Sold mine too. Once the excitement wore off, realized they were just another trash retro.
Love the shape on these.

Just got my pair in. I was skeptical of these but they’re fire in hands. The changes to the shape makes these incredible

Here we go.
I’m not a customizer, but I figured I would give it a go. Here are the materials I used:
Used a nail file to pin back the tape around the edges/ep:
Some before shots:

Continued:
There are a couple areas you can see where I rushed, but I think it came out well. Most proud of the toebox elephant print section.
Total cost: about $11 USD
Time spent: 2.5 hours
I like.
I respect the effort.
If I may, tips for the future: tape better, multiple thin coats of paint with a good amount of time to dry in between or a heat gun to set them, a third brush for detailing (like the red edges around the eyestay), apply matte finisher.

Got mine today. Also made in Vietnam. More than likely Coronavirus free. They feel like they are made good. I also like the box.
Also a few by my Black Cements
Are these the same size shoes?

Lol....I thought I was the only one who noticed this Or maybe only one who randomly had it like that on my pair. The Size sticker is smacked right on the "nike air" in the insole on my pair. First thought I had was if I were to ever peel off the Size sticker part of that Nike Air will probably come with it. So im assuming everyone's size sticker is on the Nike Air part? It's usually never placed there.

It was directly on both of my logos & it’s usually higher if I’m not mistaken ... took both off & one was clean the other looks like the Nike pics
