    Here you go. 20150421_233823_resized.jpg

    My wife and her family are from Japan so my mother in law (who lives there) and my wife teamed up to get me these.

    wife and son just came back from Japan and brought me an amazing gift. I could not go this year because of too many projects at work that my team needs to finish.
    I asked them for one pair (athleta) but my son said that since I spent over a n hour looking at these last year and embarrassed him at the store, that I should get these. I'm told these should cover the next few years father's day, birthday, xmas, flag day, and any other holiday..hahahahahaha

    I added them to my other 30th anniversary collection.

    What does the semi-tight bring it out to? 2E? 3E?

    Yes, the blue ones are MiJ Morelias II. They were available last year on pro direct and soccer.com but not sure if they are still available or not.

    The Monarcida JP defiantly have a "wider" toe box than the neos (I), I dont have the regular releases but the blue Kamo release are hands down the best boot released in 2016 (not speaking about looks). inner suede upper and the leather (dont think its the same that is used on the regular monarcida jp - havent held a pair to compare) are the main reasons behind it.

    Noooooo! It's fine, SS Kamo usually has more color launches right?

    Olympic Rugby 7s, Kenya v. UK: seeing a lot more blue/yellow Neo IIs

    You def should, I don't think I could get a regular pair anymore, especially since they're not that much more expensive IMO. Get a tenso account and it's easy to do once you have that.

    Got dem SI Neo IIs in. They are wider than Ignitus 2 and super comfy. Even with my wide feet, I bought true to size and only minor squeezage/crampage on my 4th and 5th toes(these are my trouble areas). I feel that the K-leather will loosen enough in the this spot over time. [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]
    Might try these red studs since the pitches here are dry and firm.

    I'm no expert but I'd say the leather is equal to Ignitus 2 since that's what I have to compare to. To be totally honest, PrimeSkin doesn't feel that much different to the touch.

    its really not that bad, there are minimum diameters for screw-in studs so it doesn't do too much damage lol, still hurts though. it blows my mind that there aren't minimums for molded boots. I keep eyeballing the AMO Customs anodized studs but I don't think they meet the min. dia. for Rugby Union

    Yes and the leather quality and the sizing are the same. They're the same boots as the MIJ Morelia, it's just that you can pick a different stitiching which affects the fit, not the sizing. You can also go wider if you have wife feet and you can go short tongue or floppy tongue. Are you the same guy messaging me on IG?
