This site will hate on absolutely beautiful shoes like Gold Toes or Blue Chills because “patent leather bad,” but will drool over excruciatingly boring shoes like neutral grays because “OG means great.” I suggest buying, wearing, and enjoying what you like.
Thank you.
 
i dont want to go back to 2012-2015 quality lol. just want to be able to get shoes without stressing lol i did do really well during the remastered era though which was 2016-2018. on the adidas side though i got my a** kicked. i remember winning SBB 1.0s and treating them as a consolation prize because i couldn't get the turtle doves. got them both now :pimp:

2012 wasn’t a cakewalk though.. 2011 Concord release (and the recent Galaxy foam release of that era) created newfound resell hype for kicks (along with the 2012 Air Yeezy 2 release, to a lesser extent) hence the NDC Twitter RSVP mess.. 2013 88 3s and 2013 Royals were a MESS of a release.

I think the golden era was late 2016 where Black Toe 1s were reselling for ~$200 and I picked up Storm Blue 1s on disco for ~$133 where they were on sale in a full FSR around Christmastime. Hell, even SBB 2.0s could’ve been had for around ~$300 resell back then. 1s hype was present but NOWHERE near where it is now. I regret not doubling up on SBB 2.0s back then, even at resell.
 
My bid for $201 was accepted, I love gooooold 🤣🤣🤣

Just saw this in a reel on IG. Based on the information, I’m thinking that the look of these Trophy Room 1s might be to give them a “frosty” or “frozen” look, in homage to this alleged “Freeze Out” of MJ during his first All Star game. Every time we’re given these narratives, I’m always wondering how legit they are. Anyways, still doesn’t fix that the treatment on these looks bad IMO, along with some of the other details.

I can't bring myself to care about these since I have no shot. Just reretro OG Chicagos already.
 
ah word thought you were a strict 9....so whichever is cheaper, that's how i would do it too :lol:
Hell yeah bro 🤣, I also plan to wear them with with a crease protector inside so that 9.5 is perfect on patent leather 1s for me as far as sizing goes pre.
