I doubt these were PK. So many things way wrong. The ankle has padding like an AM1 where the SW had no padding. Stuff like that.
I say this with love and respect you have the taste of a cooler, blacker man. That’s pretty cool I just lost it at it being your shoe cabinet door
Has anyone ever tried to reroute a package? Mistimed when I’ll be in FL and have my StockX stuff shipping to my moms house when I’ll be back in NY. My mom broke her ankle so she won’t be able to ship them to me easily
i think I’ll do that to prevent a loss then. Just gave it sent to a local Tampa store and then have them complete the shipping over the phone. Or maybe even a NYC stop
I honestly don't really like them. I'm also assuming there are gonna be several dope n9000s for the (silo) anniversary coming down the pipe
Serious question, do you ever get bored of having such little variety in your sneakers? Having 99% of your sneakers being Nikes of similar releases just seems repetitive. This thread is basically only Nike's and adidas UltraBoosts. Do you guys also shop at all boutique brands or other less major brands(puma, asics, etc)? Don't take this post in the wrong way. I love buying new shoes but buying the same brand over and over to me would be like going to the same restaurant over and over again.
The two I have the most of are NB and Diadora. I only have like 5 Nike pairs, none of which are J's. And I have 3 UBs, a couple of long since retired superstars that I still hope to revamp at some point, but otherwise no Adidas.
nope those boutique brands are better pulled off by white dudes tbh, I can’t do the more preppy white look looks bad on me.......Jordan’s, Yeezys and UB look great on me so I stick with that u don’t see Mexicans wearing that shit too often where I am from just not in my DNA
No not at all. 300 pairs of same show in 300 different colorways or 300 different shoes doesn’t matter I can only wear one at a time. I like what I like and am too old to worry about that. I like1s 350 and pumas. I need to get a few more pumas and would love a re-release of the 350 zebras.
Nike is taking on wear testers for the Mars Yard 2.5. There's a video on SNKRS about it. They don't look as bad as I thought. Still not a fan of the toe cap but doesn't look as clownish here. I'll be curious if customizers are able to remove the black rubber. https://sneakernews.com/2020/12/23/nike-mars-yard-2-5-wear-test-release-info/
I'm probably at 70% Nike, 15% Converse, 10% adidas, 5% New Balance going to dip my toe in the allbirds water at some point
my sneakers are out of pure comfort, and I haven't worn something as good as a UB even though i've tried a lot
Yes, I 100% get bored with brands (even Nike) My rotation is a pretty even balance between NB/Nike/Karhu/Adi with some allbirds thrown in during the summer. Nike dominates the sneaker conversation so it can easily seem like that is the only thing being released/bought in this thread. But there are a fair few of us who branch out. but also I fully understand the Nike loyal folks who only buy swoosh. Do what makes you happy
If I like it I'll buy it so brand doesnt really matter to me. Nike and Adidas probably dominate what I have but ive got a little of everything across the board.
Spoiler have another two pairs in storage somewhere in this house, but these 4 are in rotation. The multicolored Aria is one of my favorite shoes I’ve ever owned and the bottom Synchron is a really great colorway
Super novice question: flightclub - are they a straight up retailer or what? Cause some of their pricing makes no sense.
Yea they were StockX before StockX. Resell shop in NY. It's all consignment though so people can drop off their pairs and ask whatever for them so some are dumb high. Pretty sure Goat owns them now.
Hmm cool. They have a pair of the air max 97 golf shoes I just bought in size 10 i light have to snag if the 10.5 is too wide and the price is like $40 less than StockX.
My hottest sneaker take is that On’s are trash both aesthetically and comfort-wise. I have cloud x’s (that I only wear when I want something in triple black) and CloudSwifts that I walk the dog in, but I never recommend them to people
Zoom sole Jordan 1s had been sitting around for a few hours, usually sell out, got a pair to replace my other high tops. So one sticking point for me is the accents that are in the front of the shoe. Would probably get punch colored laces too
which ones are these? I believe the shoes arrived he’ll open it tomorrow and I’ll post pics when he does.
