Missed everywhere for the SBB 2.0.

Ugh, hopefully resale isnt too insane. Still have to get the original version too...

At least the L was swift. I haven't hit on SNKRS in a good minute.

Edit - At least I hit on a pair for my girl. I'll take that W!

So when did f'ing Nike decide to change from a draw to fcfs?? It was stated as a draw this week. F'ing hell. Put my order in at 10:00 and still an L. Fuuuuuuuh
 
Can anyone recommend some good nike trainers that are also waterproof?

I current use the following:

Nike Flyknit Lunar 3
Nike Lunar TR1

Both of which I love, but when the rain falls it goes right through to my socks. Would like something with the same level of comfort.

Not quite wholly waterproof, but more than water resistant, the upcoming Nike Shield Pack may be up your alley. It's a specific collection of shoes and clothing made to handle training in the dark, cold and rain.

Though you can probably find pairs of shoes from last year floating around, the 2016 versions should be arriving soon - they usually change up the shoe models in the pack from year to year.

I have a pair of Free 5.0s from last year's Shield Pack and they've handled the rain pretty well. The 3M detailing in the shoes for low light conditions help keep you visible at all times.

I told myself I wouldn't try for the SBB after I copped the sb dunks but I thought lady luck was on my side. Nope. Another L!

Converse do waterproof Chuck 2s, and they have lunarlon insole.
 
Almost bought the yin yang 1s out of spite. 100$ is a good price. Eh I'll keep my money for now. I still have these sober mondays that I ruined with dye lol

those orange Saucony's, what are they?
Saucony G.R.I.D. SD which is part of a "Pumpkin" pack. Just saw on NT the release date is on Oct 21st. The other colorway is below.

Personally, I don't like the baby blue color they added to these.

I have the SBB 31 in my cart as a consolation. Don't know if I want these.

The blue on those pumpkin pack ruins the shoe for me

The perforated toebox/midsole (?) and toe cap pieces both matching looks so nice. Especially with the laces.

Speaking of Saucony: their collab with Wolverine, an all-leather Shadow, just dropped and I am super tempted. But I need to know of it's waterproof before I drop 200+ $CAD on a pair.

edit: O FUCK I JUST SAW THE ORANGE SAUCONYS ON THE LAST PAGE. NEED THOSE.
 
Took the LaLa on the Away SBBs this morning. Resell is $350 for my size on GOAT. Just don't have the strength or desire. I'd rather get the OG for that price.

How do you guys store/display your shoes? I'm about to get my own spot soon and I'm not trying to have a bunch of shoe boxes stacked to the ceiling since I never wear the ones on the bottom
 
Copped a few RSBB. Did not even expect to hit. :3

Also just to reiterate I'll be doing carts for 750s. $200 per ATC and you pay after success for GAF cause I trust the community.

🙃

Pm me with any questions.

These are nice. Idk about the zipper for me tho

I love the minimalist/futuristic look of them. Also I have a pair of regular Blazer hi-tops, and the tongue sliding pisses me off to no end so I never wear them. I'm hoping this is a non issue with these ha

So it looks like I'll be able to grab those recent glitch camo NMD XR1's. Have a line on both colors for $200 each, but I kinda want to limit myself to one. Y'all gotta help me decide on which colorway:



White one is more unique, but I'm leaning towards the black. Think they'll be easier to rock on a daily basis.

Black is better. White glitch just looks weird to me...
