yeah the sizes were weird for these shoes, they had very little selection for that model.

they're called "Repli-cat mid"

I'm gonna pick up another pair, Navy blue/Grey, when they come stateside.

Nice shoes, man. I've got two pairs of speedcats - black/white (nubuck) and white/brown leather. SO comfy.

Never seen anyone else (outside of the club) wearing them though.

Do track officials get angry when you barefoot?

Hate to let the secret out (cause they have limited size selection unless you have size 8 or 15 feet) but Nordstrom Rack (as opposed to regular Nordy) is the place. Ridiculous deals on both the replica shoes and even true nomex lined racing shoes - mostly puma (sparco).
But it's very hit and miss what they'll have when. And you'll mostly find funky colors.

For me, I'm going for the oakleys

Or if you wanna goto Gilroy, the Puma outlet there has most of the styles.

I got the replicat III S and the Circat in red there during one of their sales for 50 bucks a pair
