Hi all,

Do you know if there is anywhere I can get a new pair of these from in UK9 or UK10?

With kind regards

There were loads in TK Maxx last month. Your best bet is probably ebay though.

yeah so anyway... lost where the talk was of the last release... has anyoen actually got around to comparing the first retro to the recent retro of these things, I'm assuming the midsole is the same (can't remember if this got resolved and can't find thread) as the previous one (as in crappy)...

“Even when I say nothing it's a beautiful use of negative space”
The newer retros are much better than the previous ones. The upper has much better materials (suede instead on felt, nicer mesh and more shiny gold swoosh) and seems a bit flatter in shape if that makes sense like they are here. The midsole is roughtly the same thickness as before (although I've not compared the 2 next to each other) but is of the older style foam rather than the phylon type modsole they used last time round.

True, compared them to the older retros the other day. The newer ones are a definite improvement but still not a patch on the og's; the thin midsole and the wrong type of gold vinyl is still an issue for me.

I would say the Vector (I refuse to call it a Venture) is the closest to the OG out of the three V Series retros.
