Honestly, I think Jordan Brand is going to flood the market with these 12s. I heard one store had 600 pairs. It should be like the 72-20s. I can see resell being high around 300isj about two weeks in and then stabilize around 260ish. The flint 12s did the same thing although they're not as hyped as the flu games.

"just a pair of Jordans"? in the grand scheme of things aren't the flu game 12s one of the most popular jordans ever? lol

Yeah i bite my tongue when he said "just a pair of jordans"

i owned an og pair of the 12s back in high school but someone broke into my locker and stole them.

I removed the cage on my all white UBs.

Instant regret.

Not my photo, but I think the cage actually makes it look better.

Interesting that END have now switched to a raffle system for their Launches site. Odds still probably stacked well against being able to buy anything but better than hitting a blank white page I suppose.

im sure that they will probably still get backdoored but now they just have to deal with the hassle of canceling orders so the real winners can purchase. They should've did the "trial run" on these less popular release then do the Yeezys but I guess they needed to come out with fire out the gate to get people to come in the first place.

I will literally vomit if they release Bred / Varsity 6s. I didn't fuck with those infrared 6s that were released awhile ago since those shits were pink. The Varsity 6s might literally be my favorite sneaker of all time, no lie.

EDIT: Saw that its your collection, not the upcoming releases. I just hyped myself up so much fml

Still haven't worn my white pair yet. They're still DS but I wore the Blacks since they were used. Might take them to the beach with me tho. Kick some sand in them or something.

I liked the Varsity 6s too. The 2014 release were definitely too pink but the 3M made up for it. Only thing I didn't like about the Varsity 6s is the suede material gets really ashy. I had two pairs (overpaid at the time, I was a young, impulsive sneakerhead at the time). I gave one to my cousin and kept the other which ended up getting stolen. When I gave the extra pair to my cousin, I was under the assumption that he would take a little care of them. Nope. They're pretty messed up lol. There's no restoring suede either which sucks but whatever. I ended up getting these 2001 pair for cheaper than what I bought the Varsitys for and DS too.

I get mine in next week. I'll do a follow up but I read reviews and they're basically 1:1 with discrepancies in tags. The h&m version that I happen to come across and tried on we're kinda comfy. Only problem is I'm kinda over the drop crotch look and the calf area was basically leggings.

Bout time this turned into a Sneaker/Streetwear thread.

If you want pants I recommend i love ugly's zespy pants (they have a zipper at the bottom), or something from Publish.

2016 VS 2006. The original SB Jordans were a collaboration between Tinker Hatfield and Paul Rodriguez. Glad I got them both!

Has any of you guys copped a pair of Inneva Woven? They look pretty cool. Been thinking on grabbing a black pair, but would like to hear some impressions before I do so.

Very comfortable, the woven material is extremely soft. The upper has some stretch to it so it changes to the shape of your foot a bit. Runs long and a bit narrow so sizing is key. I'd say try a pair on first if you can, but if buying from NDC you can always return them anyway.

I am going to be in this small town in North Dakota this weekend because I'm taking my family to a waterpark. Last time I was here the Jordan 4 "Legend Blue" was released. I walked in to Scheels and bought a pair. I also saw one other guy trying on the "Legend Blue" 12s, I didn't ask about them because I already had a pair. I always wondered if they just had pairs sitting and nobody knew to look there. I guess I'll find out this weekend.

I have two pairs of UBs and have been debating whether I want to get the triple white as well. I guess I'll wait since I still haven't been able to cop a pair of NMDs. Feels bad mang.

Shoot for the white OG NMDs releasing Saturday.

Although after finally buying NMDs, they don't hold a candle to the UBs in comfort or aesthetics in my opinion.

After seeing pics, I'm hoping to pick up the Metallic Blue Jordan 1s that are hopefully dropping in June.

Also, I tried on the women's black UBs at the Adidas store (as they were out of the men's version) and man those are a shade narrower than I thought they'd be. Will have to probably go half a size up after converting from the men's size.

Going after these, which are women's exclusive:

I just learned that my local Footlocker will receive only one pair per size. Thought these were GR.
