So when is Nike going to make the sequel to the Air Force?

LoL. Chuck Taylors are classics. Just come out with a new model.

I copped the "Banned" MetCon 1s today. I had a pair of the Orange/Blue Lagoon MetCon 1. Looking forward to the updated model and Bred colors.

The comfort level on Boost is ridiculous!

Anyone copping the 7s tomorrow? I ordered my first pair of roshe from Livestock; excited for them.

If anyone is interested Capsule Toronto is having their sale tomorrow in store and online. Hoping to cop another pair of Roshes if the price is right.

Picked up these two pairs this week.

Bought the khaki Roshe sneaker boots, and yesterday a Adidas Top Ten Hi in blue and white, they were on sale for 40$ Cad on nrml.ca
 
What is this? I just woke up 3pm U.S. central. Don't really need the get the 7s since I already got a pair but decided to check finish line anyway since I got this 20$ reward card and they let me checkout? Did these not get hyped and sellout? These are one of my all time favorite Js! Lol I'm expected cancellation email soon because I'm 5hrs late to a release and was still able to check out. Lol.

could it be that its just because its not that long since they last released? alot of ppl prob still sitting on the pair they bought last time possibly.
 
so women are getting the air max 95 grape

the 'what the' air max 95 has parts of the mens reverse grape

so whats the chances we will see the mens reverse grape released again?

its one of my most sought after and failed to find shoes..

Probably. That and the combination of price increase. The change in this shoe is so minuscule that no one cared either. I know a lot if people prefer the '11 pair like i do. I still think it's crazy tho. This is an Amazing shoe

and i must say first time wearing ROSHE. and omg..they are the most light weight, comfortable shoes i have ever worn. and for only 60-75 a pair its a steal. you have some air max costing over 150 and u wont get the comfort like these.

Yep I have the wolfgrey ones and they are my favorite on the comfort side, look great too, and yeah cheap.

I bought Rishe sneakerboots too, have yet to wear them, but they look great.
 
I stopped buying Roshes. I was a fan of the initial materials and simple color ways. Nike definitely went HAM which isn't a bad thing especially if you're a fan of the shoe.

Probably one of the best concept/designs Nike released in the last half decade. Simple. Comfortable. Interesting design.

I agree. I love air max' but I feel like I'm not even wearing shoes when I wear my Rosche's.

Nice choice by the way.

agreed. I'm done with Jordans, not worth the stress. I currently own 4 pairs of different colored roshes and I expect that collection to grow.

Sure, all depends on what you match them with. I prefer wolf gray.

Just a heads up. It seems Dover Street Market New York is doing in store raffles again for SBB 1's and Pinnacle.

ugh I can never catch a restock on SBB 1's.
 
I don't know how I feel about winning a pair of 2000 Infrared 6s on eBay for 180$. Damn near deadstock complete with original box, lacelocks, and Jordan card. "new but been sitting in the attic. Tried to sell in shop so a couple people tried on". Even the insole is still intact.

I don't know if I just robbed the man or what.
 
so this may be an odd request, but i've been trying to find a pair of shoes i had back in high school, and i just can't seem to get anywhere searching online. it was during the 2001/2002 school year, and they were high top nikes that had a reflective grey material on the outside that was stitched in a small square pattern, and a swish logo in red near the front, to the side a bit.

hoping someone could find these, as i've just wanted to find a picture of them forever now D:
 
Got them in the mail! Shoes are definitely legit. The air unit threw me off a bit because I never saw/heard of them fogging up like they did but, hey, you learn something new everyday. My only gripe is that the stitching on the upper heel tab on one of the shoes is not very good but that's Jordan Quality™ for you. I was taking the insoles out on one of the shoes and it was glued onto the shoe pretty well and as I was trying to pull the damn thing out with as little pressure as I could...well, the midsole kinda crumbled on me. Am cry. But it's ok, I'm going to wear the hell out of them until they completely fall off (probably in like 1 or 2 wears honestly). I got replacement midsoles ready to go when that happens. No idea why the toebox looks that way. Guy said something about the paper messing with the materials while in storage? Doesn't bother me too much though. Or maybe guy was just trying to fix something and just lied. Whatever. Probably just needs a good cleaning (which I am afraid to do).






Don't mind the sloppiness in the 2nd midsole. I'm still finishing up the touch-ups. Kinda excited to see how Flat Black looks on these since I think the Flat Black will look much better than the slightly glossy black on the original paint.

Also, how y'all feel about those Flyknit Air Force 1s? From the little I saw of them, I want them. Total gamechanger imo. Haven't worn AF1 since the Nelly song.

Got these Filling Pieces, on "sale" but screw you Canadian dollar, still hurts.


Probably won't get to wear them until next spring/summer.

Now the dreaded fall is coming, when I have to wear shoes I can sacrifice since they'll get dirty every time it rains :(

Might get some of that shoe-protecting product that causes even ketchup to bounce off, but I'm guessing it will give me cancer. Anyone tried it?

Anybody else looking to get the AJ6 low black/chrome?

Local retailers are telling me the shoes are coming out next weekend (Aug 29th), but sneaker websites still have the launch date for this weekend (Aug 22nd).

Anybody hear the same?

Welp fall is coming and I'm in dire need of some sort of boots. I got some Roshe sneaker boots but need at least two other pairs of boots. Gotta get that water/dirt repellant stuff. Love fall fashion, but I hate how much the rain ruins my shoes and often even stains my pants.
