Sneakers |OT| Hypebeasts We Know About Ya

I'm happy that most people here who wanted a pair of space jams were able to cop a pair. My little one was sick, and I totally forgot to jump on Nike Canada till mid day. I was able to still get a pair in my size (8.5). Shout out to Nike for finally releasing enough for everyone to take a win.

I got them, even though my wallet says I shouldn't have. I need one more shoe that I have been questing for and that is the XI bred. Hoping for a reissue next year.

Same here lol. I really didn't need them, but couldn't resist when Shoe Palace had those pairs available late.

Was planning on buying some 3.0 ultra boosts, but that'll have to wait until after the new year now. I'm done for this month after Space Jams and the NMD's the week before.
 
I dun goofed.

Woke up at 6:50 AM Saturday....

Saw the Space Jam 11s in my size....could have carted and checked out easy...thought to myself, ehh, these prob won't sell out, lemme watch some video reviews.

15 min later: OOS.

RIP.

If you were getting them from Nike directly, you had to jump on them right at launch time. If you were buying from another place online, you had a few chances to get them. Heck, Finish Line and Shoe Palace had some available as late as last night. But you had to be on it. If I hadn't walked into Foot Locker and they showed them to me in my face, I would have just held on to that L.

Yeah, I was on NDC right as the page hit 7:00 AM...I could've just bought them and went back to sleep....but I was arrogant. Sigh. I'm gonna call a couple of places here to see if they have any left from returns / people not picking up.

But...Oh well.....here's hoping for a restock.
 
i'm not a sneaker guy as i mentioned before, are these yeezy/spacejam sneakers you guys talk about well-made, or are they expensive simply because of the brand they're affiliated with?

i guess what i'm trying to ask is, would a pair of yeezy sneakers fall apart easily, or are they actually high-quality products in terms of craftsmanship?

Yeezy v2's seem really well-made from the pairs I've handled in person.

Are they worth $220? I'd say no. Part of that price tag is the hype / Kanye name imo. But they're solid shoes as far as how they're constructed for sure.

This happened to me yesterday. I kept adding to cart and it finally loaded to another page and had it in cart. So I pressed on the PayPal button to checkout and it was stuck loading. Ending up just reloading the page because I had to leave my computer and the same thing happened. Refreshed again and was able to checkout with PayPal. Normally I don't refresh but had no choice and I think it help speed things up to checkout on PayPal.

Pretty much what happened. I took the chance and decided to reload but thankfully still in my cart. Another tip apparently was to open a new browser tab and it should also still be in the cart.
 
How much time does the seller get if its confirmed? He confirmed on Saturday and still has not shipped it to GOAT yet.

FAQs


How do I ship the sneakers I've sold?

Once you receive the label, simply package your sneakers in a standard cardboard box, attach the label and drop it off with the correct courier within 72 hours of the order being placed. Please do not ship sneakers using only the shoebox. Ship each sale separately and make sure to use the shipping label that corresponds to the order.

My sneakers just sold. What do I do next?

Congrats! Please first confirm the order, then tap generate label. We’ll then send you your prepaid, pre-addressed shipping label, which is paid for by the buyer. Each shipping label has a tracking number connected to the order for us as well as for the buyer to track.

As soon as you receive your shipping label, print it, carefully double box the sneakers, tape the label to the box and drop it off with the correct courier. Once the package is dropped off and scanned by the courier, please mark Dropped Off in the app.

Note: If your sale is not confirmed within 24 hours and shipped within 72 hours from the order being placed, it will be canceled.

So he has until Tuesday to give you a tracking number If not, it should be cancelled from what I see, or you'll have to contact their CS.

Edit: Jesus Christ, fucking mobile lol.

The only problem is the same problem I have with my black tokyo NMDs, I hate wearing limited shoes because I'm terrified of ruining them. Guess I'm just going to stare at them for ages...

Got my Ultra Boost 3.0 yesterday. Damn are they comfortable and the PK material feels so good. After getting these I don't think I'm gonna fuck with the uncaged version any more.
 
This is supposedly the most available Yeezy so maybe with resell price going down they'll be easier to cop but I still think I will hold an L at the end of the day. I got through on the chocolates, hopefully I'm lucky again.

I'll try my usual raffles and whatnot (and the confirmed app) but also expecting an L.

If there really are a lot of pairs available though hopefully that will lower the resell. The three black colorways that recently came out are already lower as far as resell than previous Yeezys.

Yeah I might give the confirmed app a chance this time. It's only a 15 minute drive or so to get into range and I suppose I can do some Christmas shopping at whatever ATL mall while I'm at it. Plus I'll have time to pick them up too since I took the weekend off.

Yeezy releases seem to always fall on the days I work...lol

I hate instagram raffles. Makes me feel like I'm just spamming my friends.

Don't forget the Champs app! I know two people who hit on the Champs app with the black Yeezys.

I'm only 10 minutes away from a Champs store doing a Yeezy launch so would love to get them on there.

I really want these oreos so I'm crossing my fingers I get lucky with the larger stock. Not getting my hopes up though.
 
Want to get TW, love my TW uncaged so much that I'm scared I'm going to wear them out too soon
I already have the white 1.0s and am more interested in the Uncaged CNYs dropping early next year.

Only 3.0s I want atm are the Grey (Because I never got a pair in 1.0), Royals and the Parleys.

Got 2.0 Royals that I love with that SS discount posted on NT. Will never love another UB Royal as much because of that special deal :)

Wow Adidas UK is selling UB 3.0 for £130, that's roughly 155 yoyos or 165 USD. Versus Adidas IE, which is selling them for 180 yoyos! Anyone buying, try from a UK site!
