Had a moment of weakness and was about to purchase the 2019 infareds 6's I missed. These people wanted a processing fee, shipping, and sales tax!!
F*** them j's n***a
Edit: Found somewhere cheaper and pulled the trigger....hopefully the soles are still icey lol
Infrared 6 my favorite shoe (doubled up every release since 2010, still have deadstock 2010, 14 and 19).
I've worn half a dozen pairs (in some incarnation of it or another, retail or i modded a 6 and made them such) over the past decade.
While the 2019 rendition has the best mold and NA on the back, it's easily the flimsiest of the Infrared 6 retro line.
2014's are tanks and I prefer them the most (the bright infra-pink also hits the loudest, so i'm partial to that).
Leather cut is so weak on the 2019's... even a double up, i don't feel Cozy Carl enough to wear them because they feel like they'll rip and torn.
Sure the comfort is a tad better, but i'll take the bulk and sturdiness any day of the physical year.
For what it's worth, i've worn the 2014 for 6 years now (they're my dog walkers/work kicks).
