You're in luck fam, will be dropping in Vegas as well.
Apparently it's the 750s in Grey/Gum
Personally not a fan at all. Curious to see if the 650s end up dropping this summer, or another batch of 350s.

I've always wanted a pair of the all black 750s. Will try snagging a pair of these and sell then purchase the blacks.

No one buys Yeezys 750 cuz they like them. Ultimate trade bait yo.

*shrug* I like the 750s way more than the 350s, which just look like every other shoe dudes are wearing right now.

I don't mind the 750s, it's just I think the gum midsole doesn't suit the shoe well at all. The grey 750s with the white midsoles or the all black 750s are dope IMO. Still prefer the 350s though, but I can respect the 750s.

I like the 750s too but I would trade those any day for some frags or 6 other pairs of shoes like what I've seen on these YouTube videos lol

Just got some UBs in the new blue color way.
This is literally the best boost base shoes I own.
It's insanely comfortable.

I didn't see the images at first and thought you meant these ones:
Decided to go for these MC Flyknit Prestos off NikeiD. Just gotta hope they come before I leave the country at the end of the month.
Well, I genuinely love the 350 Boost shoes, but sadly I could NEVER get them.
Any idea when they're next going to drop so I can waste hours refreshing a page, reaching checkout and still glitch out?

Oh hey. Adidas confirmed app opened in ATL. Will try. Kinda stupid I have to be in a certain proximity to reserve but whatever. I'm going to be in town sooner or later. I'm literally 15 miles or so away from the city so that range is dumb.
Will save me the headache from trying online. If I don't get them then whatever. Sizing on the 750s are dumb so I went with a size range of 7.5-9.

My go to at the moment and favourite sneaker pick up of the year to date!
Ordered the Vans x Nintendo Sk8 Hi's today.... because I freaking just had to!! Wanted to cop a few of the others, but I had to stop myself. Wish they did a Zelda inspired Authentic (they did a Classic Slip On instead), I'd be all over those!
Here's some of the others from the collection:

Those Sk8 Hi's look awesome. Might have to pick those up.
Yes, they are.
Vans stated when stock is gone, they are unlikely to restock at all. That said, they have a large amount of stock rolling out slowly.
They are indeed limited and you are best getting in now.
Remove insole, remove laces, throw them in a pillowcase/delicates bag, throw the bag in the washer with a couple towels, bit of detergent, set to warm

Could hand clean with something like Jason Markk or Crep. Use a standard brush on the midsole and bottom, but use a softer brush on the upper. Can also use an eraser like Mr. Clean to get out scuffs on the midsole/boost material since a brush might not be able to get those out. Good luck though, all whites are the hardest shoes to keep fresh.
Yes I hate having to be in proximity of the app. I'm a pretty close drive to Chicago but not within the "range." Makes it useless if you aren't in a tiny area
Those are the deep sea ones.
Those look amazing imo, but are only available in women's sizes right now for some reason.

Thanks guys~ I haven't owned a pair of white sneakers since probably AF1s back in middle school. I was considering getting those white sneaker upkeep/cleaning things from sneaker stores (do they still have these?) These are gonna be a pain to keep fresh haha.

Jason Markk do a kit with the cleaning solution and brush.
Might be worth picking up some Repel or Crep Protect too.
Here's a video of them giving tips whilst cleaning some Boosts and other shoes.

Hot damn. Flu Games really dropped in price. 230 right now. JB making resellers cry right now. They must've flooded the market.
I usually don't like low Jordans, but I'm sort of feeling the Navy/Gum 11's. Might have to pick these up
I heard the same from a friend who scored a pair.
Didn't you mention the quality was kinda meh also?

I like the 11s they're releasing but I hate lows. Great colorway tho and can't go wrong with gum bottoms. That's the southern playa in me.
And yeah, quality control was garbage. I have glue everywhere on my pair but nothing a little cotton swap and nail polish can't fix. My first pair had some paint drip on the mudguard. If these were to releases at a 220$ price point, they would've went the way of the maroon 6s and WC4s. I still expect a lot of restock a however.
But still, I didn't expect price point to plummet so fast. I hasn't been a week and it's already below the master 12s which is crazy. For such an iconic shoe, I expected it to hover around 280-300 for about a month and then go down but a week? Resellers crying right now.

Copped AF1 Ultra Flyknits
Been really thinking about getting the lows of this colorway.
Also man I'm so ready for the yeezy drop. I'm putting raffles everywhere and I even bought a server near adidas HQ in NC and hosted my bot on it LOL

This thread. Reps and bots lol.
That's the first time I've seen the Flyknit Prestos. They look like UBs a little.
Going for the XIs today. JB has their foot on my neck right now lol.

One would say UBs look like Prestos. Either way, they're definitely similar.

That's fine, I take way less L's with my bot. I buy 2 of every release that I know is going to be hot. 1 to keep and 1 for trades.

Struck out on the Cherry Reds.
It's like 1:30 in Japan smh...

I mean this is the reality of the shoe game now, we have to deal with it. Crazy limited quantities and releases getting botted to hell

My only excuse for not using a bot is that it'll help me save money. Seriously. Near guaranteed cops is not good for my wallet.
Plus I tried one before and it was pretty bad. It was more of an auto refresher and it did add to cart but I still ended up carting manually before it lmao. So dumb.
