shoes

I did see them available in a sporting goods store in St Louis. Johnny Mac is the name. Tried them on. They fit nice and are light. I had to go 1/2 size larger. They were $99. So I bought them on line at Finish line. Thanks for the promo code. Paid just under $80. Can't wait for them to arrive.

My Zigs arrived Thursday.
Lightest shoe I have ever worn. The Comfort was good and support good.
I wore them for a GV scrimmage Saturday. The only small
thing I noticed is that since they are patent leather the shoes are very warm.
I will wear them this season.

They are not available in any stores in Canada and FinishLine doesn't ship to Canada. Gonna have to wait for a bit I guess.

Not as cheap, but I saw Honigs has them. Their website really didn't address shipping policy

I like em!

Bought a pair based upon comments here. Wore them for the first time tonight in a double header. Loved the shoes...although I do agree that they felt warm. Best shoe I've had to date!

Hence why many of us come to the Forum - to learn something or get a tip.

I never thought about this. However, I will for my two scrimmages this weekend.

So far I'd agree.

Zigs

Mine arrived Wednesday. Patent leather version. I get to try them out in a BV Saturday night. Hope they hold up to the hype!

Footlocker and Eastbay both carry the patent leather. Are you saying they'll ship the swede to Cananda but not patent leather?
