   They are clearly not as nice as the past version, the concept of a white pigeon surley would be a dove, the shoe looks cheap too, remove the fact its Staple Design etc, it looks like a cheap tier 3/4 Nike air max rip off for teenage girls sold in eastern Europe. it just does not work. xx

   These kicks are hot like fire…I saw a kid the other day rocking a fake pair of Pigeon Dunks. The response to this project has clearly put Jeff Staple on the map. The gray NB were hot and also the converse Pigeon shoes were also hot. I love that neon color. When and where can I get these, I do not want to sleep on these New Balance.

    Mental Therapy with the leak – nice one Mental! I like that there’s been a departure of the usual Pigeon color scheme, but this particular colorway looks too similar to the Nike pink pack last year and he’s already done the 575. Branding aside, why the new flying pigeon – I don’t get it and it detracts from this shoe. Just one pigeon logo (or even the pigeon silhouette like on the tongue label) would be enough. Buttery suede looks extra buttery – thumbs up. —cheers//dom

    Bored:

    He comes up with new shit all the time, different concepts for each season. This is his signature logo/idea, why would he drop it?

    Congrats Staple. Way to take a cool idea and milk it forever, until no one cares anymore.
    Damn come up with some new ideas already, you’re beating a dead horse.
