"Honey, I think my eyes are getting worse."
"Well call Dr. Brown and get a new prescription."
"No I think I need a four thousand dollar watch."

CA, NY, or FL?I know of at least one…
Haha it’s all love! But yeah I wear contacts and my prescription is -6.50. Not great.
Back on topic - does this part of the shoe loosen up after a bit? It was pretty painfully tight this morning. Gonna wear them without the insoles (which are actually really high quality ) today when I play.
Oh so one of the reason I like Panerai is the vintage aesthetic and nostalgia factor. I prefer ones you have to wind yourself. You flip the lock and wind it up and it lasts 3 days or so. Where I used to work pretty much everyone wore Rolex, I think I was the only person who wore a manual wind.

The company basically almost went bankrupt, then Stallone bought a ton of the watches, gifted them to other movie stars and made them popular. If you watch any of those old school movies like Predator, Eraser, Rambo, etc. you can see him and Schwarzenegger rocking them, very much 90s action hero vibes.

I used to have a panerai, didn’t wear it too often, didn’t love the manual wind up aspect but I get it’s part of the experience. When I left corporate America, was glad to sell it and my breitling
Team Apple Watch now lol

Interesting.
TTS has worked fine for me, I know other’s have had different experiences. Length wise is fine, the only place I experienced any tightness is right here until I broke them in.

I go TTS on everything, have since I reached my adult size… including OG 2s. These were for hoop so if snug, I like that, but these are way too tight. Whole toe box is narrow af IMO.
I’ve pretty much skipped the Lebron retros except the mvp 7 which I went tts and they’re good, and sprite 8s which I saw people said go up 0.5. I did on those and they fit great (for casual).
I wear 13 so going up 0.5 is usually not an option.

Came in to see if there were Navy’s on discount and was instead educated on the Panerai family and the Italian Royal Navy. Only on NT can my love of shoes and analog watches be combined with the notion of me seeing my Optometrist. Hope my insurances covers Panerai

That’s where it fits tight for me too. Just finished doing a shoot around in them, switched shoes after. It’s slowly getting better.

Because they fit my feet fine tts? I just chalk it up to everyone's feet being different.
