I know, the smallest size for the black/gold 1's was 16. I was just hoping that NDC would get them in my size. I can't see my self paying $1400 for them.
quality? 80% of the people who buy them don't give a damn about thatI'm gonna say this, and will take my lumps for it. No way should anyone pay 400+ for Royals. Wore mine yesterday and they are no better quality than my Gucci 1s. The new mold or whatever makes them more comfortable I remember 1s being, but kill that quality leather argument. Quality compared to products JB puts out, yes. Quality compared to leather, no.

I've given up trying to find Royals or BREDs for a price I'd pay ($200 or less). As a matter of fact I just picked up some DS, NIB Gtown 1's and I think I'll be happy with those. Classic kicks that I'd love to have but It's crazy what these are going for nowadays. I literally had an ebay seller offer me a "deal" on some BRED 1's for $350 .
Almost the same but I got the tweet on my phone. Tried to go for breds but I was late. I was able to add Laney's but I didn't end up buying them. Got the Concord lows and Kobe 9's this weekend anyway so that softened the blowTo those that successfully copped from the restock, well done gentlemen, well done.
I was at work and didn't even know about it until I checked my email hours later, but i'm also not really depressed about it. Restock took too long to come and I got over it. The fact I managed to cop the Black Toes on my own anyways (Which would've been the only Jordan 1's I tried to go for) probably helps as well.
200 or less?? Cmon FAM...
YUP! It's restock or bust for me...
That's my rule of thumb for most retros though, with the exception of BRED IV's (grails). Unfortunately (or fortunately) I'm old enough to remember when a lot of these kicks came out. Like I said earlier in the thread...1's hit sale rack for like $60 when the were first introduced. All new release J's used to be $125.00. So, I just can't bring myself to pay double today's prices for kicks that are not nearly as good a quality as they were when they first came out.
Not knocking what anybody chooses to do with their money...I wish I had some of you guys' collection of 1's. For me, $200 is my limit.
