yeah, leesh did the shoe reviews.
lovely girl that she is...

so you wants to get some creepers aye?
well perth hasn't got very many...

the first place i'd look is the ViewFactory, which is on hay street, just east of the mall, right near the big hoyts. They stock creepers there, but they don't have a very broad selection.

i'm not sure of other places in perth that stock them... you could try Urbane records in leederville... these guys stock alot of cool mod/rudeboy stuff... like trojan box sets, and vespa/lam'retta tees.

most people i know got theirs from melbourne town...
but thats a bit of a journey to get to there.
... and once you get there i'm not sure where you should start looking.

but if your out of perth anyway, you may aswell try ordering them from ameria... you'll proably spend the same amount of money ordering the shoe from the US or UK and paying the shipping to get it to your own front door...

plus you'll be able to get the actuall shoe you are after.

as for places on the net to get creepers from...
i'm fairly out of touch with those.

there were a couple of sites listed in the fashion reviews which will probably be helpfull... and there's always eBay (if your prepared to wait forever and possibly pay more)

I know i found a site a couple of years back that sold the biggest range of creepers in the world and most were about $69-$89 (US dollars)...

thats about all the advice i can give.

server should be au.austnet.org
and the channel #ska
i think... by memory.

hey Josh... can you back me up on this?


BenDog

me and some buddies bought a couple pairs off a site
www.waycoolshoes.com they cost em about 120 bux all up shipping and all got them in about 2 weeks aswell. sweet deal

www.sha-sha.com

and bendogs irc info is correct. #ska is tha place to be when u have absolutely nothing better to do with your life. you'll find me there a bit.

that is if i could be bothered installing irc again.

Peace & unity

I have also been searching for creepers manily for Rock'n'Roll. Found this site doing a search and located the fashion article which was of interest. So far my leads also indicated mail order or Eastern States. I will check out the Viewfactory as they sound like a possible lead. Here is a link to see the catalog of TUK creepers. http://www.instepdrmartens.com/

Thanks for the information
