[jcs11702]

I'm sure the Big-Man-Upstairs wouldn't mind. Although, there is the 10 Commandments for J's you should be aware of

1.Thou shall not resell or become resellers for profit
2. Thou may never use BOTS
3. All J's shall be done as those were done before them
4. Thou ought not keep J's Deadstock
5. Thou must keep J's factory, including laces
6. Sole swapping may only be done by those who have sole
7. He who casts custom paint shall be open for flaming
8. Never use Hypebeast in vain
9. He must not ask what size, what clothes, where to find them, or how others shall wear their shoes as he was made to be a Man, not a Woman
10. Buy J's because of love, not because of hype

#7 = truth

I passed on these cuz I still got my 07 pair in good condition. I'm hearing mixed reviews some say 07>13 some say the new ones better. To those who have both, which is better quality wise all around?? I wanna know

I don't know who is saying that the 2013's are better leather ? They must not have the 07's ! Cause when I went to foot locker yesterday, I had to go through 3 pairs. Not saying the leather isn't good cause its cool. Reminds me of the BC3's, with the gloss finish and all. I went through 3 cause they were all defected in one way or another. I like my 06's better without the gloss. I ended up walking away empty handed and I am not one of those picky picky guys. Believe that, these are also one of my favs. I love the 3. I see alot of your 3 picks showing the "whole family" where are the flips boys ? Didn't see none !

I love those too ! I think those were the only 3's with a leather interior, no regular cloth. Those were crazy. I don't see many of those. I had to do both the black and white colours!

The 07's had decent leather and a really nice fit (for me anyway). But that damn midsole paint was so bad it ruined everything else. The 2013's couldn't possibly be any worse...

That is 100% on point ! No doubt about that bruh !
I always work with a large rotation, so i didn't necessarily kill those. But that's a huge headache on the 07's. honestly that's the only reason I ran out for the 2013's.

I feel you. I hit the casino last night too, but I got worked by the blackjack table ... and the Templeton Rye.
Slept a few hours then went shoe shopping; the perfect way to forget what the casino did to me

haha I been there maan. Black jack is the devil. I actually lost like 900 of black jack at tge beginning of the week(tuesday) Only found myself back at the casino cause my buddy was in a wedding party that had people lodging through out the hotel. Was a bash. Like high school prop after party all over again lol
we'll hit that jack pot one day bro

yeah I've been trying to get a deadstock pair of those for a decent price, I've found some for okay prices but they are chipped up, samething with the cool grey 3 LS I've been on the hunt for them for a while still can't get a decent pair without paint chipping

What are they asking for DS flips ? I honestly have no clue. I remember at that time a couple years ago, the retailer was charging $175.00 for them. They dubbed them "PREMIUM" to charge the extra dinero.

Last night to drink a few IPA's.

$269.00 I seen they were brand new but paint was flaked/cracked

That's dope, that's cheap as hell. Think about it, 175 + tax and shipping. That's already 200-210 retail. I guess no demand for these in the marketplace. Not that I care, mine won't be sold. But still that's crazy !

 

[carolina80db]

Got my flips for $100 a yr after release b4 hype invaded. Love three's their my favorite, but hate mid sole chipping and back tab yellowing, same paint chipping on iv's.

You obviously haven't see a flip up close. Wax laces REAL couch like leather insole and that same plush couch like leather inner cuff(ankle area). Also it was probably more expensive to make the entire shoe elephant print .

 

[deadzone174]

I actually got my flips for free. Flipped them for a 200% profit. Lol.

 

[dnero1]

Still lots left at HoH in Topanga in SoCal.

After how long a release sits untill we are able to use bday coupon?

 

[czar]

That's dope ^^^^^ I feel the same way, those are definitely my top five, both 3's and 4's ! The only thing I heard that can help the midsole is the inserts.

????? What you mean I obviously haven't seen a flip up close ? I just finsihed saying I have both. I have no clue what your saying.

My local HoH lets me use it on release day.

Is it me or are the VIP rewards printed on the bottom of the receipt useless now?

Sole Supremacy has a few Black Flips DS for 229 shipped after free shipping code. That's a decent price I think. 

 

[czar]

Lol I think that's retail ! ^^^^

Damn I just checked for my size, nada.

Black flips were one of the most regrettable purchases I've made with Jay's the past couple of years (along with Wolf Grey V). I didnt need them. dont like them. Waited too long to return them. Really ended up disliking both. Got a couple wears out of the V but no chance I'll wear the black flips.
