Aquas are cool, i wouldnt mind a pair just to beat up
The recent release was just ok, idk, i had the ‘03 pair and remember all the details/feel
These recent releases feel more hollow, the grey is too light, doesn’t feel the same

Y'all were talking about stockx quality control a couple pages back. I just sold a pair of mars 4s from 2006. DS but there's this weird creasing from sitting in the box for so long. Like there was something pressing on the medial side for so long that it wrinkled almost. If it goes thru then stockx really does let stuff go thru without really checking. It's a perfectly unworn pair of shoes and considered DS, not B grades, but I guess it somehow got messed up due to age. Tbh it's been under a ton of boxes for so long that I forgot I even had them lol. Just sold em because I don't trust the age. Hopefully they consider that it's a 12 year old shoe and pays me lol. I don't think the buyer will mind considering it was a good price.

I've been using my BC3s as my everyday errand shoes and after just a 10 minute drive, I get scratches all over my right shoe inner midsole from changing pedals. The white paint is starting to chip off.
The easy option would be just to use another pair for driving shoes, but what do ya'll do when driving with your Js? Maybe I can put a cover on the pedals to stop them from scratching my shoes.

Ankle issue?

That's part of the issue. I do have flat feet so I may have a pronation problem where the ankle turns inwards.
I just gotta be more aware of this problem, as I scuff every single shoe I wear while driving.

Chip isn't the right word, as it's nothing bad at the moment, but I noticed little spots of grey where the paint came off. And the midsole in this high contact area is rough like sandpaper from the scratching, but smooth around the rest of the shoe.
It's not noticeable, but I'm afraid if I don't stop this, the midsole paint will get bad down the line.

Man .finally got em but snowing for the next 2 days. Funny enough I got the black cement spizikes 1 month ago to hold me over so can wear them. I still have an original pair from 2005 as well as teal turfs from 1993. Pics soon

Kind of in a wack position:
11.5 is too big heel slippage) but an 11 is a tad snug.
Going to rock with the 11 and hope there’s some give over time.

Would lacing it up to the top holes reduce the heel slipping?

11 will loosen up with wear. You’ll be good IMO

I typically don’t even re-lace my Jordan’s.
They way the come out the box is usually the way they stay (laziness).

Lmao... So stockx didn't take my mars 4s that had some creasing on the medial side. They didn't charge me the 15% tho. At least they have some type of integrity.

Yeah yeah I know it's fine lol I'm just try to work on preventative care here. Treat my shoes like my babies! My actual concern is if the paint can still hold like this 6 months later as it's already started to speckle.
It's good to plan in advance and make sure you avoid future problems lol
