** The Diadora Thread ** - Concepts "Rat Pack" N9000

^ Absolutely, man. These don't even make the cut with that material selection. I see what they're trying to do, but I'd still understand the concept with a high quality black italian leather.

the cw is definitely sick, and the little "bull horn" lace locks also add a nice little dimension to it.

i just think they od'd on that fur doe!

It's a little much, definitely not an everyday pair of kicks.

Price after U.S. shipping is going to be unruly 

probably, as long as they don't hit us with customs and they pop up online I'm not mad.

Was initially prepared to make the trip to neighbouring Bangkok for the toros, but man, I am a little uncomfortable looking at that thing.

I don't hate the mitas but they're not super sick. I hate orange shoes but at least it has different shades of orange in there and the yellow on the sole helps a bit...does mita ship to the us or is a proxy needed?

I like em a lot

And mitas are mita exclusive?

lmao is it weird to say my FAVORITE thing about the toro's is that bull lacelock. that ish looks so dope with

the combination of the fur it really exemplifies the concept they're going with. especially love the hints of red

for that "raging bull" effect.

yup lace lock is definitely a dope detail.

I'll pass on the 24KTS (and also the Mita) pair.

I understand the concept behind the Toros and everything. But the whole execution is way too literal and gimmicky for me. If a shoe is supposed to represent something, I'd prefer a design that hints at the inspiration and makes it visible for those who know about it but isn't too obvious. I think one of the problems/advantages (depending on your point of view) with Diadora releasing so many collabs now starts to surface: It gets harder to come up with a simple cw that still stands out among everything done so far. So I reckon we'll get some other more "extreme" designs and colours this year.

I hope everyone who likes these will be able to get a pair. I reckon that there will be less people wanting these for themselves than usually but resellers will probably make sure these sell out anyway.
