Seeing those pics makes me glad they released the undrake ones.
The purple jumpman is more in the overall theme, but I kinda prefer the gr version.

Outside of my ripping the tape, this is how the box was handled to me when I picked it up from the UPS pickup spot.
And of course my box looks like this on the same side where the nike box was damaged.
Shoes don't look as bad as some pairs I've seen, but quality is still iffy. Going back and forth between returning or just hitting Nike up for a partial refund/discount for the box and for the shoes quality.

Just got my pair and just like everyone else's the quality is terrible. Glue stains and scuffs all over. Honestly they should have B-Stocked these things. My Melo 13's look better than these, even with the red glue stains. More than likely getting returned to Nike, because Stock X probably won't take them.

So the literal only difference is that Drake signature on the tongue? No quality in material difference or anything special? At this point you can tell me they had left over OG release Raptors in the warehouse and replaced the tags and I would believe you, this is so lazy.

I believe these are just an old shipment they had sitting around that never got the tongue converted. The pair that released last year had an over sized tongue patch... I bet if you removed it you would see where the Drake tag was replaced... wouldn't even be surprised if some were just covered up. Also crib posted a pic of Drake wearing these a month ago I just noticed.

But you’ll sack hop on an athlete? It’s the same diff my dude .... jordan striving for exceptionality in his chosen field and an artist like Aubrey attempting to excel in his chosen field. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Got my pair in this morning. Scuffed but no glue stains. Rubbed them with my hand and all the scuffs are gone.

passed on the first release, but managed to grab a pair of the Drake's. Tracking says they are at the UPS hold center. Hoping they are in good condition, or else it's back to Nike they go!

I dont get it though, the Drake signed ones are lower priced than non-signed ones?Looks like sellers are getting desperate on StockX. My size alone is down over $30 all the way to $225. In a week they’ll be starved out and it’ll be time to strike for those who missed out
Everybody hate Drake?
I just received mine. Quality is decent, no glue stains...... no 3-stripes like @cradiulf
You can tell partially the suede is made out of pig suede.
mudguard suede is synthetic suede for sure.
If they are returned and sent to outlet, wore once, glue stains, I'll gladly purchase and unDS right away for $140 tax included.
oh, and ....... I know Warriors are losing but Laney 5s are for $120

SNKRS pair delivered just now. Overall, I like them. Hit them with a few strokes of my suede/nubuck brush and really evened out the swirls and markings. I missed the original drop and while I don't listen to Drake's music (I am neutral on him however, don't really feel one way or another about him) I think the detail of his sig on the tongue is cool and I do like the purple jumpman patch better than the all black suede patch. Grabbed a "forgotten" jersey off ebay right after I opened these up and will post in here once it arrives from Canada. Until then...
