I like the foams more but the Concords are probably worth a little more. I think it's a solid trade.

these go hard

Man after reading this thread I feel almost like a fool, I almost traded mine for a pair of am95 Doernbecher. I just didn't wanna ship first so I decided against it.

Very fair trade! Especially if you have more than one pair of concords...

I also came across pairs that were worn one or three times for 340 and instantly passed.

Same thing happen to me.  I paid 320 for a paid of metatic reds off of ebay and the Penny sign stiching on the back was different sizes and the sole was sloppyly attacted to the shoe and it had many glue strings.  I sent the shoes back and got a full refund.  You gotta be carefull, you can't trust strangers at all!!!!

That would def be in your favor. I think the quality of materials on those 4s are bad.

Ask for authenticity and additional photos. not distant but close up. Check the sole,carbon fiber plate, sometimes the plate tends to stick out, as for the penny logo on the back make sure its centered with the back seam of the shoe and lastly i notice most foams ive encountered have a vertical crack along side the deep curves of the shoe.

These should be called candy red not metallic red. They're not metallic at all.

Yeah, you're theoretically paying $170 for a pair of DS foams (if you got the Cavs at retail).

Do it.

geez, i had buyers remorse at 335.

 

[leounot]

Still think these are trash. I had a chance to cop from NDC on release night but decided against it. Not a fan of this candypaint foam.

Same. For those of you whose first foam cop was the metallic reds and think they are great quality, comfort, etc... They're wild trash

Well if you feel that way. Why are you clicking on this thread? I didnt like them at first, but once i saw a pic of spike lee wearing the metallic foams my opinion changed slightly. When i saw them in person i had to secure my pair.

At least throw an imo in your post, your opinion is not law.

These are far from trash, one of the best releases in years and will be a future classic ''imo''......and i own almost every 1/pro.

 

[infernoheat2005]

The cheapest i than seen them around was for about $375

 

[putting in work]

Man I haven't seen any pair in 11.5 for under $400-450

Where the hell you guys finding these deals from?

I'm talking deadstock only!

I just never felt the teals, some pics looked alright but when I saw in person just couldnt pull the trigger...

 

[emier2]

electronic blue proms are probably my favorite foams...the metallic red being second

 

[mjpaftermath04]

I had been waiting for red foams to drop for years. Red is my favorite color though so my opinion is biased
