I need winter boots. SF-AF 1s are limited, and cost 265. Damn.. that's a bit too much

Limited release is more off-putting to me.

Got the 3M rope laces in from Rope Lace Supply and they look dope. Fit perfectly and all that. Put the white pair in my 3M white ultra boosts already (other pair is just the normal laces in 2.0 triple whites for comparison).

I can't remember who it was, but I found about them after someone in here mentioned the site, so thanks!

I might pass on the black toes. Already got the breds and reverse shattered backboards this year. Really only looking to grab the chicagos and royals to finish up my Jordan 1 collection.

Yea I like them too, especially the olive pair. Snkrs app is saying $200 for them which is better than $265 but still expensive

I have a weatherproof pair of AF1's I got on clearance a few years back that I use for the winter, I'm guessing those recent duckboot AF1's might go on clearance if you're looking for a cheaper winter alternative.

I have a pair of Green AF1 Duckboots so I should get the black SF-AF1s.

But damn, those green ones look fantastic. I need to stick with the plan. Go with black.

I really much prefer the women's colourways on these AF1 joints than the men's. Unfortunately they only go up to a US9 so it's a pass for me.

Yea whiffed on the olive sf af1 due to the snkrs app fucking up. Went directly from coming soon to sold out. Restarted the app and sizes showed up but 12 was already gone.

Let me see, is there anything I want for this year? No?

I'm retiring until the royals y'all. No more Ls until 2017.

Guess I can go ahead and get that PS4 pro instead lol

When are these Black Toes gonna release then? They delayed the Game 3 pack on Nike EU last week as well.

Bummed I didn't think to check Footlocker at 8. Just assumed it'd still be 9am but the clocks changed last week, so I missed out on where I've usually copped my Js. Disappointed. In myself!

Hey guys, I've been lurking for awhile and finally wanted to join in on the conversation and share in all the love of sneakers with my fellow GAFheads.

I got unbelievably lucky this weekend! I hit on the raffle for the END NMD's. Hit on both the olive and black SF AF1's. I'm about to pickup my black toes that I hit on reserve on the FTL app. 🍀

Cuz I'm not a hater, here's all my tips: For the AF1's, I hit olive one on snkrs app. I made sure I was logged in beforehand at like 6:55am lol. Like everybody else, I noticed once 7 hit they didn't load. I just kept clicking through all the tabs (feed, in stock, upcoming) in hopes that this might force a reload. The AF1's were favorited ❤️ so I had a quick way to go back to it at all times. All my payment info was stored already so I truly believe iPhone touch id came in clutch once the page loaded.

I hit on the black ones on the desktop snkrs app. I was logged in already and once that one reloaded, I added to cart and my size and payment info was already stored and I checked out. That one put me on the queue, so I was just lucky.

Im sorry to see all you guys take L's 😞 I hesitated in posting my pickup because I don't want to upset anybody any further but I'm just too damn happy that can't resist. Real talk though, if you find yourself getting that upset about taking L's...it's time to take a break. I get the frustration but love yourself enough to chill for your own mental health. Nike/adidas/JB/etc. don't give a shit about you.

Lol that was my long way of saying hi to the community. I'll try to post pics once my stuff comes in.

Yea I tried clicking all over the snkrs app for the olives to see if it would refresh. By the time I decided to reboot the app, the biggest size that showed up was 11.5.

I'm good on the black toes though, got one pair a few weeks ago during the early release and another reserved through the Nike+ app. Wish I had that kinda luck on other releases. Didn't try at all today. Might try to trade one for the RSBB.

Just got home. I managed to double up on the Black Toes. I managed to win a local raffle. And the Foot Locker app let me reserve a pair in New Jersey. Ended up being a long-ass drive (almost two each way) but happy to finally buy a pair of 1s at retail. Struck out on the SBB 2.0, Banned 2016 (paid resell), UNCs and Fragments. Was getting tired of all the Ls.

Trying to sell shoes through GOAT for the first time. A pair of UB White 1.0.

Are AF1s really going to make a comeback in 2016? These new ones look great.

I thought they were going to stay in the early 2000s with baggy jeans and oversized sports jerseys...

Nike Canada is fucked. The Black Toes still shows available but it won't let you add them to your cart. Been trying all day yesterday. This morning size 8-10 are gone. FML. I hope I have better luck with the 3s.

I'm hearing that the Royal foams are releasing early than its slated January date

EDIT: Foams are releasing Dec.15 now. I have to pick either the Space Jams or Royal Blue Foams. Can't have both. FML

Yeah, resell for 1's has been tame for bigfoot sizes lately. Like when the Breds released as a draw I figured I'd be paying a ton for them, but they came down to like $230-$240 eventually.

Does anyone have a pair of the Nike duckboot? Thinking of grabbing a pair for the winter season. It's either those or the Vans MTE
