Footwear?

Rum, beer, movies, nice websites, gaming, etc., without interrupting the flow of martial threads.

I was looking at the Feiyues on line, and they appear to be metric sizes. What would a size 12 be in metric? I'd like to order a pair to try them out. TIA.

I don't know what vendor linking is ok on here, but MAM has then for 16.14, was like 23 bucks or so shipped, and they have a converter. I'm an 11 and it shows to order 45, and 12's are a 46.

Oh yeah, if you get the Feiyues, get the black ones. They will make you look like a kung fu ninja.

Thanks. Btw, posting links is ok, EF isn't owned by a magazine like that other forum, so there's no conflict. ;)

Thats where I ordered mine from, but it's been 2 days with no email... So I don't know if I would recommend them just yet. It also has that conversion chart.

Know where I could buy a pair? A quick google search didn't yield a store. EDIT: Nevermind I found them, and pretty cheap to boot!

I know someone in my class that uses these, and they look great, but are hugely out of my price range.

I've been using one pair of black Feiyues for a couple years now. Though I try to do a bit in every pair of shoes I own. I got this dope New Balances recently that are the lightest shoes I've ever owned. It's like they aren't there. Lighter than Feiyues if you can imagine that.

MartialArtsMart has taken 4 days to ship my order.

I emailed them about it tuesday and I got an email saying wensday or thursday (looking like thursday now).

I'll try someone else for my next pair.

New balances are great too. I had a pair for a long time. The thing I don't like about them is that the soles don't have much feel for the ground.
Thats why I like feiyues, because they are almost like being barefoot. Can you tell me which model of nb you got? I'd like to look into that, since I go through a pair of feiyues every few months.
