Since leaving you off with the sneak peek, we've been dissecting these detailed photos of the upcoming Reynolds shoe obsessively. Emerica has put together their best efforts to give Andrew exactly what he wanted in a shoe and it most definitely shows. Working side by side with Emerica's primary footwear designer August Benzien, Andrew has given just as much of himself in his latest shoe than he ever has before. After meeting up with August, he let us in on every detail there is about the new Reynolds from Emerica.

Right away, stories of time consuming details and almost tormenting craftsmanship came to light and left us feeling that we had been placed in the same room with a mad scientist. This wasn't the case though. After being informed with more of a understanding of the details that went into the Reynolds shoe, it became evident that we weren't dealing with a mad scientist but a perfectionist. At one point and time during our meeting, August brought out countless other physical manifestations of what it took to get to the finalized version of today. With no filter or sense of remorse, he explained how their manufacturing factories hated him for putting them through the mental anguish they've endured. Every detail on this shoe has been thought out and examine from every angle with August and Andrew. It's this type of dedication that we enjoy bringing to light because unless you know, consumers are left with the feeling of being sold another generic product. Thankfully, that isn't the case here & hopefully you now have a better understanding of what the shoe has gone through.

With this backstory in place, each one of these details should impress you even more than they did upon first glance. Each subject in this breakdown are all the same criteria's we judge a shoe on during review. Because of the thorough attention to detail, it almost makes this shoe unnecessary to review. Thankfully, we still plan on reviewing these. Expect it either in December or January.
