I've seen these a million times in the rasta colorway and in white/black/grey, but this is the first time I'm seeing all black. I searched on google for "woven superstar black" and came up with nuttin.

Can anyone else confirm or deny the legitimacy of these?





There are more pix on the auction page, too.

What did the eyelets on yours look like -- they were unfinished?
Do you think these here are BS?

[sin`pl]

eyelets in mine were like here:

All black wovens were available a while back yeah, get the year on em and we'll know more

[Teaj]

Mine are 12/02. With eyelets

OK, so black WVNs do exist. Thanks all. I am inclined to believe that these black ones are real, but I've asked the seller for pix of the under-tongue labels.

One thing that's odd is that the rasta weave version has a puffy tongue, while the black pair pictured has a flat tongue.

Also ...
- the insides are a different pattern
- inside of heel is smooth on black, fuzzy on rasta
- tag isn't attached to same shoe (is it always supposed to be on the right?)

Anyone care to weigh in on this mystery?

Mr. Shoe Shotta, I hope it's OK w/you that I use your photo to illustrate my point!! If not, let me know ...

Puffy tongue:


Flat tongue:

and doesn't the back of the heel look awfully pointy?

rasta soups are II, and black waves are I.
i'm still not sure about these eyelets.

[cracky]

the rastas are ss2's and the black wvn's are ss1's they look fine

[adidasanth]

The black wovens arent I's, the I's arent that shape. Cannot offer a better solution, but they aint I's dude!

EDIT: been a long day, they are I's (Sorry Sin)

[sin`pl]

what shape are u talking about?
the shape of ss I and II is the same. differences are in tongue. rest depends on style (ie leather inside, eyelets, lace locks etc)
