    Snagged the blue/navy 270s for 61 bucks. I don’t wear my 270 dusty cactus very much but they are comfortable.

    btw not that it matters much but in case anyone else is a ndc/+ holdout like me... you totally don't need to sign in for that discount

    Why do you not have a ndc account? It gives you free shipping iirc.

    my default is to avoid accounts wherever possible and I usually have someone else making nike purchases for me.

    I find that really odd. No shade, just weird to me. But do what makes you happy, obviously.

    I was told a while back that the Lemonade and a pink version of it were supposed to drop for Air Max Day but they got pushed back. Curious if pink still drops.

    Do not buy any 997H. Liked a color way and they were on sale for 50 something with free shipping but the quality is atrocious. I am not sure if I even want to donate them they’re so bad. Might just trash them

    dunks used to be my jam back in the 2004-2008 era, haven't really seen any publicized releases lately or else I'd have probably bought more of them

    joey jo-jo jr shabadoo you know for me, the action is the juice

    my local skate shop switched to copdate, so there went my chances to get any sbs anyway

    best off waiting for the hype to die back down and getting for retail or less on stock x like you could a year ago

    About a year ago a buddy sold a Paris for $15k to Dre from Project Blitz. A week later Dre was on ig giving them to Travis. I should have known then what the deal was and that Nike was going to use Travis to build Dunks back.

    I don't dislike Dunks. I like that so many of them have themes and not just a generic colorway. I don't see me ever really wearing them though.

    Thats basically me. I think they look fine and I like the themes behind most of them. I just dont have an interest for them.

    I mean they're cheap, but I wouldn't say "atrocious"
    They're not much different that most mass market Nikes, and you don't pay anything for them.
    I have two pair I'm reasonably pleased with.

    not the way you mean that lol
    I *am* however fairly paranoid and try to keep my data mine wherever possible as a general lifestyle.
    And the second part, the fact that someone else usually buys for me, is because of a connection... not some kid or assistant or some shit lmao

    Ha no judgement. I have to buy stuff on amazon for my mom because she is afraid of someone stealing her identity. She refuses to get a debit card.

    Air Monarchs are premium material compared to the 997H. They feel terrible. The upper is like cloth mixed with styrofoam and sand paper. I really like the look of them I just can’t do the feel

    my first instinct here is "lol cmon"
    but I think there's a strong possibility that the quality varies from cw to cw...

    Of course when I checked last night the damn orange pair was gone and can’t find them today either in a 12. One color I always buy and didn’t even know they were coming

    c/p from emails with wife today

    me: https://sneakernews.com/2020/04/07/nike-air-covid-19-face-shields/

    wife: I saw that, really cool

    me: I WANT ONE

    wife: You aren't a healthcare professional lol

    me: Could be!

    But seriously though, Dr's and nurses need them so I'm not going to be a dick and try to source one.

    But after this shit is cured I'm going to hunt one down

    That’s the 2020 ultraboost box. Your seller probably just didn’t have the old one anymore
