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

Anyone going to be at solebox next weekend? I'm trying to get my pair secured just incase.

Just got my gold n9000 I haven't really peeped them closely but I was immediately saddened by the made in Taiwan sticker on the insole. When I get back home ill inspect them closer and try them on and take some pictures. If I knew they weren't made in Italy I wouldn't have pulled the trigger but o well **** happens.

This is a strange one as the diadora uk IG account says they are Italian made. And the price as well was a lot more than what the GR made in taiwan pairs are going to cost. I suspect the bulk of the shoe was actually made in italy but for legal reasons they couldn't say it was as there was a small part that wasn't?...

Yep I saw that also I might send them an email just to find out for sure what happened. I'm not really "give me my money back" mad but maybe I should be because it was a misleading advertisement and I did pay almost 180$. It seems kind of sketchy but you might be right about the legal reasons thing but ill have to ask to be sure. I remember on twitter it saying both the shoes and the jacket from the pack were made in Italy, but on the website only the jacket said that specifically not the shoes. So I became convinced by the price and the information I had that the shoes had to be made in Italy but I should have know better.

That is pretty cheap, but I'm sure the international shipping fees will end up making it not such a great deal once it's all said and done.  At least that's been my experience shopping on klekt.  

That being said, the pair of size 9 Italias I'm selling (see signature) ends today and they're going for alot more than that already.
 
Just recieve my sol. The us 10.5 one fit me prefect!

If I try to take the sombra, should I get the 10.5 too.? ( are these also 0.5 size down compare with other n9000 model.?)
 
Why would you get 10.5 in sol and not the same size in sombra?

Coz I heard a sizing issue at the previous page that sol does running bigger than sombra and other models. If sombra and sol are running at the same size . I will loo for 10.5 instead of 11
 
^^ they're all the same man, if you half size down on one pair of n9000's then half size down on them all. if you stay true to size then stay true, this is pretty much my motto on most shoes.
 
I half size down on my other N9ks, but i went a full size down on the Sols and Sombras (my usual N9k size was OOS) and they actually fit me perfect. The 24kts fit slightly big. But if you stick to your usual N9k size you should be good, and it's a safer option too.

Thanks man. I will hunt for 10.5 sombra then . Cannot wait to finish the 48k collection
 
Not true there is zero consistency in the n9000.....Both Hanon's and 24's are a .5 difference....The first Patta is a full size big
 
i dont see how you guys think the sizing is so different. if you hold them up to each other there is zero difference in length. i just went and compared all the pairs i have which are all us 10's. not one looked longer or shorter. maybe im blind lol but whatever.

I am no problem with the length but I have a wide foot. The size I take the sneakers are depending on the material
