Just ordered a pair of grey size 10. My last footbag shoes purchase for at least a year. I think I have a problem......

yeah, i ordered a pair of grey size 9's from freedom ... i've had both 8 1/2's and 9's in lavers, so i tried to take everybodies Q02 experiences into account!?

feels like a bit of a gamble ... i certainly hope they fit

IMPORTANT NOTICE:

Anyone who is planning to attend worlds and pick up shoes there please take note... I have heard from my shipper that the shoes destined for Florida will not arrive until Monday, and may not be available (i.e., unloaded from the train car they are in) until Wednesday. This is a huge bummer and pain in the ass for me... The shoes had been sitting in Long Beach, CA for nearly two weeks.

I do have 100 pairs here in Nampa, Idaho, but I will only be taking a limited quantity with me on the plane. Anyone who has "pre-ordered" will get their pairs at worlds (plus I'm shipping out several pairs today)... So, if you want to make sure I have your size and color at worlds when you first get there, PM me ASAP (e.g. TODAY), otherwise you may have to wait until Wednesday to get your preferred color/size.

Peace.

Take a knife to your toes. Apply pressure.

You can fit into smaller shoes easy with this technique:

Yes, I did the same thing to my Quantums.

Peace.

Same here

. On planetfootbag Austria the size scale looked different from what I've seen here (there the sizes of the Q 02's were equal to laver sizes), so this makes me even more unsure...
But hey lotus: you got the same size as me so why dont you tell me if they fit once you get them (just post here on forum)?!

Does anyone know when these babies can be bought from planet footbag international shop? I have 9Â½ lavers witch are about 2cm too big

so what size I should be looking for?

atze · Post by **atze** » 10 Aug 2007 04:00

we're still waiting for our shipment, it should arrive sometime next week. so expect to be able to order the qm02 on the international shop sometime within the next two weeks.

as to sizes, what i've heard so far the qm02 scale 0.5 size smaller than the rod laver and a full size smaller than the qm01. but i'm sure we'll have a lot of feedback on this after worlds (i think dryl will be taking notes).

The scale on pf austria is based on what it says in the shoe. it has nothing to do with laver sizes.

lotus · Post by **lotus** » 10 Aug 2007 06:16

mirage ... will do ... i'll post whether or not the size 9's fit me right.
they have been sent, so i should have them in a week or so

Buying Footbag items online sure is an obstacles for footbaggers, no wonder not many people get in this sport

. For noobs, equipments meant alot to them, except u are really passionate for this sport.

Hey y'all, I just got my quantums in, and i normally wear a size 8 1/2 in lavers. In quantums i got a size 9 and it was like a perfect fit. I held my quantum up to my laver and they were like the exact same size so yeah... go for they 1/2 size bigger. Then again my friend got the same size he wears in lavers and it was also perfect... do whichever.

Just got my quantum's today, they're a nice fit, was a little disappointed that the lace loop on the tongue of the left shoe was ripped off on one side out of the box, but nothing I couldn't fix.

Cope · Post by **Cope** » 13 Aug 2007 17:23

I got my Q02's today. Size 10.5, same as my Lavers. They are a snug fit, but are still good. Id recomend getting Q02's a 1/2 size bigger then lavers like most people have said.

Burrin · Post by **Burrin** » 14 Aug 2007 08:24

I got mine the first day at worlds. I like them and dislike them.
(Hard to type on a psp )

edit: I like them more dislike. Well nothing is perfect but I can't wait to break them in-ish. But yeah making the switch from my lavers and they are a half size bigger for me. I went from laver 8.5 to 9 quantum . (got me a laptop with a dieing battery awesome)

The tonge is slippery but over all they are really cool looking :]

Edit edit: Okay had a good shred in them today. I love them. I take back all what I said. They feel like uggs(sp)?, look like laversish and perform like sport shoes. Awesome. Suggest getting a pair

lotus · Post by **lotus** » 17 Aug 2007 05:37

mine arrived today

.

laver size 8 1/2 ... quantum size 9 ... PERFECT!!
the material is lovely thin, yet it seems durable ... they are my new work shoes and I LOVE THEM!!

note: it's superficial, but all the product photos i've seen to date are quite deceptive ... these are very GREY shoes ... not even close to black (or even charcoal for that matter). i was initially disappointed to hear that black was not available in this version, but not anymore ... this colour is really unique and allows both light and dark styles of footbag to stand out when stalled on the shoe ... good for both audience and shredder alike

Anybody have suggestions as to which of the Spenco insoles (Low Profiles, Cross Trainers or Total Support) would be best for a person with a low-arched foot??
