Copping the flyknit BHM for the culture :smokin
Same here, gotta do it for the culture...:smokin
I've been going back and forth with this same sentiment. I'm not really a fan of the flyknit 1's in general, but part of me wants to get them for BHM purposes. God I wish they were just regular ol' leather, as then they'd be a no brainer. Decisions, decisions.
 
The more pics of the game royals I see the more they're starting to look like the rare airs. Gonna pass on those and start saving up for frags. With all the nonsense CWs coming up this year it shouldn't be too hard to save

I have to say I am a the biggest sucker when it comes to the jordan 1. Also love the Jordan 4. I think I am now going to cop the Jordan 1 and Jordan 4 for now on... after seeing my top 3 I am officially done with every other silhouette

Both look dope I love my rare airs I see your post but you will know the difference the second you walk in them
 
I have a plan to give the "Un-frags" a white tongue repainting the tongue tag and making frags from the other pair and making black tongue black toes.

Frags- $2000

Blue chicagos + angelus black paint - $165

Just sayin'

It's at the point where I'd respect someone for not wasting their hard earned money and customizing them instead over someone walking around on two stacks. I get it but still. Jordan is lobbing you an oop here doing everything short of putting it in himself. The blue is spot on and the bolts aren't that cool anyway. Plus you'd care way less if you messed these up.

Like I said though, I totally get it.
 
I will be copping the blues for sure but man... the blue panels look like they are that cardboard leather.
 
Blue Chis are like the materials used in 2013-15 while Red Toes is that tumbled stuff they were putting out the last couple years.

I was thinking about getting the game royals to do a frag custom but then I realized I don't have a single artistic gene in me so chances are I'll screw it up and end up frustrated with a useless kick...


At this point in my life I think I'm too old to wear customs that are knock offs of the real deal. I wouldn't mind wearing something like bred color blocking with green instead, but I just can't see myself rocking sbb or frag customs. But that's just me, if you can make a nice looking one then more power to you

Blue Chi's will probably be like the metallic navy quality wise or the Chicago's. It won't be like your average mix or a 14-13 pair.
 
I would never pay 2 racks for a shoe. Take away the stape on the heel and they look like the rare airs

Feel the same way. I want to paint the toe piece black and make Frags, and it almost feels like Nike is setting us up to do so by giving us the black tongue, but I do feel a bit weird replicating existing CWs. Especially one as popular as the Frament 1s. I might try to paint something on the blue part on the heel as well so it’s not as if I just made bootleg Frags.
