This is my 3rd pair. first was when they came out, and destroyed them i wore them so much. 2nd pair paid $400, deadstock, got 3 or 4 wears out of them. This 3rd pair seems to be doing ok, i have about 10 wears so far. Its 90% luck i think at this point.Originally Posted by jcantanixon

Dang. Jealous. My white/cement 99 4s midsoles disintegrated and came apart- I don't want that to happen to my black 99s, so rocking the ones from the CDP is good enough to me.

The attitude of some people that have these is seriously astounding. I walked into 711 at about 1am just now, and like an idiot, i complimented some thug nasty that was wearing these. He says to me something like, "yeah, get at me, exclusives, what you know about these".
I'm to old to be starting anything with these fools, so i just continued about my business.

I know this spot that hasn't gotten their shipment of concords yet. They tryna say the holiday delay is holding their shipmentJust tell me you're sold out or you ain't getting them. It's simple af.
If you talking bout the store at Cosmo...them dudes is full of %#^*! How they keep saying their shipments hasn't arrive while stores within 1 mile from them already got their re-stocks in? I heard that since their a small store they either sold their pairs to friends and fam or selling it on the bay themselves! I ain't salty...got me some pairs already but my dude that sat there the whole day of 23rd 1st in line for 6-7 hours came up empty handed just to hear the " we didn't get our shipment in " excuse. Real question...is there a way we can report that to Nike if they don't put at least a pair for retail? If they just kept their inventory for themselves so they can make more money than retail? I mean it's kinda shady if it's true.
Some people do not think they can be touched, until it happens to them.Originally Posted by UPPTEMPO8387

terrible story
The Redford Township Police Department was investigating a home invasion that left one man shot over shoes.
Police said two men broke into a home early Friday morning in the 19900 block of Denby Street. One of them was armed with a handgun.
The homeowner, who asked not to be identified, said the men broke into his home and demanded that his 18-year-old son hand over his new Nike Air Jordan shoes which he had received as a Christmas gift.
The suspects fled with a wallet, cash and the Air Jordan shoes.The teen wouldn't give up the shoes without a fight. During the struggle, one of the suspects pulled out the handgun and shot the teen's 19-year-old friend.
The victim was taken to a nearby hospital, treated for his wound and released.
The suspects were both described as black and between 16 and 18 years old. One man was described as 5 feet 8 inches tall, weighing 150 pounds with short hair and wearing a white T-shirt.
The other man was described as 6 feet tall, weighing 160 pounds and wearing a gray jacket with a hood.
Police said a white, full-sized General Motors pickup truck may have been used by the suspects.
The break-in and shooting did not appear to be random, police said. The victim was probably specifically targeted.
Anyone with information on the break-in and subsequent shooting is asked to call the Redford Township Police Department at 313-387-2551.
I would bet my pair of Concords that this guy was on Facebook with pics of a stack of Jays or his Concords surrounded by money..This is why you never flaunt your money/possessions on a social network, whether it's facebook or twitter..If the wrong person sees the type of stuff you have in your house, you better believe they will be coming for it

Cruised up the 405 to work and I check my email and my Eastbay order I placed 2 days ago shipped!! Today is turning out to be a really great day. Now all I need to do is hear from Sole Heaven and I'm set with my 3 pairs!!
Let me get this straight. You ordered 1 pair from Eastbay and another pair from Sole Heaven. Then you proceeded to camp out in the cold for 8 straight hours just to get a 3rd pair? Not knowing if they would even still have your size since you were 100th in line?
Come on man this guy is a cool cat don't knock down a FAM who's actually putting in work to get some...its better than those who keep asking for hand me downs of where's the next restock...geez I don't know him personally but this guy even pm to tell me what's up...now that's a guy who watches out for his SO-CAL heads in here. Appreciate it bro...too bad i was at work...still looking for my first but am happy you got yours...well deserved...Forget the SALTINE CRACKERS in here...this place isn't what it used to be...
In all seriousness though, I was asking cause I was genuinely curious. This "camping out" stuff is new to me, along with people buying multiple pairs that aren't even the size they wear. Perhaps I just haven't been following the "game" or the "scene" lately and this is the way it normally is.I don't know. As long as ya'll are happy with the final result, do you.
I'm old school, I'm used to just walking in the store during business hours and buying 1 pair of the shoe in your size.
Yup. What's the point of posting the same pair of sneakers for 500+ pagesOriginally Posted by sosmoove

one pair. just one pair is all i want.
Bro, dont bother. We like kicks. People from all aspects of life like kicks. Unfortunately a lot of morons like that one you came across likes kicks too. He probably one of the guys from those mall mayhem videos. Uneducated and kicks is probably one a of the few things he lives for.Originally Posted by aphexacid

Never have I experienced where a shoe has caused so much emotion in people.
From happiness, to hate, to bitterness, and yet the shoe is emotionless and sits there waiting to be worn, waiting to be looked at or waiting to worshiped.
I stare at the shoe and it just sits there bringing me closer to its soul to where I first felt the same emotion back in 1978 to where Sneaker Joint was in Washington Heights and to where I finally got my first real pair of sneakers and I look back and for one brief moment in time I say this is why I collect and wear sneakers. It is the most healthiest of all addictions known to man....
