I noticed some of the staff have these shoes on (@kunalkumar?). Any comments on the quality of their construction? Do you foresee the stitching on the microfiber as well as the joints between the upper and the soles coming apart easily?
The reason I'm asking is because of a review on the UT Lab Light Wing Franklin: >"Sadly, I can’t say I was impressed with the quality of construction, or comfort. Of the several pairs I tried before getting the right size, I ran into several issues; eyelets that fell apart, stitching that came loose in several places, and entire sections where the upper wasn’t glued into the sole at all. All of these problems were fixable (and may have been isolated incidents), though it wasn’t particularly inspiring taking them out of the box and immediately feeling the need to break out the super glue."

Also, are they true to size or did you have to size up/down from your normal shoe size?
FeebleOldManLet me play around with the samples in the office. I think the issues that are seen with the Franklin might not be relevant to the Ninja.
I'll try and pull them apart and see what happens :).
P.S. I am wearing Toms in the Solid Gray Pictures.
FeebleOldManSo I pulled on these shoes hard, but they are really well made. I am attaching some images of me trying to pull them apart. Also, they are comfortable to wear.
