There shouldn't be custom fees if the pairs were ordered separately.

Dunno what it is, but with both these and the Oly 6s in hand I'm loving the 7s WAAAAY more now. Weird, since initially I (like most people) was way more hyped for the 6s and I've always found the 6 to be the better silhouette/overall cws.
Maybe it's also because it matches "better" with the jersey...despite Nike taking liberties with the cut/collar

Perfect summer shoe. Shorts and chinos only. AJ VII's just doesn't look good to me with denim...

Customs Talk - Culled from the FedEx website "Please note: As per the contract of carriage with FedEx[emoji]174[/emoji], the shipper is ultimately liable for any duties and taxes assessed on the shipment. If the recipient refuses the package or the recipient or third party FedEx account holder refuses to pay for duties and taxes, the original shipper will be billed for duties and taxes."

by law, customs can add the package values together if bought separately but in the same time frame

very interesting, im in the mist of getting smacked with customs fees for these. might push that fee back on the selling site if its fedex policy.

I just received my Olys and I'm a bit disappointed. I feel like these are very bulky. I am comparing them to my cardinals and CDP 7s. The booties in these are thin in my opinion and the the sneaker feels spongelike under my feet when I wear them. When I lace up my other 7s the lace area makes a nice taper from the top down to the toe, in these I dont get a taper at all because from top to bottom the distance between the sides are the same and makes my foot look long and awkward. I've never been one to complain but I wish these were constructed better.

I hear what your saying man. I owned the 2004 pair and sold them because i expected since theyre releasing again i would get the same quality, but i was wrong unfortunately.
Ive noticed with the VIIs specifically the inner booties are thin and the tongue much shorter than the retros i had back in 03/04 or even my cardinals from 06
I won't even get started on how the XIIs and XIIIs took a quality drop off. the XIIs I had in HS felt like i was walking on clouds, the obsidians and gray/orange i bought? not so much.
anyways your not alone. the design is great but quality is certainly lacking....

& you're right.
That's why I passed on this release.

meh... i could care less about the color popping and the lacetips.
i care more about how convenient these were to get compared to the last release.
i hate lines and hate the stupidity that follows.

Mine finally came in. A few things to point out...whole shoe looks good and feels good. Laces tips are atrocious, I'm not even saying this because I nag about small details but these are actually the worst ever. 1 of my tips looks like they took a match to it for 7 seconds. Anyways, I digress, the tongue feels decent. But in comparison to Barkleys 180 tongue these feel like cardboard slightly. The Barkley tongue is super plush, soft, and metallic gold thread, these are a bit dead in color. But I guess they knew people would buy anyways. Besides that, in person, the shoe looks great and the SHAPE is fine people. Glad i bought, pics below..
I'm satisfied until Olive 9's now...still on the fence on the Bred 4's.
my lacetip is messed up to...its bent kind of and y r the tips plastic tho?? nike nike nike

Can't believe the toddler size looks 1000000000x better than the men's 2012 version. High tongue as well on the toddler size.
