    Thats basically what i do with mine. I fucked up one time and put them on thinking id be back in an hour or two. Ended up walking around in them all day. That night my hips and back hurt so bad i couldnt sleep. But theyre great for just slipping on and running to the store.

    Ive seen one on twitter claiming a win but never posted any proof. Im sure they are stupid limited if they were originally meant to be F&F but it seems like atleast one or two people who got them would have posted about it by now. Also i havent seen any bitching about people not getting them. Just a bunch of thirsty people begging him for pairs like he actually reads comments and shit. Weird all the way around.

    I was thinking of cancelling as well but looked at it and it says all sales are final with no refunds. If they cancel yours let me know. I may do the same.

    NRG is supposed to note they are limited hut that seems like bullshit lately as lots of pairs get labeled that. And na, don't have 90 ridgerock. I only have the am1.

    They emailed me back and said they ship within 2-5 days. I'll assume they mean business days but they'll be running behind and it will ship next week.

    Edit. I just got a shipped notification but it’s actually from PayPal saying a label was going generated. Creme still hasn’t actually emailed me yet.

    Yeah so the long and short is it was a Ponzi scheme and he ran out of money it appears and dissolved his business. Looking like I’m out about $2k in preorders unless AmEx saves me.

    Yeah it was good till it wasn’t. I don’t really know any more details, did see one dude who had $77k in outstanding pre-orders. Worst part is all the stuff I had outstanding I didn’t really try for because I just assumed I’d get it eventually. UNC 6s being the headliner for me, but cg11, royalty 12, and about 9 other pair. Hopefully I can charge back via AmEx

    I've seen people over the years suggest be was big into crypto, so get a bunch of pre-order money, invest in crypto, pay out those pairs a year later from your profits? And if pre order 1 was 100 pairs, and pre order 2 was 200 pairs, the money was always growing. Just a guess though. So many rumors over the years. He posted pics of himself, his wife, and his kids though. Why do that? The whole things is weird and I really want/need to know the truth behind it all. Where did he get pairs? Backdoor or stockx? Both have been rumored.

    So people give him money to “invest” but the profit is future shoes? With the expectation of retaining capital?

    With the prices he sold pairs for and the amount he sold im not sure how buying through stockx would have been possible. I know he was backdoored a ton of his pairs from a lot of different sources. He was one of the big ones who got a ton of the Trophy Room 1’s from Marcus. And i definitely think some of his pairs were the highest quality fakes. Its really the only explanation on how he could sell so many pairs and why he had the long timeline on some of them that he had.

    Get pre order money

    Make 20% over a year

    Send out shoes at 10% loss

    Net 10%
