It's not that hard to see if you know her logo.
I didn't know her logo until it was point out earlier in this thread.
Now if you know her logo and have trouble seeing it, that's understandable.

I honestly thought someone was trying to point out a factory defect. Like a creased tongue lol.
Plus who is walking around in these laceless?
Screw it, I’m old.

If it wasn't pointed out I would've never noticed it either. Because I didn't know what her logo was.

Damn V! Those aren't yours are they?!
Saw it's back in theaters for one night only on September 3. Already got my tickets! The suplex in that fight scene always cracked me up.

Mods with the mega sweep.
Wore my non Billie Fire Reds today. Wore them loose and walked several miles. Definitely heavier than the Billie version, but didn't notice much difference cushion-wise. They seemed to hold up pretty well, but definitely noticed more creasing. Could be because of the tumble, or maybe the synthetic on the Billies just holds up better? Hard to tell at this point. Definitely a fan of both.

If you had to pick one...which is more comfortable? Regular or BE?

Let me do a comparison this week and I'll let you know. Need to make sure it's a 1:1 with same lace job, socks, etc. Hadn't worn the Billies in a couple of days, so it probably wouldn't be fair to call it just yet.

I find the soles surprisingly cushiony. Not the typical brick cupsole.

Very nice - you’ve convinced me that I need to open mine up a bit. And also track down a leather pair.Non Billies at our teacher work day today.
dLebowski I agree on the surprisingly cushioned ride. I usually wear mine loose until they break in a bit more, then tighten the laces. Another couple of wears on each before I do that.
And the soles - there has to be some phylon in there (besides the obvious part I can see), all the way through. Just too much of a bouncy ride for it to be just rubber and ortholite.
Love this release!

Gonna wear my white/black Billies tomorrow since I have about the same schedule. Hopefully I'll be able to give a decent 1:1 review on each pair. I'm really liking both pairs so far though. May end up going after the Fire Red Billies at some point.

Wish they'd drop the white/grey pair already.
I can't even find a release date. Guessing soon/next month?
