Black/white ones restocked earlier this year but quickly sold out. Ebay is your best bet or on sneaker groups. I traded my red/black ones and have so much regrets =(
Why can't I cop these in Europe

I like the Air Max Flyknit shoe. The 20XX are an improvement over the current model.
The sole looks the same while the upper material looks different.
I can only imagine how much they cost. The 2015 are almost $200 for a shoe with hardly any utility.

first look at the Air Max 2016s
does anybody actually like the recent Air Maxes? they're really high for a running shoe and they don't look that good.
I don't like the placement of the swoosh.
Quite frankly, the knit thing can be cool, here it looks a bit like a fancy sock.

AM Flyknits cost as much as Foams
if those don't hit outlets by the truckload i'll be shocked.
Yeah, they are expensive. They get discounted by $40 on FNL in around a month or two.
But then again Kobe 9 with FK cost a boat load too.

Big front swooshes on Nike's running shoes are used as 'television logos' on lightweight racing models that their elite runners use so it will be better seen on TV...this Air Max isn't anywhere close to a lightweight racing shoe so the 'television logo' looks out of place.

I want a pair. Just waiting to see a running performance review from Sole Review or other running shoe blog.
in comfort is similar to the roshes, and peformance is really good.
I copped the olives off DSM had my page monitor ping me and checked out pretty easy.

What dropped today? The Patch Air Max?
Those look dope, what's retail on them?
And I'm a huge fan of those olive AM1s thought they had already dropped.

Adidas Tubular Runner Snake Pack
The red color is nice, the silhouette is nice, the details not so much. I don't like the double coloring on the black ones either. The boost sole is nice.
If I squint, I really like them.

$180. Not cheap, then again the Ultraboost is Adidas' flagship performance runner. For 60 dollars less you have the Pure Boost 2.0s, which are a little more similar to Roshes.
Adidas has done these colorways on the Tubulars before so I think these are kind of lazy.
Still waiting for the fucking Mocs and Xeno Fluxes to drop locally, get it together, Adidas!

The Teal AJ 4 went poof quick. I wasn't really following the pulse on that release and thought the XX would be the more limited option so I focused on that first. Bad idea.
Face it Tiger..

Well, I got rid of the Yeezy Boosts in exchange for Air Jordan 1 x Fragment. I think it was the right decision, for a shoe I can wear with ease, and will probably never be released again.
Spiderjericho
Member
Not a bad trade. I would do the same since I desire the Fragments more than the Yeezys. I like the looks of the Fragments and it goes with more fits.
But I would like to try a pair of the Yeezy's to see the comfort. That's and materials are probably the areas that the Yeezys win.

Definitely an upgrade IMO, but tradewise I think the Yeezys are selling for more than Fragments (at least around the Bay Area). Yeezys are going anywhere from $1200-$1500 while the Frags can be had for about 9 to 1K. Seems like you're still up because it seemed like you got the Yeezys for retail?

I did get the yeezys for retail and the guy actually added money on top due to the difference in values.
The boosts themselves are not a bad shoe, I actually like them, just hoping for some new colorways in the future. With this AJ1 hypewave inflating prices on any NA 1s, I figured it be best to do the exchange now rather than wait for legit pairs to dry up and prices rising even higher.
I remember Shadow 1s were selling for 180-240 around the months after release, now I cant find them lower than 400.

I heard about the Shadow jump in price and was surprised they were inching toward Bred territory.
I think I got only a pair online (I have a size that tends to sell out quick). However, as stated, the hype locally was on the AJ 4 Toro (which it deserved).
I was able to find two pairs when I went to Miami via Stock Locate.
I see the Black Toes are climbing up in price now. This is crazy. The Black and White will follow that. Right now, they're low price. Personally, the quality on the B/W was the best prior to the Fragments and Lasers.

with all the momentum 1s have, specially with the chicagos coming in may, i find it unlikely that nike wont re-release royals/shadows/breds in the new mold within 2 years.
At least I hope so!
or do you guys think nike is gonna let the hype pass after the chicagos/unc drop? they have no real classic colorways lefts to retro [NA] after that.
Pretty slick tech here. https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/orphe-smart-shoes-for-artists-and-performers/x/10213877

My favorite kicks to wear with Tech Fleece pants on a rainy day here in Seattle.

Those shoes!! I love them but it started some weird Flyknit hype especially for that color.
The average black/white FK Lunar 3s sold out. The other ones didn't. Aesthetically, I think the others were nicer.

Those Y3 are nice, I like the blue with the black and white stripes, they'd go well with a summer time look, something like shorts and a light hoodie/sweater.
And my customized Adidas have arrived, thank you Adidas Canada.

Concord Lows
BHM Kobe 9

B/W AJ1s for me, as much as I'm quite fond of the B/W Racers. AJ1s got dat soft leather.
I have so many B/W kicks haha, my GF gets mad whenever I look at more B/W shoes cause she says I need more variety. It's just such a clean colorway...
Cheating, but my favorite "black and white" kicks are probably my Lance Mountains....but they're more red and blue now hahaha.
Other than that, probably my ACG Trainerendors. So happy I finally found a pair. My beaters now.
