IanAndersonI was in the same boat, but I've decided to go with the Alabaster (all-white) after seeing the additional pictures. I just feel as if it's, overall, the more versatile choice; and I've already got J Crew X Nike Killshot 2s that would only be replaced by the White / Gray Suede, so I might as well branch out and go with the more classic, simple, and sleek all-white look.
These will certainly give the Maison Margiela GATs a run for their money given the price point (quality might not be as great, as the Margielas are priced, at MSRP, nearly double that of Epaulet, but nonetheless you get outstanding value for your money with the latter... plus, you're supporting a business in the good ol' US of A).
PhrayThank you sir!
And believe me, you'll be pleasantly surprised by the quality on these. In terms of leather and construction, they're really second to none.
