ParadoxAndPlaid Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 Mike teams up with Macbeth for a third time, his new design is vegan, just like his past two, and are part of their spring 2011 collection. Dirnt has chosen to donate his royalties from the collaboration to The National Military Family Association’s Operation Purple, a program created to empower military children and their families to develop and maintain healthy and connected relationships, in spite of the current military environment. Created in 2004 to fill a need identified by military parents to help them help their kids, Operation Purple periodically sponsors camps that provide military kids with an opportunity to have fun and make friends in an environment where they are reminded that they are our nation's youngest heroes. “I’m really excited to be teaming up with Macbeth for another Studio Project,” explains Dirnt. “Macbeth is a great company, producing quality product in a conscious way, and I’m always happy to find a way to lend a hand to great programs like Operation Purple." I really like the new design, I love military style. Very exited fro them to be released! Opps, they actually are already being sold in some places! Here Just found out about the Summer 2011 Design, Same as spring but in black and red.
Ellenkc Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 Oh, I like them! Hopefully they aren't too expensive.
ParadoxAndPlaid Posted March 11, 2011 Author Posted March 11, 2011 Oh, I like them! Hopefully they aren't too expensive. Even if they are pricey, it'll go to a good cause.
Ellenkc Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 Even if they are pricey, it'll go to a good cause. They're €90, even if a portion of the money (not sure how much Mike would get from royalties for a shoe) will go to charity, I can't really spend that much on a pair of shoes.
reckless Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 Ooh nice! I liked the black ones better, though.
JHyena86 Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 Need. I don't think I have ever seen a pair of shoes that were more...me. Now if only I could find them around here : (
Katarina. Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 I wouldn't buy them myself, but I really like this design! With the stars and all..
Hermione Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 Way to keep making people think you're a vegan Mike . Very cool thing to do for the charity. I only wear girly shoes that cost about a tenth of that price though
St. Vicky Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 Great design! They look amazing, but they're too expensive for me.
alaniluau Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 Looks like Mike has created another cool shoe that I'll never be able to wear. Way to keep making people think you're a vegan Mike . Very cool thing to do for the charity. I only wear girly shoes that cost about a tenth of that price though That reminds me of a conversation the other day when a girl sighed, "It's SO great that Billie Joe is a vegan."
ParadoxAndPlaid Posted March 11, 2011 Author Posted March 11, 2011 Way to keep making people think you're a vegan Mike . Very cool thing to do for the charity. I only wear girly shoes that cost about a tenth of that price though I'd love to see the man eating a burger while talking about his new vegan shoes. I still can't convince my coworker that they're not vegetarians. Need. I don't think I have ever seen a pair of shoes that were more...me. Now if only I could find them around here : ( Can't you buy online? If not, you can go to a local store that carry similar brands and see if they'll order them for you. A lot of places will do that as long as you're 100% sure on buying them.
Rebel07 Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 Nice! I'll probably never get them unless I could find em cheap but I think I like these better than the first two..
Marki. Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 Looks like Mike has created another cool shoe that I'll never be able to wear. Yeah, this I really like them though, it's a cool design =)
Broken_Tune Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 my friend is really big into the military style. can't wait to tell her about these
JHyena86 Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 Can't you buy online? If not, you can go to a local store that carry similar brands and see if they'll order them for you. A lot of places will do that as long as you're 100% sure on buying them. Yeah, I did that with the first design- tried on a different Macbeth shoe for size. The worker kept trying to convince me to buy a different kind, despite me sitting there in a Green Day hoodie and explaining why I wanted them so bad. The challenge is finding them in a smaller size online. That and I like the challenge of finding them
Punk-tastic32 Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 Looks like Mike has created another cool shoe that I'll never be able to wear. So true I'd love to see the man eating a burger while talking about his new vegan shoes. I still can't convince my coworker that they're not vegetarians. Just had the most amazing mental image of Mike trying to talk with his mouth full so of hamburger he looks like a squirrel.
pasalaska Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 ooh, I like the design... but I look stupid in hi-tops. And they're pricey.
Stormy Haze Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 That design is amazing! But its price is expensive, and I'd still have to think about shipping costs. There is no way I could ever afford this.
Mar Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 Looks like Mike has created another cool shoe that I'll never be able to wear. Exactly! Mainly because of my fat cankles, I can never wear high-top shoes!
ganis Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 those shoes look awesome.. I want them!! and now I can't wait for him making another of those adds, he is such a salesman. I don't know how many times I've watched the adds for the first two shoes, it's sad, but I love 'em!
Daughter.of.Rage.and.Love Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 Cool, I like them But unfortunately I have really stupid feet (I have both wide feet and a high/big(?) instep) and I really need to try them on first, so I can't buy shoes online. And I'm not sure how well they'd fit me. But they're definitely nice shoes.
xjernpqvrnbfv Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 I like the red ones! But I don't think I'm gonna get them, my feet are a bit ..weird. I'd need to try them on first ah well
