    I'd just make the high offer and check it daily to stay the top offer. Someone will eventually accept the offer. May take months but that's best value.

    No idea. Make the highest bid and let it ride. Or if it would still be in the range youre willing to pay you could make a bid a little closer to last sale and that might get you a quicker bite.

    Anyone got a pair of boots in the winter (snow - not just 50 degree dblplay1212 winters) that they like?

    You are an idiot. Get some trail runners.

    I should ask what kind of hiking/backpacking, prior to recommendation, but idiot status stands

    Sorry - I ment terrain. If you're hiking the Grand Canyon, you'll likely want more than trail runners & ankle support would be desirable. If you aren't dealing with much elevation gain/loss, trail runners should be sufficient

    REI has a bunch of trail runners marked down, as new models are releasing - I swear by the Altra Lone Peaks for hiking, but I'm a zero-drop guy. Salomon makes some great hiking shoes too & looks like they have a bunch of Nike trail shoes marked down as well, if you're brand loyal

    I’d say get the new 9s that just released… pretty big upgrade from the 8s, from what I’ve read.

    Those are the Black Toes. I would have actually went for them if they just redid the 2016 pair. I hated every change they made for this pair.

    Stupid. But i wonder if it was on purpose and they are trying to capitalize on people missing out on the banneds. Theyll probably catch a few people that wouldnt have wanted them but missing out the day before makes them pull the trigger.

    It doesn’t seem like making the Banneds so limited has made a difference for any of the other shoes.

    Can you get new laces from Nike for shoes like the pegasus premium? I’ve worn them twice and one of the laces broke. I’m unsure how as I’ve never retied them from how they came

    No, Nike doesn't sell replacement laces. Sucks for shoes with specific laces like that.

    Maybe order a women's pair and ship them back missing one lace. Idk if they'd be the same length with them being smaller.

    Keep both women's laces & ship the pair back with the 1 mens - problem solved

    I forgot my shoes this past weekend on a short out of town trip so I bought some sambas that matched my fit perfectly. Unfortunately the back kept drilling my achilles so those will be going back. I also hit on two pairs of the lucky shorts 3's if anyone needs an 11.5.

    You have to give the OGs a minute to form to foot - then they are comfortable AF. Decons are where it's at with Sambas though

    Yeah they will chew your heel up same as Stan smiths when you’re breaking them in. I always wear mine to work with crew socks so they’re good to go now if I wanna wear them with no show and shorts.

    Tried for the AM1 Polys today, thought the colorway was nice. Launch was a disaster, product page wouldn't load after I did the "quest" thing.

    Same. Some of the guys on NT figured out there was a QR code on desktop that would take you to the right place. Sold out by the time I got there. Not even mad about it though, I'm good with og reds tbh.

    I want the Donkey Kong pair. Probably no chance i get them if its more of that quest shit. I took one look at it and realized i didnt know what was going on and i had no desire to try and find out.
