Yeah that was pretty random if you ask me. I'm glad nobody confronted those guys because the overall tone in here is friendly and informational. Let's not turn into the JB thread. I love this thread.

No confronting, only semi-confronting... Admittedly, I have posted a few off-topic comments, and I apologize for that. I understand this is supposed to be an SB Dunk thread, and I'll be more respectful of that in the future. As far as asking non-SB related questions, I felt, rightly so, that my questions would be answered quickly and in a respectful way if I posted in here. But still, I get it, and will cool out with the off-topic stuff. Sorry guys!Yeah that was pretty random if you ask me. I'm glad nobody confronted those guys because the overall tone in here is friendly and informational. Let's not turn into the JB thread. I love this thread.
On another note, I just bought these joints from a guy off eBay for $90 shipped. What do u guys think? Should I have asked for a lower price? As I mentioned earlier, I'm just now getting back in to the SB Dunk "game", and am not as knowledgeable on the value-side of things, at least not as much as with Retro Js.
I should've came here first and asked you guys, not sure what I was thinking... Also, was able to score another size 11 in the McRads for $110 before shipping from Fishbone Apparel. Such a dope shoe... Well, I haven't ordered them yet, but the sales clerk put 'em on hold until they are able to do phone orders on Monday. She said she wasn't able to do phone orders because she didn't know how much to charge for shipping, and the guy who knows that stuff will be in on Monday. So, if you guys are trying to do phone orders with Fishbone and they say they can't do phone orders til Monday, make sure to ask them to hold the pair for you, which they shouldn't have a problem doing. Maybe the girl who I spoke with just doesn't know what she's talking about, and someone else will be able to place the order for you today. I was hoping to be able to score a pair of When Pigs Fly at retail, but there was only a 7.5 left. They had said on their Instagram that they had sold out of the 10.5, but I still wanted to try, in case they might've missed a pair somewhere... so mad I missed that shoe, again, at retail... congrats to anyone else who might've scored a pair.

What kind of material is that on the back of the Birch's? Like a ripstop/nylon type material? I had no idea the Birch's were that fuzzy nubuck-type material until seeing those Primitive pics... pretty dope...

It was. I still bump money,cash,****Hahaha damn near choked from laughter fam! If it's not one shoe, it's another. Thank god my Charcoals came. My eBay cop came as well along with Sequoias and the outlet Deep Royals. Pickup pics tomorrow I promise.
Sounds like we have similar taste my dude! That Styles album was a banger. I honestly didn't see him dropping that caliber of material on a solo joint even though I've always been a LOX fan. One thing to do it as a group, another thing to drop what to me is a classic LP. Just a shame it never got the promo it deserved.
I had to stop myself earlier as I knew I would've kept naming album after album. Nas > Jay to me so it took me a while to give Blueprint love, lol. I think Hard Knock Life Vol. 2 is slept on tho. Probably the Jay album I listen to the most nowadays.
What's sad about that Styles album was there were a few songs on there I definitely could've seen having legs on the radio, but I think Jada was popping off so heavily at that time, Styles kinda got pushed to the back-burner. I was always a LOX fan (even bigger Jada fan), but that album really made me see Styles as more than a Tito to Jada's MJ. Jay's Vol. 2 is a great album, but it's probably one of my least favorites. I don't know, I go through phases; sometimes I like listening to his pre-Dynasty stuff, other times it's the stuff after that. Right now, I'm more into his post-Blueprint stuff, but I still love the older stuff too. I think Vol. 3 was the one that was slept on... Production wise, that album was SERIOUS (Dr. Dre executive produced the whole album, which probably had something to do with the fact it sounded so great and had a cohesive feel to it), and lyrically, u know what to expect from Jay. That album has one of my favorite Jay-Z songs of all-time, "There's Been a Murder". That song, in every facet, is just too much. That beat is bananas... And lyrically, Jay is on some other ****. That's one of the few songs I'd play for someone if I wanted to show them how lyrical he truly is. When I first started listening to hip-hop heavily, I was about as anti-Jay-Z as you could get; anything that was about "flossing" or what I considered "mainstream", I wasn't trying to hear it at all. Up to that point, the only Jay-Z song I had really heard, and liked, was "Ain't No *****" from the Nutty Professor soundtrack (I think that was what it was on), and that was when I was in grade school (I got into hip hop EARLY - "White Lines" playing in my Aunt's tape deck when in the 2nd grade is my first memory of hearing a rap song and thinking "what is THAT???"), at a time where I could recite all the lyrics to my favorite rap songs, but had zero idea what they were even saying... lol. But one day, my older brother suggested I listen to Reasonable Doubt, so I gave it a chance; after giving it a spin, it was over. That whole situation actually really taught me a lot about life, in that it taught me not to hate on things or judge things before giving it a chance. I was still young when I first heard Reasonable Doubt (15, I think), but that was kinda one of the first steps to me becoming a self-aware man. Music is deep, man... lol. But yeah, after hearing that album, it was a wrap from there. When Hov and Nas finally clashed, it was a sad, sad day... It sucks they waited so long to squash it; both are still ill, but all the songs they've done together since then haven't been as amazing as I hoped it would be. Imho, they both have fallen off a tiny bit lyrically, and it would've been amazing if they could've worked together in their prime's... That being said, even after falling off a tiny bit, they're still both iller than 99% of what's out there. But to hardcore fans, u notice that 1% difference. Or at least I do. Maybe some will disagree. Even Eminem has fallen off a bit, imo. People thought he was so ill on Recovery, but to me, it sounded like he was trying a little too hard with his multis... Compare that to "Encore" 'Em; while that album had some ridiculous cuts on there (Big Weenie, *** Like That, etc.), when he was blacking out, he was BLACKING OUT, with that fluid, out of control-but-dialed-in flow, and the crazy metaphors and schemes. That's an under-appreciated album, to me at least. Still, it's the same with Em as with Nas and Hov; his almost-best is better than everyone else's best. Ok, it's happening again... Must...stop...typing... lol. Yeah, we do seem to have similar tastes in music. Great minds think alike! PeaceHahaha damn near choked from laughter fam! If it's not one shoe, it's another. Thank god my Charcoals came. My eBay cop came as well along with Sequoias and the outlet Deep Royals. Pickup pics tomorrow I promise.

i heard the easters fit tighter than the other kb8s, however the kb8 fits like the kb6. i recommend you do break in your bball shoes because most insoles do depress and leave more room for your foot. if they're unbearable, go up .5 or a whole size
