Sneakers |OT| Hypebeasts We Know About Ya

Nice...very nice...but I (and I'm sure many others) have next to no chance at all finding these at retail.

For the Tiff dunk sb hi... Most SB accounts will get them from what I heard. My friend at Nike said that NDC will have plenty.

Yo any of ya'll ever wear shoes for a month and then forget you have them, just found these from like five years ago and I have to say I'm hyped they are in such good condition. They were underneath my bed, in depths beyond arm's reach.

Anyone got the powder blue 3s or the prelude 7s?
Lol at the Preludes. They were sold out before they tweeted it. Seriously, Nike Store is terrible. Their limited shoe strategy just encourages cheating.

Did get the Powder Blues. Wasn't too tough. It's kind of tacky but I love Retro 3s.

Interested in the New Balances, just not at that $200 price.

This place will have em at 2:30PM EST, US based so should be cheaper.

Nike says there's 'plenty' when it comes to any Air Jordan XI release...and still all hell breaks loose.

'Plenty' to me is that you're able to walk into your local Foot Locker weeks (or even months) after release and easily find your size...at a discount, even.

So yeah, I'm skeptical. lol

Nike.com will have them? I thought that usually isn't the case with SB releases. I sure hope so though!

Also, does anyone know how much they'll be?
 
Latest pickups


Air Tech Challenge 2 - so glad to finally have a pair of these again! Agassi was a hero growing up. Best drop this year so far IMO.

Jordan 1 Bred - had to go reseller price. Just had to have it.

Jordan 3 Fire Red - mate sold me his pair (8/10 condition) at a great price. Will use these as my Jordan beaters.
 
If these are a 9.5 or 10, I'm gonna be salty.

Size 9.

O__O holy shit

You bought those socks specifically to wear with these shoes, right? It's too perfect of a match, heh.

Not specifically, but I was surprised to see the socks in my closet. I remember during the NBA All-Star weekend in 2012, NBA store had a bunch of those digital socks on sale, 2 pairs for $8 or something like that. I bought red/black, blue/black, purple/black, and the orange ones above. I actually didn't know they were a perfect match until I took both of them out. :p

6 days remaining.. not sure if i'll bite yet. I have a pair of 373s size 9.5 and they fit perfectly. I have a pair of 574s and they are size 10 and tiny bit tight.. Then my Dad has some 373s in size 10 and they are too big...

Pickups for January (so far):

inuTnL5l.jpg


Nike Stealth Foamposite 1: I went to Sole Supremacy in Newark and traded in a couple pairs of shoes that have been collecting dust in my closet for these. This is actually the first pair of Foams I've ever owned, and now I'm in the hunt for a pair of metallic reds & royals. SoleSup is DEFINITELY worth checking out if you're in the Bay Area.

New Balance 580 x MITA Sneakers x SBTG: Lucked out on Titolo, and they actually arrived in four days (from Switzerland). Impressive, but that's what I better get for $40+ shipping. Been a fan of SBTG since he was customizing dunks on Niketalk, and I'm really happy with this pair.

Foams are awesome. Gonna pick up the Yeezy foams and Supreme foams when they drop, most likely gonna resell the Supreme ones lol.
 
Ooo Lawd, X Denims and AJ 88s. Those are hot, gents.

I literally missed out on all of the X EXTs. So salty.

Great pick up, Markman. I'm thinking of picking up the Powder Blues for my daughter. Going to check that they have infant sizes at the mall today.

For Christmas, I got her the Taxi 12s and those teal/pink 5s (South Beach).

Aside from the OG Foamposite 1s, the stealth and pink are my faves. Great pickup!

What's your height and waist size?

I'm 5'7", waist 30 and go with medium. The fit is perfect for me - not too baggy and doesn't look like girls' leggings, either.

Pretty much the same exact build; guess I'll go with M. Good looks!

Just gotta wait till NTSF and Nike.com restocks; feel like they've been sold out for a while.

It could be the photo but the pink doesn't look as vibrant as the '08 retro.

I regret not quadrupling up now when these were just sitting at stores for $50.
