@:53 the reporter says it. No emphasis on any syllable and the the rolled R Leetroy Jenkins was talking about. Though I disagree that it sounds more like an L than an R. To my ears there is a distinct difference between R and L even when it's rolled, though I'm a native Spanish speaker which is probably why it sounds different to me.

The difference in the "R" and "L" sound for Korean and Japanese is like this, Make the R sound like "rhh rhhh", you'll feel the sides of your tongue at the back go up and hit your upper molars.
The R/L type sound for Korean/Japanese, the same thing, but the tip of your tongue will be pointing and tapping the roof of your mouth, different from the English "L" sound, where the tip is hitting the back of your front top teeth. That English "L" doesn't exist in Korean/Japanese.
Hence the struggle with "Engrish" for native Asians. Btw, mocking the accent is not ok
Man, too many cups of coffee this morning and struggled online for the bc4s, really had me type this out

/\ this.
Same holds for the R - there is no “r” sound. Hence why rice is “lice” and fried is “flied”

Is it me, or, are the GRs selling a little bit better than they used to?

At least for me they are! It's really more because there were a few last year I was sure I could get a steal discount on, only to watch them dissappear.
But also because I'm really digging the color blocking on most of them.
Your pics of some sealed the deal for me on some

Na the consensus here was to go up .5 from your normal am1 size on all 3 Currys. Maybe not for you but just about everyone agreed to go .5 up on those.

Yea I went tts and it was a mistake. They def run smaller. I don’t see how quality control would of played a part either.

I think it was the Terry cloth liner rather than the normal cotton/nylon blend but I could be completely wrong. @SUPER BLACK probably took one apart so maybe he can tell us why.

I have the same fit issue with the outdoor greens as I do Curry’s. Liner is all I can think of.

think these'll under 300 or shoot up in a month? I'm frugal.

I think they’ll sit at that 290-320 range for a while since most people copped these to resell and then they’ll shoot up in 6 months to a year once those cheap pairs dry up
