Remember when people were selling linens (kith version) on StockX and Goat for $250-$300?
Seems like an incredible steal compared to today’s prices.

That was 2016. My wife was pregnant. We both entered for Kith Miami. Emails went out at like 10pm, she won. Had to be in Miami between 8-9am the next morning. Crashed, got a few hours sleep, left Jax at 3am with a 5 hour drive. When they were only going for $250, I was mad I'd wasted the time and wish I'd just copped resell. Now all these years later, I'm glad I went. It's a trip we still laugh about now. She's a good one. I'll never let that pair go.

Yea missed the boat on those prices
But it’s all good. I was able to still get a pair even though I paid double the resale prices back then.

I caught Kith Linens around the 220 mark as well. I remember being surprised they were so reasonable on the aftermarket.

DSM legit.
They have also collaborated with many brands including Nike for years. They’ve done AF1s, AJ1s, AM1s, dunks, etc…

Nike Adds Reflective Swooshes To This Grayscale Air Force 1
Reflective details are par for the course with Nike, appearing across many a different release. Even this kids’ Air Force 1 — which plays around with the model’s usual construction — will be following suit. What it lacks in color this Air Force 1 more than makes up in texture and material...

Nah the way that ronnie gentrified that linen release and made it seem like he was the only one in the world that liked them and deserved to have them back was egregious. One of my many strikes against him. Not to mention the bold faced lies about 1:1 replica of the original 
Straight from kith's site:
"To do this, they are rewinding the clock to take fans back to a time where certain models were only available in one place at one time, and were released as regional exclusives. Although today these types of releases are almost unheard of, 15 years ago they were completely normal. To restore this lost art, Kith Miami will be launching the Nike Air Force 1 Linen as a global exclusive for its store opening during Basel. The Nike Air Force 1 Linen originally released as a regional exclusive in Japan in 2001 as part of Nike’s “Concept Japan” collection, and has not been released since. Now, Nike has brought back this iconic model as a 1-to-1 replica of its original, featuring a narrowed shape with incredibly premium leather and a neoprene liner. With a palette that perfectly combines South Beach's natural hues, the Linen will now be revived stateside and solely offered in-store at the all-new Kith Miami."

I'm confused, what did he say that was not true other than 1:1? The og was released only in Japan and the new one was only at Kith stores. I don't see anything about him being the only one that liked them?Nah the way that ronnie gentrified that linen release and made it seem like he was the only one in the world that liked them and deserved to have them back was egregious.

I said "made it seem like he was the only one..." because he intentionally made it limited to his store in one city because of how important exclusivity was to him. Limited to one store does not even equate to availability in an entire country. The equivalent of that would be USA exclusive. "To restore this lost art..." is even more asinine because nike/JB never stopped doing regional exclusives, not to mention the fact that it's not an "art" 
"These types of releases are unheard of..." is bogus as hell. There were plenty of regional exclusives, still are. Ronnie Fieg ****ing sucks. Kith sucks. The 2016 linen release sucks. Glad you had a good trip with your wife though.
If you're like to hear more on why Ronnie sucks, see my novel from the new balance thread earlier this year: https://niketalk.com/threads/offici...-on-first-page.158096/page-5215#post-36186555
