I just received my platinum/black Free FK Chukkas from End. Quick shipping. These are surprisingly nice. This is first Free version I liked. The sole sits very flat like the lunars (unlike the SP university gold where the toe and the heel lift up from the ground), and the black Free cup basically disappears. I would say these are about two ounces heavier then the lunar chukkas, but no more than that. The shoe is still very very light. A few observations: The Free chukkas have a very lightweight flat lace (not oval) with interwoven reflective zig zag (somebody posted a pic of that a few pages back). Also, for some reason, the tape and loop on the heel section is at least half again wider than the Lunar Chukkas and uses a slightly different and more striated tech ribbon style material. The loop is also larger, but lays more flat. If you are a lunar FK fan, you'll like these a lot. Very low profile and this color way looks ridiculously good in person. Obviously the footbed is not lunar, but the shoe doesn't feel markedly different. As far as color, I took this in very bright sunlight with some exposure compensation, so the shoe looks a bit lighter than it really is. In person, the upper feels a little bit darker overall than in this photo.
