It was close... I wear mine often now too, but the original was different.
I say the original was better, but that's probably my nostalgia talking.

I had this fitted back in '08 even though I wasn't able to get the Lavas back then

I don’t remember what they were like other than they turned heads at school. I was the only one with them.

It is with great sadness that I had to return both my 8.5 and 9 today. I have a very high instep and the stitching where the toe box and tongue meet just hurt too bad on my TTS (8.5) and it still hurt on the 9 — plus the 9 was too loose. Too bad, they looked great.

What's an instep?

Basically, the top of my foot is really pushed up against the top of the shoe at all times if it doesn’t have enough depth to it, so if there’s significant stitching, it just digs into my foot all day and ends up killing it by the end of the day. I have a high arch and instep so it’s a pain to find shoes that fit good.

I noticed that on my left shoe where the strap is from the tounge on the inside it’s kinda bunched up and makes it uncomfortable for my instep

I know what you’re talking about. I’m getting a noticeable amount of pressure from that tongue and toe box area.

Patiently waiting to get my pair. I took off Friday and Saturday and FTL updated tracking showed they were delivered Friday. No worries. Gives me something to look forward to in regards to heading back to work, lol.
On a positive note, here is my submission for @scollard23 CeriseWeek. I remember getting these as soon as someone in this thread said they were available via SlamJam Socialism in Italy. Signed up for an account and 1st order got 15% off. Should have got 2 pairs. I love these SO MUCH!!!
Wore these all day yesterday and wore them to see the production of Jesus at Sight & Sound theater with my wife. It an amazing play. And these were very comfy for the hour drive to the Lancaster, PA countryside (where the theater was).

Yep. I ordered the IIs this time, but so far all of the II designs (including the hybrids) have toe boxes that crush my toes as I walk. I wear them to work sometimes anyway, but damn. What I do for fashion. The IIIs and IVs are far more comfortable to me.
Lavas and IIs in general were never really my thing but gotta say that's all yous peoples fault. Really been growing on me since I started following this thread a few years ago.
Not sure what I'd do with a I, but I would definitely be all over more IVs and an LWP for sure.

I'd kill for an LWP retro. Played on the HS tennis team in the black/dark teal pair and LOVED LOVED LOVED THEM!! So much so, years later, I found a near DS pair on eBay and still have them today. Still wearable due to the type of midsole (won't crumble). Love them SO MUCH!!!

I’ll take a pair of those volts off your hands. Been hunting for quite a while and waiting for another release.I bought 2 Cerise. Liked them but didn’t love them honestly. I wore mine a handful of times and I sold off my unworn pair. I still have the 1 now but can’t seem to get rid of it.
kb24strikesagain how many Volts did you buy? 4 Volts 4 White Volts for me. 2019 Hot Lava not pictured.

He said the Atc II line was one of his favorites and showed the US Open 1’s.
