I came across this deal about a week ago, a few different styles of Piloti shoes for $30 a pair... Or about $60 off of MSRP.
If you browse through here you'll find 3 different styles in a bunch of different colors:

I've read a bunch of horror stories about Sportsmans Guide... But I figured I would take a chance with them and It has paid off. I bought three pairs of the Prototipos in each of the colors they had for sale and I just got the shoes today without any problems.
Just wanted to give a heads up to anyone who wanted to buy a pair of these, but didn't want to blow the $90 for shoes. I've been wearing a pair of these for about six months now and they're fantastic to just walk around in too.
They also sent me a coupon code with my confirmation email for my next purchase... I think it's just a generic code so it's not one time use or anything... But if you buy $99 or more in stuff, you get $10 off. It's Coupon Code: SG822 and is good till May 22nd.

Thanks! Just ordered a blue pair of the Prototipos

I thought for sure this was going to be a canoe, but apparantly not.
I've wanted to get a pair of these for awhile now.
How does the sizing run compared to say Nike?

I've actually never own a pair of Nike's - But I wear a 10-10.5 for all of my other shoes and the Piloti's in a 10.5 fit perfectly.
And no canoe - just passing along a good deal I've come across!

Thanks, mang! Got some Mulholland II's and Prototipos. I've been wearing my Spyder SV's for over a year now, and I love them -- but now they can get some rest. Too bad they only had the Spyder SV's in Rap Star Red.
Man that is a deal....
my wrestling shoes are free though, I guess I will stick with those...
too bad, maybe someday.
I've ordered from Sportsmans Guide several times and never had a problem. Looks like I'll be placing another order.
Customer comment on the Mulhollands...
I found a left and a right shoe in the box, both the same style and color. The shoe strings worked well. The hole for the foot to go in, seemed to be on the top of the shoe (normal position) and the part you walk on was on the bottom. With my foot in the shoe and the laces tied I was able to walk normally. I quess the shoes were just fine. Have a nice day.

Sportsman's Guide is actually the same thing as Bargain Outfitters. Some of you may remember a thread about a similar deal on Spyder SVs from a while back on Bargain Outfitters, here are the BO links for this deal:
Mulholland
Prototipo
Use coupon code BF1044 for $5 off shipping charges! I might get a spare pair for myself at these prices.
Picked up a pair of Prototipos and Spyder SVs

Same deal here...
Hmm... I'd need to find someplace to sells the same shoes so I can be sure to get the right size.

If Sportsman's Guide keeps this up I'll have a closest full of every piloti model made!
Sweet info! Thanks! Got my next pair of shoes for when my current pair wear out!
Crap I bought some G16s for $80 a couple of years ago...I wanted Prototipos but they were too expensive
Just FYI, the Spyders are NOT nomex lined. Website is incorrect on this.
The Prototipos I got came with a grease covered piece of paper used as packing material in the box.
What's the best way to remove a grease stain, (looks like axle grease) out of suede?
Aww, man...
I ordered two pairs and was really hoping they'd be here today. But, alas, my front porch is shoeless.

I ordered mine Wednesday night and they were here Friday. Thanks for letting us know!
I really can't afford these, but hell, that's why they made plastic money.
