So I contacted my Local balenciaga store and they're accepting prepaid store credit for the arenas when they receive their fall inventory. I kind of want a pair Asap and don't really wanna wait, Anyone know where I can find the red ones for a reasonable price? Please help me.

iv.) Do people recognize you're wearing $500 sneakers? (yes, I know that's not why you buy them, just curious is all)

1) 27
2) I'm a System Engineer.
3) I wear them any time I'm not doing anytime I go out. Chilling with friends. Going to the store/small/whatever. They are in my sneaker rotation just like any other shoe.
4) Some do, most don't. I wear them for me. Some ask me what are those, and I let them know. It's fun conversation piece like all nice footwear.

I'm newly married. And while I don't get a chance to get every sneaker I want, I try to bargain and squeeze what i can in here and there. You aren't married, so she shouldn't have that big of a hold on your wallet, IMO.

Correct. They will be coming out sometime in the fourth quarter along with the red pleated at Barneys and I heard the Balenciaga Boutique will have the Violet as well.

I ask because as much as I like some of the shoes in this thread, I don't think there's a chance in hell my girlfriend would let me buy them. And by let I mean she'd just clown me if she saw me wearing them. Further, I can't say I have tons of time to wear stuff like this -- like on the weekends when we're just kicking it around town I grab a pair of New Balances or Sperrys. Some of these seem SO attention grabbing, I'm not sure I could pull them off. But I reeeeeeeally love the simplicity of the Arena sneaker, and those pleated lows are super acceptable. Hopefully your responses enable me to justify a purchase or two. Thank you.

Great shoes, so comfy n clean looking

Multi color snakes look like the Jeremy Scott's that released earlier this year, the iv lanvins are a joke
 
Hey guys quick question please.
I've heard super mixed reviews from yoox.com are all there shoes 100% and is it safe to order from there? There is a pair of margielas on the website right now that I really want to order. Thank you
 
Balenciaga Arenas just arrived today. I thought i bought the Red/Gum colorway but its just the Red/Dark Red bottom pair. These fit big as hell, shouldve gone a size down. I threw a extra insole in there until i can track down another pair of Reds in a size 42

yoox is legit, never really heard or read any authenticity problems regarding that store.

More like brain washed. LOL It's quite sad actually. I had this one dude tell me that he didn't even like the Red Arenas, but when he saw Kanye wearing them he wanted it. :smh: Alot of people are getting caught up in the high end hype without really thinking on whether they like the shoe or taking into account the actual craftsmanship and work of the shoe. But hey it is what it is. LOL
 
Decided to wear my Balenciaga High Cotes Pleateds yesterday; light green although "Sea Foam Green" seems more fitting.

Also thanks, shoemasta72, BCBP, higuy, JackStacks & xbiker47.
