Is it still possible to find a 9 or 9.5 in these? Been a bit busy lately and haven't had time to look.

Finally got my Brooks in from Blends. I knew they would be tight but OMG they felt like an 11! Had to do some "modifications" to it. Changed the insoles and laces to fit my needs/desires.

Also from Obey I got these socks. The striped ones are perfect for the shoe, they are thin and the brown color actually matches the copper accent on the shoes.

Took out the insoles and replaced them with the thinner insoles from my Triple Crown of Surfing Authentic insoles... kind of looks cool/matches

Also took the round threaded laces from those same Authentics.

They fit me perfect now and the laces were a lil easier than the OG laces and stay laced (I dont like double Knotting)

I think you can take out the hard ass forward motion insole piece as well, for some more space, and comfort.

I wonder if the creases still look as bad while wearing them, either way there's no way that can be ds, creases seem too deep.
