[twinsnyc]

Anyone going to wear this garbage? O:xr most bought it to try to resell?

I might cop a size 12 in these to wear to a party on Saturday then sell them for retail...

An elephant party?

Did you grab your pair ? I saw you looking on twitter.

They should've used these laces for the Fear 5s

so how long did these last on NDC?

 

[rhinosport]

Best part of the shoe is the box

And also the laces.

so how long did these last on NDC?

They tweeted the sold out message about 20 mins after. But I think they were in everyone's cart and checked out within 2-3 mins, per the usual NDC release. I added a pair to my cart and got it in my cart within seconds. No waiting in line. Although I did see some post of people waiting for 5-10 mins.

Dont forget shipping fees, most likely 90 dollar profit IF you can sell at 400. Not worth the tie.

Agreed, but others it's easy money. I just wish those who say they're only copping for trade bait or resell would look at the bigger picture rather than short term gains. Everytime you do that you prevent somebody who really wants them. And when it comes time for you to cop a release you actually want for yourself, there's somebody out their with your trade/resell mentality. We're all just making the sneaker game more expensive for ourselves and Nike is watching and they will raise their box prices too to get a bigger piece of the pie.

Numbers from this morning. Most HoH had 15-17 pairs of 3lab5. most Niketowns 24-36 . Not sure about the other stores but guessing 2 FSR. SOUNDS ABOUT RIGHT

 

[airron]

I was 5th inline at my local house of hoops and they were already out of sizes 8-9, and 11.5.

I'm good! Called around spots in the city and had my bro scoop me up a pair yesssss!! [emoji]128526[/emoji] my salt levels was quite high till now... Back to gta v lol

Even less than 90. Don't forget buying the box to ship them in plus transportation/gas to and from the post office/ups store. Shoes are really only worth reselling if your making 100 or more after all expenses are accounted for. And it's more than 2 hours time when u factor in everything. But people don't look at it that way. They just like to cop and resell. Doesn't matter a lot of the time how much profit they make on certain kicks as long as they get back what the paid for outta pocket. For some its a hobby, for some they really need the money. Once again only worth the time and effort if making back 100+ Profit after expenses

I def agree with both of you, but if I can buy for 225 and trade for some fear 5s, wouldn't u rather go that route instead of coming out of pocket 400+?

I really don't know why people feel it is an art to get limited kicks online. Even with bots, its still luck. Especially since orders are getting sniped and recall in mid transition. Tried to go for pair #2, but no go. Trust me. I have been collecting for years. Yes, this shoe is ugly. But, I GUARANTEE just as all ugly Jordan's like grapes, carmines, olives and even the concords when they first came out received the same ugly and whack Comments....how are they received now? This shoe will go down as an elite down the road.

What are you talking about?

Are you even old enough to comment on grapes, olives, concords and carmines when they first came out?

Why are you even comparing those to these in the first place. You went way too far in trying to defend your purchase. Just say you like them, and end it there. You sounded stupid trying to compare these to concords or grapes. You think if these were to release as a GR in a few years people would be lined up for them?

Go down as elite, from hypebeast who thinks a sneaker being limited makes it look good and boost up their self esteem.
