What are you guys trying to cop this Feb?

I'm thinking White and Infrared 6's and maybe KD VI ASG, but I'm sure both will be difficult to get. I'd probably settle for one of the two.

Missed out on the Lebrons and KDs. I can see myself trying to pick the Lebrons later.

I'm after the ASG signatures, infrared 6s, Kobe 9 Masterpiece and X Powder Blue.

loving the colorways of all those BHM releases, not sure what the availability here in australia is (we got a small number of units last year tho) but lebrons and dunk lows easily the stand outs for me..

I feel like a idiot, I didn't know that the bred 11s were getting a restock and bought them for $300 on the 31st.

Anyone else really digging the kobe elite 9s? those shoes are fire to me.

It was a small Restock. And the servers went down 10mins before release time so unless you had a bot or some other method, it was nearly impossible. Verylimited sizes anyway from what i hear.

The volt and white elites look amazing. Not sure what clothes to wear with it but i'm sure I can make it work haha.

Saw the the white OVO 12s in person. my god, they are BEAUTIFUL. I want one, but it looks like JB is trying to make it the next yeezys meaning most of us won't be able to get it.

Just been a torrid 5 weeks in terms of pickups. I finally landed the pair that's been eluding me for 2 years: KD IV ASG Galaxy. I picked them up used, but I don't think the previous owner ever stepped foot outside of his house because the soles were completely clean:

Looking for a pair of Rogues to complete my collection. Leo Chang absolutely killed these!

The Kobe 9 is already undergoing Nike shenanigans. 2 super duper quick strikes last week. Another QS on the level of the Kobe Preludes.

At least they started the Lebrons right with a GR. There were only 3 limited pairs (Forging Iron, X-Mas and BHM).

Guess I should get ready for the All Star week.

These just came in from the UK last night. I paid UK retail, so including ship it was ~160 usd.

Im really loving them, rope laces really good. Cant wait for the snow to go away so I can wear em.

Speaking of snow, my University cancelled classes monday and now again today. More snow expected this weekend, not sure how thatll affect the Tiffany release here in NY. Gonna stay on watch for the RSVP tomorrow on NikeNYC. If that doesnt work Ill be up early Saturday lining up at Supreme or Blades. Hope all of us get lucky, I know online theres no hope.

Ah so they're not out yet. Figures.

Thanks for the help. I'm subscribed to the thread and while I like a lot of the stuff posted here, these are the first shoes to actually compel me to go out and find them.

Anybody have experience with refurbished shoes? Got my eye on a pair of black cement 3s. Seller has good feedback. I dont wanna get shafted and get a pair of fakes.

I've copped used pairs before; 3's hold up pretty well and the 3 that you want happens to be the BEST shoe of all time imo. If they have good feedback and tagged pics, I'd go for it.

I buy used all the time on eBay. You can always do a legit check at shoe forums like niketalk. I don't recommend solecollector, that forum is dead. Also, if the shoe arrives in a condition not mentioned by the seller, you can always ask for a partial refund or return them. Even though the seller may say no refunds, eBay backs the buyer if the seller wasn't 100% accurate with the description.

And black cement 3s are awesome. I wear them almost every week to work and they are holding up so well. Well, I did repaint the midsole because of paint cracking but that's common.

Local shops are a no-go for me on the Tiffs. People lined up already plus it's cold out here in Seattle - not worth it. Online or bust for me.

Any sites to look out for?

not even a second after I hit the link the kobe's are sold out, fucking goddamn.

Clicked the link on the millisecond NDC tweeted the link. Site went down for a second when I was doing my PayPal checkout, luckily a refresh did the trick.

Curious why they're releasing the 9's in such limited quantities though. These aren't Jordan Retros.

I hope the rest of the 9 release dates aren't so limited, I really want a pair but I'm not spending more than retail.

Got lucky and got a pair of the Diamond Dunk His on SPoT and NDC. Time for a short nap.

Lucky, I had a pair at checkout at SPoT but I guess I couldn't put my CC info in fast enough and lost it. Was trying with CCS, kept getting error after error for the past hour :\
