Jordan Retro XI 11/11/17

lol..you must be new to the SNKRS app then

Yeah kinda. Been using it for only 2 months. Man, my heart can't take it.

Anybody received shipping emails from Hibbert or Villa? waiting on both

 

[Hahahaha]

I hate when I see people posting shoes that just came out "SITTING", it's the new fad. It's barely been 24 hours and they're not everywhere. See people always doing it in the south.

6 years. Longer if you took precautions

TOTALLY depends on the model.. With XIs you mostly have to worry about sole separation and yellowing of the white nylon upper (if applicable, obviously) in the 6-10 year age, really.

 

[staffsgtdignam]

It’s gonna be way longer than that for them to have that kinda value

Legend Blues are almost 3 years old and resale is barely there (and those were an OG cw). Resale on GR Js seems to be, for the most part, dead.

^ that's not a bad thing unless you're a reseller. Imo, good.

Yup, a lot of people care more about sales then the actual shoes nowadays

Retro 11’s don’t last 24-48 hours here in Houston if that.

Not necessarily, if you need to get rid of old, unworn DS pairs (which I’m sure we all have at least 1 of) it would be nice if they weren’t worth less than what we paid for them. I know I’ve bought shoes in the past that I intended on wearing but never did. That said, I totally agree that “investing” in GR retros is overall not very wise because only a fool wouldn’t see that it is completely a buyers’ market.

It's one thing to have pairs left over that you had intentions to wear, but never got around to, but you want to get rid of, but let's not kid ourselves here. The current climate revolving around sneaker "enthusiasts" involve sitting on pairs in hopes to cash in later on. What you described is not the prevailing thought when it comes to shoes. The situation you described sounds more like a person who lost interest in shoes and has a pair left over, those people usually don't mind losing the money or just give them away altogether. The typical person now buys pairs or multiples to trade for future pairs or resells the extra to offset the cost of the pair that they want to keep for themselves.

If you sit on GRs hoping for a profit you played yourself lol. These navy 11s will be $250 on stock x forever lmao

 

[joseph8764]

If JB really does go back to lowering production numbers and not flooding the absolute **** out of every retro, I’m almost positive the hype will return and GRs will hold a little more resell value.

But for REAL sneaker heads, the mass production was a blessing.

Agreed.

 

[GrizzlyAnimal]

I love how it is right now

 

[joseph8764]

Yup lots of sneaker heads do. But honestly, with these rumors of JB going back to being more limited, I’m not sure how much I believe it because yea Adidas is murdering Nike/jb but eye would assume Nike and JB are more worried about sales and it doesn’t seem like they are lacking revenue lol

Got shipping confirmation from Villa yesterday.

Also Nike shipped couple hours ago.

 

[tacowatch]

[619destroyer858]

They're letting these dumb*** kids dictate their product.

[iceysole12345]

Any size 14’s sitting anywhere or online? I️ made the mistake of thinking these wouldn’t sellout and woke up late as hell Saturday to them being gone everywhere in my area

Might have an extra size 14. Message me Friday if you haven’t found something

 

[KlicKlac]

Are people still waiting for SNKRS to ship their shoe? Still waiting here

 

[GrizzlyAnimal]

You'll probably get it today

 

[アミーゴ]

Nike seems to be most considered with their Organic Growth, something brought up a lot in Q2-3 results.
