Santoni AMG Sneakers
Has anyone picked up a pair of the new Santoni AMG racing sneakers? I saw them in the AMG lounge and they are now available in Nordstrom. They are expensive at $420 and I was wondering if any of you had them and if you liked them.

Those shoes will add +15 hp to your car and +15 pts to your gayness factor.

I'll stick to my PUMA Ferrari sweetnesses. Don't see what could cost $420, other than the embroidered "AMG"

I got a pair of Piloti for Xmas one year. Pretty comfy however the only time I wear them is when I go karting. I like the look of the Santoni's.
