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

Ordered the RF 7000 from Slam Jam cause Kith was sold out...shipped tuesday and they are being delivered today from Italy. Crazy fast...but i got hit with customs like i was hoping i wouldnt. $200 must be that magic number as I have never been hit with customs on overseas purchases before. 56 dollars

Yeah $200 is where the fees come in. Although i still don't know if they have to be under $200 (including shipping) to avoid fees or if just the shoes before shipping can be under $200 to avoid fees. If someone could clarify that would be great. But Holy shhhh $56?!?! I paid $23 on a $240 order from suppa. Although i never paid the fees through fedex. They make it complicated as hell, i just waited til the bill collector's hit me up and added their $2 in fees and paid online through them lol.

If someone could clarify that would be great. Either way it will probably be around $20. I paid $23 on a $240 order from suppa. Although i never paid the fees through fedex.

I had to pay 56 dollars. Shipped DHL.
 
I got my RF 7000's yesterday. I got the same size as my N9000's a 10.5. And there is no way I could have gone down a .5 from that. They would have been unwearable.

I'm assuming that means you went down .5 from your tts (non-diadora sizing)? If so, those who went down .5 should be safe.

For the SJ, I wish I went with my asics sizing (.5 up from tts in nike). I went tts and my toes are jammed in the front

I guess what I was saying if you sized down from your normal Diadora N9000 size good luck with that.

Yea I don't think anyone did that, at least I hope not. If anything, people probably bought their normal N9000 size, which imo is bigger than the V7000.

Pair just arrived and man o man am I glad I copped.

Very very nice shoe.

Reason why I think they are fitting a little more snug than usually diadoras is do to this insole:

Agree with everything, these will be regarded as one of the best releases of 2015 and probably Ronnies best work of 2015. And yeah, tha insole is pretty thick and spongy although I think these fit bigger than the slam jams
 
^ not necessarily.  Depends on whether or not they report to the credit reporting agencies.  

Stuff like non-paid shipping fees probably wouldn't report.  
 
I got my RF 7000 today as well. 

Sizing. I went with my NB 997/998 size and they are a bit smaller than those but not .5 size smaller. Im a tts 12 and the 11.5 i got is perfect. 

Materials. Suede is NB quality. Leather is good. Leather insole is nice (extra padded too)

Quality. Great on my pair not any unusual glue stains and the shape is nice. Only negative is that it looks like the paper wrapping may have rubbed off on the right toe (can maybe see below, its light)...havent tried to clean it tho. 

Love the toe. Gum sole is straight fire.

If you pay fees from a bill collector doesn't your credit score take a hit?

I hope not lmao. I never thought about it, fedex just made it such a pain in the *****. I think the only way to pay is by mailing a check. I have never used a check or even had a checkbook. Im a master procrastinator so i just said fck it.

Yeah I've never seen a pair for under $300 lol. I've been waiting for one DS for like $250-$300 but I doubt it'll happen. I think they're nice, but not nice enough to drop $300+ IMO

Call FedEx and you can pay over the phone with a debit or credit card.

Thanks guys, They aren't DS, but based on pics they do seem to be in good condition. Haven't seen a pair in my size for this price in a long time either, i'll probably grab them. My hanon pack needs to be completed.
