I'm assuming that this rift preview being on SNKRs means it's a US release for the first time since 2015. But bummed no men's sizing

Picked up this 2004 pair. Reached out to a couple restorers. Even if I could do the glue myself, these had hard plastic tabs for the straps that disintegrated so I'm hoping they could make a reinforced slit for the straps.

finally came across a tread like this. These shoes are one of my favorites. I even wear them with Tabi socks. I have a grey pair coming from Europe. Will post when they come in. Till then… enjoy this pair I purchased years ago in the Og color

Yes! I thrifted those in Japan last year. I understand that colorway is coming back out soon in EU/Asia, if it's not already out

It's a shame that new rifts have mostly stopped at that size. My true rift size is 11M US, my concord pair that I found is a 12 and it's a little big.
The 2023 Kenya pair that I got is 12W US, and it's a littttle snug. Thankfully the neoprene is very stretch. I would prefer not to buy more 12W though.

Just got the bottom "bonsai" pair in from a reglue. I also had to DIY the elastic strap closure because the original plastic tabs broke off. For some reason, some rifts were made with external plastic strap holders, others had a slit cut in and reinforced. Of course now the elastic is starting to dry out lmao. Pro tip, don't buy 20 year old shoes. Will be on foot later today tho!
