So this leather is completely fucked, right? Time to return my

real leather has a grain unlike the perfectly smooth fake plastic pleather your plebeian eyes are used to seeing

This looks completely normal
See >>10737910

baka

Thought they were much more smooth when I tried them on in store. Maybe I was tripping.

Depends very much on the leather. SLP and KvA sneakers use a totally smooth leather with no grain whatsoever.

>>10737905
These look like Raf Velcros to me? You should check what kind of leather Raf Velcros are, because those might be fake.

>>10737930
>>10737921
Yeah, they're Raf Velcros.

They're calf leather from my quick search just then. I bought them from an actual store, so they wouldn't be fakes, I'd hope...

>>10737945
it's leather dude

how much did you pay

>>10737949
They just look different to my vague experience with them and all the other leather shoes I have. Just being paranoid I guess.

450 dollarydoos.

>>10737962
Don't they cost 650+ usd?

I don't know OP, every single pic I can find on Google, the leather looks smooth, unlike yours. I would totally suspect them to be fakes. But then again, can't really tell from one pic.

>>10737981
is pigfuck back already

This is the state of the board. I honestly can't believe that you would spend 450$ on shoes and you can't even recognize grain on leather lmao

>>10737970
Copped them on sale, they're definitely real. As you said the leather's usually appears smooth.

>>10737981
The level of asperger's is unbearable. Better to look like a pleb and check it out rather than be unsure.

You got a shitty cut of the leather OP, the horse was really old when they killed it. Its real, but not the best. I would not be too happy

>>10737905

>>10737910

Not true.
My CPs and Rick Owens have smooth leather very much like

>this fucking thread
>cunts have never seen what good quality calf leather is.

>>10737905
nigga you need to get the fuck out
never seen a man play himself so hard

It is full grain leather. Not grain corrected leather which is smooth because it's sanded

Inconsistent grain is just a feature of the shoe?

>>10738465
Ouch, that's pretty bad

>>10738465
No it isn't, you could expect from a high-end shoe to have top-grain leather

Op sell them to me for 450?

>>10738465
No need to be so anal about it just wear it in like your supposed to and it would've ended up looking like that anyway

>>10738531
>not knowing what leather grain is
This board lacks basic information holyshit

>>10738465
It's definitely cutting corners. It doesn't affect the quality of the shoe or leather itself but those leather pieces shouldn't have been used.

>>10737905
retard teens

this is what all raf fans are like though tb.h

buy shit thoughtlessly and are just bare dumb

I now realize why they were on sale

>>10738656
End of season sale. I just copped a dodgy pair.

>>10737905
>>10738465
this happened to my CPs after they were blasted directly with AC on a 4 hour long drive through the desert

>>10737905
return them and order new ones

repeat if needed
