yes. Though I can't say exactly that they are the same quality but they seem 95-99% accurate

Oh I thought it was more of a semi rigid rubber material.

I have been experimenting with flexible polyurethane for this parts on my V2s. The buckle itself feels great, but the strap slots feel like they would break the first time I pull them tight. I am now seeing if it possible add a rigid plastic to give it strength.
How soft are these parts on the V3?

That will be helpful. Thank you.
She'll warm up to them eventually. Might be a case of no sex for a week, but hey, your for-filling your dreams.
Back in 2010, when I bought my first pair MAGs (being the MP MAGs), my wife was like "what? you bought $200 shoes and you can't even wear them?"

Just wanting to know how many Aussies have ordered through David and if they've received their V3's yet?
Just in general has anyone ordered a pair in size 13?

I also believe it cost them $100 to make!

Do they even make a 13? I know there are 12s and they they are said to be "roomy".

Yeah they have 13s listed on their site. The problem i have is an abnormally long foot so I need 13s. Just wanted to gauge the quality of them if possible

These are apparently much better constructed than the V2s. Not sure if you ever saw the V1s? They were a solid build. Same construction is used for the these V3s.

I may have found a fix for defogging the frosted bubble so the lights are more clear. You can try putting cream developer on it and letting it sit for a few hours, then wiping it off with a damp cloth. People use it for deoxydizing clear soles on shoes. I tried it on my Mags last night and to me the air bubble doesnt look as foggy as it originally looked and I clearly was able to see the lights. I could even see the individual bulbs in each slot. It's hard to capture on camera but i will try tonight when i get off work

The quality is superb, solid construction throughout.

Got my QC pics overnight for these size 12s. I placed my order 6 days ago.
Am I crazy or does the fabric on the outer left shoe seem loose, especially between the middle of the swoosh and the heel cup? And the swoosh on the right seems crooked?
The soles seem yellow, but since you guys have been saying it doesn't look that bad in person, I'm fine with that. But the loose fabric and crooked swoosh make me want to ask for another pair. What do you think?

I think they look good. No glue spots or EL problems. You have minor fabric wrinkles but to be honest you're not going to get a better pair than this from them. iv order two sets of 12s so far and Id say ship these if they were mine.

If HC can make and sell a product for 80$, they make it for 20/40$ max so I guess these should be around 100$
The highest cost would be the sole and electronics. But As we don't know how much shoes they produce, the material costs could be higher :/

It's up to you but IMO that pinched fabric would be a deal breaker for me. I'd ask for a different shoe.

I would say it is entirely up to you but I agree with FreddyTV the pinches fabric would be a deal breaker for me.

Imagine an alternate 2015 where this shoe is common and everyone wears them.
There's a part of me that thinks I'd genuinely have the feeling that we were living in the future, even if they didn't power lace.
