Nike x OFF-WHITE Collection Thread - Rest In Peace Virgil Abloh

[bigevan23]

Ah so i was the backup backup plan? Ill take it

Yah, i think they got in a little trouble for the back door, so they're trying to be as up front as possible

UPS finally has my ow from undefeated supposed to be here Monday. Undefeated lives to cancel I was getting worried

Hey at least you get to dance, they won't even let me in the club

With all due respect (and I know I'm perhaps grossly late to the discussion, as this collaboration has been out for a while now), but can someone tell me what all the fuss is about on these Off-white x Nike shoes? I know there's some sort of artistic "intentionality" and use of humor going on with the unnecessary zip ties and superfluous labels, but it just seems to me that the shoes probably won't be considered desirable by very many if they were mass produced. Thoughts?

I kind of find Mr. Abloh humorless, but then again, I'm not a design disciple, so what do I know. Whether Virgil is a genius or not, consensus right now is, that he is and since he is making money and a name for himself, maybe he truly is. Part of me is just riding by the wave, but since I already like the Vapormax and own several pairs, I just attempt to get the Off-White version as a novelty pair in my rotation.

They’re just re raffling until they are all gone. I stopped by today it’s their new move.

Yeah, I never win Kith raffles so I was surprised. Would have thought they’d bd all of their stock by now.

these off colored pairs (no pun intended) are overkill IMO. I think they make the overall collection less appealing.

they are mock ups though, so we'll see

Should I sell my 2018 vapormax’s now, or do you guys think prices will rise within the next months?

One of my biggest sneaker related regrets is selling my prestos. Not only do I wish I kept them to rock, but I sold them for $1000 in December and now they’re going for $1300-1500

Sell it now. Price will most likely be lower when the 'Twenty', The 'Thirty', etc.. all come out.

Not worse than selling Turtle Doves for 700 or Travis AF1s for 280.

Watch his Harvard speech.. not the entire thing, its wayy to long imo and he's so dry that its painful..give it 20 min, you'll get the gist of what he's all about... he also talks about his use of "irony" ..

I'll save you the pain of trying to find it..


@37min he talks about the AJ1 and goes through most of The 10 collection...

Every drop, there's going to be someone with 50 posts coming in to post multiple pairs.

Anyway, congrats!

Congrats and go back in your hole is what you meant to say.

At least he posted a picture, still better than random "easy cop 4 pairs". Lol.

Hope everyone that wants to wear can get a pair soon.

So is Kith backdoor closing or just going to be less apparent with these re-raffles?

Hold on to them, I sold the Chicago AJ1 OW for $1200 and well we see the resale price now.
