Every picture so far the panel that wraps around the toe box up into the laces, (the lighter color green) the hair length is different.
Someone said in FB it's like when you run out of toilet paper, the paper at the end seems rougher. Well that's what happen in the factory, the suede is thicker or thinner because it was near the end of the roll.
The toebox seems to be consistant across the board tho.

Damn. International customers might have been better off paying resale and getting it shipped.

At least they shipped the shoes right away, so I don't regret paying $52 for shipping.
I hope customs and taxes will be less than €50, but I wouldn't bet on it.

Oh, you...
Never ask them about the value on the custom declaration.
We're screwed now.

Okay then.
I think sending out all international orders last, even after they have sent out orders that were placed days later, is annoying to say the least. Add the fact that they charge $52 for that (which, let's be honest is probably a lot more than what UPS charges them) and it's even beyond ridiculous. I simply don't think this is the proper way to run a business. Maybe that's why I'm not rich and famous like RF, though.
And yes, I knew or at least could have known all that before I ordered the shoes. And I could have chosen not to buy them. So my ordering regardless is partly responsible for them continuing like that. If there had been a realistic chance to buy the Sages somewhere else, I probably would have done that instead, though. However, I liked them to much to skip them altogether.
As a side note, SNS managed to ship my Primeknit boosts today. 2nd business day since I ordered, that is. Way to go, Sweden!

Maybe that's what's taking them so long. They are currently scratching off all the labels with wrong pricing to make the true value of the shoe known to customs.

#kithstrike meaning the restock that happened few days ago.

Right, I didn't know if you ordered on both the original drop and the Kithstrike. I did, and only my original order has shipped. I was just curious. Congrats though

In Denmark I sold my coves for about 450$ right after the drop. The resale prices are equivalently higher cause of the taxes
