Could anyone recommend anything to help with yellowing on the patent toebox area of my OG lower merion homes??? I'll try to upload pics tomorrow

Light unyellowing session with sole sauce of choice should work just fine. Nothing long and definitely not with Vol 50 as its too strong. Id apply and leave on for no longer than 8hrs at a time running multiple sessions if necessary. Follow up with a conditioner between sessions and once finished.

Posted this is the 6 thread too but what to get y’all’s input

I know this is the 6 thread but what y’all think? Seller wants $450 and says slight separation which to me looks like just glue and how my 4’s look but they aren’t separating. Oh and no box

Spoiler: Kobe 4 Protro Black Mamba

Id never pay that for those as for me thats grail territory which especially in that condition are just not it.
Also there is no reason they should already be separating but if theyre really what you want then shoot for it. Another thing to consider is the line is officially back on, the first release was bunk but whose to say what may come in the near future with regards to general availability.

Did Ja Morant really wear fake shoes in a game?

100% fake. not the first time he's done it. he's worn fake kobes a few times now including during media day

 

[urn0tlike]

if he knows, and if he doesn’t know and someone is taking advantage of him **** them.

 

[jkballer5]

Those Preludes are definitely fake. I think there's been a couple others he's worn this season that appeared to be fake. He likely doesn't know and his "plug" is getting duped too or knowingly passing them off to him.

I'd be furious paying resell prices for fakes, but he can afford em. Someone should probably tell him lol. What are the giveaways btw? And also, 47 points in fakes is pretty impressive lol

 

[jkballer5]

The giveaways on this particular pair of 4's are the shorter tongue and the flywire pattern. Fakes have improved over the last couple of years and some even have better cushioning setups. Remember how we all *****ed and moaned about Nike skimping out on the zoom, etc. on the protros? Well these fakes may even feel better than the real ones that have been coming out.

So there's this guy by the name of Max on IG who makes reps. Yall prob came across seeing some of his work as they have a hang tag that says Max. But he states if I'm not mistaken he even adds the tech that Nike doesn't. Still would never get my money

Damn y’all got eagle eyes…making my second question my prelude pick up from 5-6 years ago…

Had to look at mine rn (i havent worn them in a while)

His are definitely fake 100%. He gotta fight his plug immediately

 

[youngpablo]

You would imagine that a dude like Ja that must have any and every plug he can get @ Nike should be good.....sun decides to cop and pay resell for some fakes. Love the guy but he seems to be from the state of fLorida with that nonsense...

 

[nike4kja05]

Hope he get his plug corrected. Still dropped 47 in them though

I thought about this often, especially when Nike retros something and strips away all the tech and charges “inflation” prices on them. I remember wanting some 2k4 huaraches when they were last retro’d. But I heard Nike left out the zoom and couldn’t bring myself to buy them for ball. What’s the point of paying top dollar for “real” kicks if you can buy them for cheaper with “better quality”?Sadly, I saw it coming when Jordan flooded the game with retros with boo boo quality control. You can see the “fakes” catching up with the “real”.

All this being said and Ja drops 40+ in fakes. Doesn’t matter what you wear. Wonder what Nike has to say about this…
