    The way fashion goes, I had to wonder if these were real for a split second today.

    What are these big bubbles going to cost on the secondary market? I’m usually busy and work right through releases latey

    I know I'm late here but, Lol I'm shocked. It makes some sense with verification on pairs especially in the secondary market but I'd guess its mostly to drive their new "digital collectables". It will be interesting to see how this changes the secondary market considering they'll have that royalty built in. I'd assume they can do everything that stockx or goat can for much cheaper.

    I think this makes more sense with musical artists selling concert tickets. They can sell them direct to consumer and if its resold they get a cut or a royalty. Artists could build in things to limit the amount of times a ticket is resold or cap how much you make off of reselling.

    Anniversary pairs went on sale for $100 in 2017. I assume these will do the same.

    There are a sneaky number of ill H colorways. Too bad they feel so cheap in hand (hence the pricetag)

    If you don’t mind me asking how much you’re getting? I have a few pairs that simply don’t fit but I’ve worn them

    All depends on the condition. Got 210 for a pair of 700 inertia that would pass as dead stock if not for the outsole. Not much at all on other stuff. Check places like GOAT for used prices. You’ll have to go at least 50 below that for what you can hope to get. I just knew I wasn’t wearing them so I wasn’t that worried about the price

    If youve got a Journeys nearby they usually have one on the shelf. Go by and check one out in person.

    You know how people love to walk around all day with their legs rubbing against a rubber like material with a reservoir to collect water around their feet if it starts raining?

    I didn't either until a few years ago when my local shop had a few Astro Boy Bearbricks. Still not sure exactly what it is.

    So what is the connection between 24 year old you and the shoes?

    Nothing specific, I just liked little rave girls and that looks like something they'd wear. A 44 year old woman would probably look dumb wearing them to Publix.

    As someone who has to wear Muck boots for hours on end sometimes, i chuckle at the thought of some dumb 20 year old parading around the city in giant rubber boots. Theyll be bare footed after the 2nd time theyve stopped to dump the sweat out.

    Also bought my fiancée some rose whisper dunks from stockx and I’m 90% sure they are fake. Have a made in China sticker in them and she has a lot of dunks and these are much stiffer

    They may be fake but lots of Nikes are made in China.
