Nike x Fear of God Collab - Official Thread (Air Raid F&F IG Shock Drop 10/8 )

Both are very nice. I like the tonal swoosh on the blacks. Love the toe box material, very comfortable. Great quality and a good retail price for them.

Noice.
I really like the contrasting Swoosh on the Light Bone pair, but having the black pair in hand, I'm glad I own the black pair instead even though there is no contrasting Swoosh. It just looks much nicer to me.

That’s the point.

There ISN’T a profit.

20-30 above retail is them losing money (after fees).

My point is that they’re not making money. Stock X is. And that’s the problem. Resellers literally get nothing out of it.

You cant defend their actions with logic or reason, because there is none.

Real resellers buy in bulk under box price. People buying a few pairs of higher volume sneakers being speculative are the ones getting burned, but there aren’t enough of them to make a difference. Stockx is more of a retailer than people believe.

Seeing how these look, I'm kinda glad they stuck with the black on black.

Trying to see these in hand. Post office trying to play games with me...

 

[bigtoe]

Couldn't be happier with these. Quality, comfort, looks...for me they tick all the boxes.

I could believe retailers backdooring pairs to StockX for below retail. But you telling me resellers were buying this shoe that sold out instantly everywhere for below retail?

Your username has never seemed more appropriate.

I don't think that's what he said. I believe he was speaking to the general subject of loads of shoes being sold on StockX at either break-even or a small loss for the sellers. Not specifically FoGs.

Was bored and made these:

Grey with Bone Sole

Grey with White Sole

And since Jerry likes using Grey on Grey for Friends and Family (switched up the Swoosh too):

The user name was created for fun years back.

Yes if you’re a reseller and buy volume of higher volume releases you can buy under box price. Some sizes on stockx are under retail so I’d say it’s highly likely volume was sold by retailers under box price.

You answered your own question by saying retailers back door pairs to stockx. If so why wouldn’t they do the same thing for high volume resellers?

I haven’t checked the volume of these specific FOGs. Most likely low level commercial. So over 100,000 pairs but under 500,000 pairs.

Smaller sizes of these FOGs are still available at retail. They’re now clearing on stockx and other sites under retail. So yes to these FOGs selling under retail.

It wasn’t significantly below retail, but I bought mine for $168 shipped on Antonioli. This pair is for personal use though

 

["RJM_Fit"]

Everyone was right. The quality is exceptionally nice on these. But the presentation is what stood out to me the most. I think I'm more in love with the box than I am the shoes. lol

Read a lot of reviews regarding late shipment, messed up box, or wrong size but didn’t see any regarding fakes. I guess some of us finna find out.

Huh? I bought them earlier today from Kixsquare. Couldn't care less about the rest of it other than ... what did I miss? Someone says they sent fakes?
Anything else wrong with them, whatever. If they send me the wrong size, I don't give a **** about their no returns policy. My CC company will deal with that LOL

[ModernMade]

Hope kix squares comes thru with a clean pair in the size I ordered I guess lmao....I hope my box is a1 too. Such a nice box. Would be a shame.....cc dispute would be the way to go lol. Teach em a lesson.

 

[DsLee]

^^^
Yeah I’ve done some research and the nightmare reviews are ones that say it took a while for shoes to ship out, or didn’t get shipped out so they were refunded via PayPal. Even saw reviews/complaints that started off along the lines of “no doubt their shoes are authentic but...”

For $210 shipped I’m not trippin as long as they’re real haha!

First one is tough!!!!
