So glad June has nothing I really want. Ended up buying an iPad Pro for my other hobbies lol. July is pretty bare, too, for me except those 5s. And then August...

So mad, got my 750s today and the recommended half size down from normal size is apparently a load of crap. I can fit them but they're really right around my heel. :[

Lol adidas sizing strikes again.
I can only imagine the struggle for a size 15
It sucks. Sometimes if you hop on a new release right away size 15's will sit slightly longer, but looking at resell for something that's been out is rough because you rarely see that size on eBay or GOAT or whatever.
And sometimes they don't even make size 15 like the UNDFTD Dunks that I really wanted =[

Damn son. Always stay true to size or go up IMO. You can always wear a bit thicker socks or stuff the shoes a little bit (or add a tab in the heel), but you can't work with smaller sizing at all...

Damn, LeBron might sell some shoes now lol.
Got a question here.
I wear a 10.5 in Flynit Racers and they fit perfect sockless. Barely any room in the toe box. Other Nike shoes (air max's, flex runs) I tend to wear 10.5 as well with one exception in 11.
Now I live in Canada and I've been wanting a pair of Ultra boosts for awhile. My friend is in Vegas and I asked him to look for a pair for me.
So far he's found UB's but in size 11's only. Does anyone have both shoes and can give advice whether it's worth it to go half a size up? I heard UB's run a bit tight but they stretch out anyways.
I won't be running in them much, if at all. Mostly for lifting/casual wear but I'd still not like to worry about heel slipping or anything like that.

If your only wearing racers sockless at a 10.5 then an 11 in boosts will be perfect.
I find both shoes to run small. Racers are super narrow whereas boosts are tighter in the toe box.

the Soldier 10s he had and Kyrie shoes were looking hard. might have to cop.

Lol nope. I am going to cop some kyrie's though.
Also shout out to OC one time . Apparently sneaker n stuff ships to states ninja fast . Already got my metallic navy ones .... sooooooo gooood
How long have you had them? All three of my pairs felt tight but after a day or two they loosened up around the ankles.

Mine loosened up after a couple wears as well. Some people put cups in them to stretch it out.
Yep, they're good. I ordered core black ub's from them for $60 under retail and they arrived within 3 days.Lol nope. I am going to cop some kyrie's though.

The XIIIs are a lost cause.. they did elite version and it was still hideous. Thats when I felt nike knew they can't do anything about it now just gave up on it and have lebron wear the upcoming Soldiers instead for most of the finals.
Nike did good with these new kyries. Easy to wear casually and performs great as a game shoe too. The price is also just right.
It really makes me curious to see what Nike does with Lebrons after he's done. Just not sure the retro market will be there for Lebrons.

The Xs were the last great Signature performance wise. The XIs were great aesthetically. But Nike has dropped the ball on most of their sigs lately besides the Kyries and the performance of the XX9.
The new KD looks hot though.

I love these shoes. What do you guys think.
Pretty solid. Here in France, Reebok is dead so it's cool to see some here.

Are they the new ones, or last years? Either way 150 is a good deal if they're new
Not completely sure if it's the latest model, but it's the third one on this amazon listing: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01AYF71F2/?tag=neogaf0e-20
(I had a 20% coupon.)
And yeah it's new.

Idk about Amazon. They do have fake Ultraboosts out. Hope yours is legit.
LeroyPantwether
Member
This. TBH, I wouldn't touch amazon for shoes. I've done it before for a good deal on some Jordan eclipses, and those shits were super suspect.
TheTurboFD
Member
Depends, if it's sold by amazon and not 3rd party you should be good. That's how I got my wool greys :]
On a side note I finally wore these
LeroyPantwether
Member
In my case , the item was from a different seller but fulfilled through Amazon prime , so ymmv
At the end of the day you really have little to worry about , Even if you get fakes , just file a claim with Amazon. Their CS is so awesome that they'd probably refund you and tell you to keep the shoes .

Is it wrong that part of me really wants the Yeezy Season 2 crepe boots? There's something about the look of them that I really dig, but $650 is hard to justify.
panthapanda
Member
No, I like them too. Only real issue, besides price, is how comfortable it is since it's not boost.
Auron_Kale
Member
Yeah, would love to hear impressions on them but part of me feels like they'd probably be on the level of other crepe sole boots like Clarks, which isn't bad but not something I'd like to stand around in all day long.
Wow. I always wanted these. Nice score!
