This is a disappointing result for me. I’ve been on the site, close to pulling the trigger on some Royale Courts, but the grey set I want is out of stock. If a $65 dollar pair comes in with such defects, I must say I’m glad that I didn’t impulse buy these. The pictures sure do look awesome on their site, but excess glue as seen in your photos — that alone would be enough to drive me nuts in a good pair of kicks. I’m sad, but minor, first-word-problem bullet dodged.
