Yesterday I spoke at length about this project with one of the guys who got teh artist together for the project - he agreed this was ridiculous numbers. I also heard even teh artists didn't get a run - how crazy is that!

Kids here were camped out overnight at SUpreme and Fred Segals. I had read that each shoe was $100 a pair - Fred Segals were charging $200 + tax!!! The Kaws shoes did not even make it to teh shelves in LA, as they had 12 pairs in each design available at each store. Cartoon was impossible here as well, and Neckface.

lol...if you've read this far... here's some info you might want

I got the last 3 pairs form Fred Segal - that was $650 in shoes! One pair are in my size ( 8 ), two pairs are 11 - one of which is a gift for a cool friend of mine who I will see at COmicon - the third pair I offered to someone here not knowing their size, with teh fall back of maybe putting on ebay to help offset teh stupid cost before Comicon. Looking at the interest here - I'll forego that option and offer them up here at cost ($216). The extra pair I have are teh Sam Messer slip-ons.

They are going for so much on ebay. I'm only interested in the Kaws ones so thank you anyway! Good luck.
