DEFINITELY didn't realize how limited the rest of the pack was going to be. I managed to get a pair of Fontay's, but not my size...wamp wamp. I'll probably sell them because they're not close to my actual size and trying to trade them for my size seems like a long shot.
One thing I did notice is that the fontays look white in every pic that I saw of them. They even look white when I got them in my hand. I had to actually put them next to a piece of white paper to realize that they're definitely NOT white. I like them less now...
Also, dude that posted the pics of the whole pack...those Motorboat Jones...is that two different reds???!

More like 3 shades of red lmao. It gets darker as you go down.

I'd say around $200-230, max $250.
Right now, prices will be sky high because they just released.
Wait it out, a few weeks, maybe a month later, prices will decrease.
As long as you don't mind waiting.
Perfect example, DW 1s after they initially released, were well over the $300 range.
Now you can find a DS pair under $200.
Have patience young grasshopper.

You know, you are absolutely right. In the case of the Concords, when they first dropped, January to maybe April, they were up to $400+. Now you can find DS $280 & less. Patience is the key..
 
thanks for posting the logo's ...the more & more pic's i see im glad i passed on the montanas.... the others look ok but im passing on those also..... I have zero idea why the motorboats have 3 different shades of red...... did they not catch that or is it honestly supposed to be like that

BUT i expect to see all 6 on the hardwood because they all match someones colors... prbly see lil nate in the motors for my bulls

edit guess im late

Nate's shoe game has been better than his basketball game from what I've seen so far. But still fun seeing another Bull rocking Jordan retros for the team MJ did the same with OGs. I remember Rip wore the cement 4s and the black flip 3s last season. So far this pre season I've seen Nate wear the the Last Shot 14s and either the black red or black infrared 6s. What he wore in the first game is slipping my mind at the moment.
 
The designer of the motorboats should be fired for thinking 3 shades of red on 1 shoe would look good.... :x
 
Glad I got that cleared up. Money saved. I was falling all over initial pictures but once I started to see the different shades of red showing I was like :x
 
That completely one shade of red edit Motorboat is a winner. Agree with everyone, they should have released like that.

With regards to looks can be deceiving, like I was saying earlier, tell me that Deep Royal doesn't look like straight up Laker purple!

Yeah, it really is a shame they messed up the color blocking on the Motorboats. They would have been my new indoor shoes. Oh well, saves me money.
 
It's really not that bad actually imo of at least. I didn't like the Motorboat's initially but I do now. The shoe really pops.
 
As i mentioned earlier i was going to look at the shoe when i got home. The sole is darkest of the reds, then the midsole, and then the upper is the lightest.
 
man didnt like the montanas at first, then they grew on me and now that i have them i like them even more
