@BRSantana That shoe karma came back around luckily.
I agree with you on that, I sold a bunch of pairs I bought compulsively that just collected dust. I'm just more focused on building my collection of 1's now. What's RD by the way?
Release day..
Yaw really need to follow kicksdeals, thanks to their tweet, I scooped up a white Lance Mountain SB pair in my size this AM... I was unable to scoop a black pair though...

And @davinci I def had the same issue where the kicks didn't stay in cart for long... I had to re-add to cart after I was unable to get through the first time.. It def caught me off guard... Glad you cooked fam!

Was glad to just check out ASAP...

Been wanting the white pair for FOREVER...

Now I don't feel as bad having to look for a black pair at resale...

Glad many NTers got thru!
Congrats bro!

good stuff B
 
unless i want to make a shoe a beater it never becomes one so multiples are never needed IMO especially with 1s since they are tanks and look better distressed than DS anyways
Easier said than done. I rocked my shadows nearly every day for 6 months because really enjoy wearing them and the sole is pretty beat. I can see myself breaking out the backup within a couple of years. I'd would have rather bought at retail than paying market in the future.

. They're terrible at updating stock availability.

that sucks but it's probably a blessing in disguise as they can be found for less than what they sell for at jmsneakers.

Saw a tweet at 6:55am est and apparently was too late cause they were in everybody else's cart. Worse was that I was awake at 5:30. Oh well maybe another time.

There was one day where they sent out like 20 tweets on gs, womens, and gr shoes and it got too annoying

That's a perfect time to double up when you are rocking something daily. I haven't worn out a pair of kicks in years due to rotation and the fact that I drive everywhere these days LOL
 
My boy has a pretty decent J collection..but he doesn't like 1s..I think that is so weird..lol
 
might not get the royals i was talking about few pages ago.

now got me on the hunt for another pair :x :{ i dont even wanna spend money :lol

SMH
 
dont bring up Banneds man. i wish i could find a DS size 11 for $600 :{ thats the most ill spend on a pair of kicks and would fork it over instantly. I NEED THEM
 
That's my size too. I am actually buying a pair right now, but there a 12[emoji]128546[/emoji]. I know they are gonna be too big for me, but I am getting them for what I consider to be a steal. $450 and they are deadstock

they are going to be huge on you. I bought a 12 a while ago and I wear an 11.5. I thought I could make it work but they were just too big and I had to sell them.
 
Yea, I realize that. I am going to try to do a size swap or just keep them.
it will be extremely difficult, if even possible at all, to size swap them imo. I tried for several months and went to several events to swap and couldn't even find someone with my size, let alone agree to a swap.

My advice would be to wait for your Tts to show up. It's a lot to spend on a shoe you will be swimming in.
 
I agree, dont think you will find a size swap especially in royals.

id say pass on the deal unless you know someone looking for a 12 and flip em for a little more cash.

My first Royal was a sz 10 and I quickly found out I needed a 9.5. I held onto the pair for about a year hoping that I could do a size swap. Never happened... The good news is that the sz 10 protected me from market price increases. As soon as I found a legit pair of 9.5s at a local convention, I bought them and sold the 10s the same day for the same price. With the low supply of legit 11s, it is probably going to be a while before you find a pair. On top of that, prices have skyrocketed lately and will continue to inch up monthly. Therefore I myself would prob do the deal. I think it is low risk, especially knowing that the price is already under what the market is asking.
