That can't be true. Either that's a small traffic FTL or there's some backdoor action going on.

Anyone pick up/try the Nike Lunarepic Flyknits? Need a new pair of running shoes pretty badly, and I usually put at least 25+ miles a week on my kicks.

Got a call earlier today from Foot Locker.

Got mine and love them. They're so light and the cushioning is amazing. They're the best if you have at least an arch (low, regular or high) and a normal stride.
Here's what my pair look like:

Far as I'm aware NMDs run a little big. Flux runs small for me (8.5 but wear size 9 Fluxs), so you should be okay. But again, ymmv.

Hot damn, I love how fresh they look. Probably need to swing by a Nike store to try them out personally. They definitely look the part, just a little concerned with longevity. My Free 4.0s held up pretty well though...

Thanks and I personally tried mine on at a running store, at which where my running coach works at and suggested I get them. I did have to go to Niketown to get that color way as the running store didn't have the color I wanted. Wear and tear should be on par with the other Nikes I feel. Personally, I'm looking forward to when the non-cuff version drops so that I can get another pair.

Hoo boy can't wait for the sock darts going on nikeid next week!
It's a small footlocker but I can't believe they are limited only to one pair for each size. I think employees got first dibs. I might try NDC but I think I'll just get frustrated.

Well that was painless. My right shoe had like a paint drip/scuff on them so I asked to swap it out. Glue isn't that bad.

Threw them on real quick. A little disappointed in the quality. JB is definitely slacking.
Of all the releases, NMD's have probably the hardest to find or buy period. It doesn't help that they release in EU first

Most likely. Those resell for a lot lol
Shiiiiit. I've always liked the collabs 997-999 with J Crew and Concepts but those prices are steep lol.
Might have to talk to my buddy who knows this shit to see if he can help me find a deal.
Nothing you can do but wait until the server decides to respond.
Kennedy or Seal? The first is in the $800 range, but the latter you might find a deal around $250.

Strongly considering putting my NMD money towards a pair of Magistas...

Magistas are dope. I'm just not a big fan of that bottom.
Since I'm not into City Socks but if you really want that NMD hype : http://www.hanon-shop.com/i/q/S79152/adidas-nomad-city-sock-primeknit
I didn't check if they ship to US tho.
Buy them and wear them don't play the scalper game please.

Lower the supply, promote the fact they're limited and increase the demand that they'll sell out. Adidas is on a roll with the UB, NMDs, Yeezy, etc. They have a nice market and the opinion on their products is definitely shipping. I wonder what they're angle is? Seems like Nike has the volume and sales. UA seems to be the low cost alternative volume leader to Nike.
But it's definitely a good time to be a sneaker head. There's something for everyone.
And I agree with the SNKRS address shenanigans. Can't believe we still haven't this right yet lol.
that colorway is dope mah man
Those are fire. Not sure I've ever seen those before.

Aren't those women's Jordans? The view angle makes them look high.
edit: Ah no ok I saw the link, I have a pair of these:
Also have a second pair in 9.5US if anyone wants them, never worn, still in their original box.

To quote Jay-Z, "Hov did that so hopefully you wouldn't..."
As someone who @ one time had more than 450 pairs of shoes (and still has way too many). Thread carefully. It can be very addictive and an expensive hobby.

Yep, these are definitely on the to do list.
