I'm having a hard time deciding which Shoes to buy, and I need some help.

I've had my Eyes on the Black Mexico 66's for about a little over a year, and I finally found them in stock somewhere, but I just found out about the Gunmetal Ultimate 81 LE's.
Currently I have some really beat up Adidas Samba shoes which are very similar to the Mexico 66's, so I think I may need a little change in pace?
Which one would you choose?
Ultimate 81 LE's:





Mexico 66's (but in Black):

I like the mexico 66's.

I wear adidas gazelles, and are my preference. Both are nice shoes though.

Get the 66's. The 81's are too plain on the back heel.
Chop yellow laces and a TMS decal on the side.
The decal will make you go faster.

Awesome! Good to know these will be comfortable, seeing that I got some flat foot problems
So which ones do you recommend from the two?

So both aren't an option eh? lol
I like the nose on the Ultimate, but the lower profile on the Mexico. But overall hmm
I don't know, flipping a coin would be your best bet lol.
Not much help huh
