my favorite article on this subject. Helped me understand why the 991 is the “oldest” I can go from a comfort standpoint.

Hit on green, which was the only one I wanted. One entry on the normal raffle. Had a feeling these would be a massive GR — hope no one here bought to resell 😬
Prices on stockx are plummeting -- is this everyone immediately trying to flip their W's? Will they drop even more next week when online orders get delivered?
FYI--asking cuz I want to cop, not sell
Bred 1s
WC IVs
SJ XIs
BM Vs
Wool 12s (12s are great in fall/winter, and the wool made them better)
Most disappointing: glue game 12s and toilet bowl 3s (purely subjective -- my pairs for both of these were terrible and returned)
If it's run by a non-profit (such as MJFs charity) with all donations reported then it's not gambling. raffle tickets can be high $ and limited to keep donations simple to track/report.
This is great info. Sorry if this is a silly question, but how much wear could one expect to get out of Jordan 1s that have been DS for 15 years? Is the leather prone to chipping, or are there any other concerns?
