    I just can't imagine wearing camo anything personally, but to each their own

    I didn’t pay it much attention. I just clicked the exclusive yeezy access notification and it showed I had 30 minutes and could buy up to four pairs

    I like camo pants if done right with what you’re wearing up top. Wouldn’t wear camo shoes though. Definitely not highlighter green camo shoes. Would look like I thought I was a member of the Hot Boyz

    haha they'll probably make a ton of them. Even the reverse infra's aren't too bad. I think $220 right now.

    Yeah Ive been watching them. A $168 bid with all the fees and everything gets them to me for $200 and some change. Not too bad. I feel like theyre at the point now where they are probably at their lowest and will start creeping back up some. If Uncle Trump decides to bless us with another check I'll probably pull the trigger.

    I've had a $220 bid sitting out there for a while for another pair. They got down to $221 but not $220 yet lol. I'm sure I'll wake up to an email saying I bought them soon.

    Finally opened up my triple white ultraboost dna. Ignore my pasty white legs lol. This stay at home order has kept me mostly at home other than work and I always wear pants there. These are nice. Like the “leather” cage and suede ish tongue and heel. Feel a bit more premium than usual. Comfy as ever. Like a nice plush pair of socks in the upper. I size down 1/2 in these for a snug comfortable fit

    It’s the right size. In sock like shoes I like a snugger fit. All my ub are 11.5. Everything else 12 or 12.5

    They doubled the time for sellers to ship, at least from my sale. Used to be 2 days, now it’s 4. I would assume whatever the normal time table is, just double it. I sold a pair last night and have till May 11th to ship, for reference.

    Got a brand new pair of ultraboosts the other day and my dog's nail immediately proceeded to pull up part of the flynit. Recommendations to snip this off and make sure it doesn't mess up the weave to make it unravel more?

    With so much invested in shoes, seems like you could’ve spent a small amount on good socks

    Supreme sells the shit out of plain white Hanes shirts because their logo is on the package. Not even the shirt. Brand Mark is everything.

    I stand corrected, they have a tiny logo. Point still holds up.

    Maybe snip the run and have something red hot handy to singe the ends. Also, i think we got the same shoes..If they make a comfier shoe, I’ve yet to find it.

    Scissors and it's probably the type of fabric that would melt if you took a lighter to it so if you're going to do that make sure to take the shoe off your foot first. Otherwise possibly try some sort of glue?

    Whats going on with that? A lot of them are shoes that hit discount, eventually pulled from ndc, and now are back on snkrs at the discounted price.

    Id probably go with some sewing scissors and some kind of quality super glue. Snip it in the middle first then snip off the left side as close to the shoe as possible. Then do the right side. Touch all the places where you cut threads with some super glue. One of those little tubes with the pin pointer would probably work best. The glue is probably going to yellow over time but if they are your wear every day pair and they are eventually going to get messed up over time that spot probably wont yellow before you wear them out anyway.
