Victor Cruz Signature Shoe

My BBs come in tomorrow from villa, after seeing all of the pics can't wait to have them in hand.... If they do end the line at least they dropped 4 solid cw's ... I wonder if the plan for this line was to be just 4 and done.
 
I gave in and copped the blue's yesterday. I LOVE the color and architecture of the shoe. My only complaint is that I just wish the blue's had that smooth suede like the haystacks. I didn't get the haystacks because I'm loyal to only wearing Timbs that color, but the quality on the haystacks are A1. The Black Crimson are my favorite though.
The suede is better then I thought in person. Better then the blacks.
 
I hope it doesn't end with 4 color ways but if they release more colors I hope they are solid color ways like these are. I don't wanna see them get ruined with bad colors or hype. I do hope the Reds release because that is the best looking one for me. I'd get 4 pairs of those if they come out. If not I'd be willing to pay for 1 of them at least to wear. Don't ruin this shoe and put bad colors on it, I like the simplicity of this shoe.
 
I'm mad about my Haystacks. I bought from JJ during Thanks giving holiday. A Sz 8 that was flawless, but was a bit snug, I usually take out the insole but I didn't want to have to do that this time. I did an exchange for 8.5, and didn't do a thorough check first. When I got them home the left pair was flawless but the right was completely ****** up. Still factory tied, but it looked like 20 dudes wore them. Creases all over the toe box, harsh indentations in the toe box had these weird ripples in them and the material on the toe was scuffed up like someone rubbed it out with something sharp.

I couldn't get back to the store until the next wknd b/c of work, so by the time I went there they didn't have anymore in stock. Not the sz 8 I returned, or anymore 8.5. I found another JJ that had the wheats so I go there to do the exchange. I asked for 8.5 and they brought it out, doing that stupid thing where they give you one shoe and leave the box at the register. The shoe they gave me had the same ripples on the toe box, and weird scuff marks. I don't know where they come from. Asked for another pair, and the one I tried on :{was good, but the other shoe was ****** up :{. Staff was getting annoyed, and I don't like being a pain but I just thought about how mad I felt spending $150 on shoes with all those quality issues and said I'm not leaving until I get a decent pair. You are more than happy to sell me shoes with quality issues, but if I came in here to return a shoe looking like that you wouldn't accept it. I finally asked for an 8. That pair was much better, but still flawed. One small scuff on the inside of the shoe, and crease/dent on the right toe. Wearing it today for the first time, and as good as they look I'm so mad I returned that first sz 8. Quality control was bad on the haystacks, but my Mikes are good though. Cant wait to break them out for spring.

personally, I hope its done. I dont want to see ridiculous colorways being put on these. And I really dont want to see these all reds release

im not sure why
Well, with the success of the released color ways, I'd like to think that Nike wouldn't go crazy with the CWs. But again, there are some crap color ways that are released lol.

If only the Silver Wings were released.
 
The product cost was probably too high for Nike to want to continue the line. They used good materials on every release. Pretty rare for Nike.

I can't get with "Balenciaga Blue." (BARF). But the more pictures you all post, I get excited for Villa's pair to get delivered. I need to get that upgraded shipping next time.
 
The regret I'm feeling for passing on haystacks. Anyone recently tried to order through a stock locate at foot locker?

probably true. which is sad. cause this is how every release should be and the reason why i loved this line so much. the materials were good enough for me and it is a good looking shoe. rare for nike so i wish there would be more. only if they keep using the same or better quality though.
 
bought the blues today. on the strap on both theres a faint c with small "ll" looking lines. is it mines or common?
 
So Villa shipped my shoes got them this morning open box a damn 10. I ordered an 8.5 and the packing slip says 8.5. Smh

I'm torn. As much as I would like to see more cws, we all know they'd just release some crap that sat on shelves and give them reason to say "oh, football stars and Trainers as a category are just dead."
 
I got my blue suade shoes from villa today, nice shoe they have human imperfections but it's cool.... I love the hit of 3m on the laces
