain to me. So the white pair has an orange toe and the black pair has a red toe? Or they both have red leather and orange suede on the toes??? Its driving me crazy.

From pics it looks to me like black/red, white/orange, but I'm sure someone who has them can confirm.
 
I wouldn't trust a color description by kith even if I didn't have the shoes in hand. But yes, I have both pairs because concepts seems to understand shipping processes, free of charge for that matter not to mention a 160 box price. Wow, This turned into a kith rant..

Eh, probably not. But if you value materials and craftsmanship, buy these now. They are in another league in that area. Best leather and attention to detail I've seen all year.
 
My boy posts on my timeline, need anything from Paris? Hell yeah I do. Colette had the whites!!! Sold out online though. I'd call em.

thats a stretch.  dont get me wrong, they are definitely nice.  materials are ok and for myself personally i love how they fit and they are relatively light.  first R1000 so i was unaware of how they would feel.  also i was surprised at how little padding there is in these.  oh and they are pretty wide, similar to NBs in the forefoot and the heel unit(sole) is wider than any runner i own..

now you want to talk about actual quality craftsmanship than you need to pick up the SF x LCS flash.  those are the best built runner i have seen short of a designer brand/shoe...imo of course.
 
Not to split hairs but it's not a stretch if it's my opinion..

More importantly, are you referring to the Summer Bay from last year? I've never seen them in person, but am not a fan of satin in general (assuming that's what the toebox is made of)
