Quality of materials and workmanship is superb... just be mindful of the sizes in various models... there's an FB Group if you want to know more of the brand...

I actually got rid of all my Roos a while back and haven't been into a lot of their newer collabs, but after seeing these I just had to have them. Under retail too, so can't complain at all.

In a relatively simple model and CW, did anyone go for the Finalist collab w/ Inan Batman? As all relevant ROOS should, they’re MIG. Shape is decent.

Looks like a pair that will go on sale IMO. With those colors they could have come up with something nicer.

Man, sad to hear the news about him passing away. I don't use social media anymore so I didn't know until now, but I definitely remember him from that group and had spoken to him a few times in the past. Great for Kangaroos to do this for his family. Pair looks wonderful, too.

Absolute beauts. The second I saw the teaser pics I knew I had to have them. I actually grabbed two pairs because I wanted to be able to rock one easily and know I have a clean pair on ice. First pair just came in.I don't know what else they could have done...IMO this was a near-perfect collab. The mix of colors and materials was daring, but it really works. Quality is top as usual. The pale yellow perforated suede, peach suede toebox, lilac nubuck on the tongue, and the bright pink velvet on the collar are really eye-catching.
But my favorite bits are definitely the deep teal nubuck on the back, and the awesome shade of light blue they used for the leather. The branding on the shoe is tastefully done...Just on the heel tab and lace locks. Some shops tend to really over-do it on the branding and it kills the look of the shoe, but this was just right.
The special box with the extra socks and laces was a nice touch as well. Oh, and they used copper for the lace lock and top lace hole. The Austrian release came with a copper chain that you could hang from the side of the shoe as well. Wish I could find one of those!
Only thing I would change is maybe a gum sole instead of the pink sole, but I pretty much would add a gum sole to any shoe
Eye-catching...
Inspecting the quality up close...

I'm pretty much the same....add a gum bottom and it's a perfect collab. But I know it's just a small nitpick by us both! Ha Ha!! Congrats on the double-pick up!!

First pair ever from the brand, seriously impressed with material quality. Worth the price. Very different from what I'm used to.

Just copped these from a Polish shop. Took about a week. I was surprise how fast it was. The sizing was confusing and not super clear. So it was in UK but I thought it was US. Copped a 9.5 and that my TS i can rock a 10 in some models. Some I was pissed initially, put them on and to my surprise they are not all that big. This is my first Aussie and my first ROO period. 105 shipped was easy to pull the trigger I do want more now lol the Green Aussie are clean.
I also got these random cheap stickers with my pair lol is that normal

I know very little about KangaRoos but these are a beautiful color. Shape is nice too. They have a perfect retro silhouette.Just copped these from a Polish shop. Took about a week.

Latest pickup. As expected, great quality. Colorway reminds me of Footpatrol Squad GLIII. Socks are awesome, I think I like them more than the shoe
I like the hits of blue on the sockliner too. My only gripes are I don't really like the eyelets or the laces they come with. Also I think a gum sole would have been perfect, but I make that suggestion on almost every shoe that doesn't have a gum sole..

How’s the sizing on these? I very much hope they run large..

They run a little big for most people. I find them TTS...IMO Kangaroos run a little big around the ankle but a little cramped in the toebox.
