The blue star colorway is called Black-Metal Sky. I saw them on the GGDB website but only in 36.
Thank you!
I have been eyeing these, when I read your post yesterday I was like "are we talking about the same one?", glad to know they are comfy!
Now I'm in between the first one you shown and the leopard I was talking about (Dorcast showed a picture)
I think it depends on how much you love leopard since it’s not as understated, but has the potential to be almost a basic if you wear a lot of dark solids. It’ll add a little sass to an outfit. I got the metal sky first then got the silver cuz I love the fit so much.
Haha y'all are not making it easy for me.
I had a leopard slide that I sold too, but not because I wasn't fond of it, the size wasn't quite right.
I always liked this particular leopard SS, but never got around to buying it, as I felt like my closet was overflowing too. But I've managed to empty it out a bit, so I'm thinking of getting one of the two pairs.
I like both, and am really hard pressed to decide. But the one pair os SS I kept are also black... And I'm a bit wary of all-leather still.
Long post, sorry! Thanks for the votes, guys!
Do you own the exact first pair? Or is it a similar one? I think you mentioned black laces on your original post, but these are gray...
I only ask because my experience with all-leather SS has not been great!
I don't think I ever purchased anything from the UK, let alone from NAP UK. Was it easy? Did you have to pay any taxes or anything? Please tell me about your experience if you have the time!
I think so too. Ad I do see the print as pretty neutral, as I don't usually wear much color or other patterns anyway!
Does anyone know a trick to doing the laces so you don’t have to tie them? Every time I try I have to much extra lace.
Actually I wasn’t paying too much attention to the laces, lol. The ones I have are black leather with black laces. One has a silver star with silver glitter. The other pair has a blue star with multi colored glitter. Love black laces, don’t know why.
I was skeptical of leather too since I’d tried ones on before and was kinda meh. But after I got a white leather pair with beading I decided to try leather again. I love the black leather ones, the fit is great for me but maybe not as good for someone with wider feet. My feet are a narrow medium and on top of that I have a high instep and small heel and they are rather boney, not a lot of padding. I wear 36 in superstar. I don’t wear may’s or v2 star because may’s are too wide and have no wedge insert, i had to size up when I tried those on. V2 star also has no wedge insert, more like vans/converse and I can’t wear those. I put a 1/4” heel insert in some of my other sneaker style shoes. Hope that helps.
I think you just have to find that particular one that fits you. I’d like another leather pair since I have so many suede and it’s been raining lately.
I just found my confirmation email. No taxes and it's free worldwide shipping over 200. Set UK as your country to put them in your basket, and fill out your US address for shipping. . If I remember correctly, I did have had to call them to get my credit card through, but I see my email receipt is is Brit Pounds. They were 287 when I bought them, which came to about $ 387.I don't think I ever purchased anything from the UK, let alone from NAP UK. Was it easy? Did you have to pay any taxes or anything? Please tell me about your experience if you have the time!
Thank you so much for being so detailed in your answer!
My feet are nothing like yours, lol. I'd say they're regular to wide. And fat ankles that I hate, sigh.
My favorite pair, and the only one I kept, is the black suede with silver that if memory serves me right, you also own! I think I'm in between sizes, and that one seems a bit smaller...
Oh wow, sorry for the trouble! But thank you, that's really helpful. And what a steal!

Yes, I have the black and silver Archive’s and still wear them a lot. I think they run a tad shorter than my other pairs. I guess I’m lucky, most of the time the 36 fits me.
Good luck finding a leather pair you like!
