Quick question.

I was thinking about going to HOH and see if they would be able to locate a pair of kobe 10 elite highs. They don't have these in stock at the store I'm going to but I'm pretty sure they can find a pair because they are available online. Would they give it to you for the lowest in store price. I saw the elite purple highs for 119.99 awhile back and wouldn't mind trying to scoop for that price. I would imagine the stores that have them aren't selling them for very much.

they call these the "Letter", with an homage to Oscar Schmidt

"a design inspired by Brazilian art and architecture." How??

Who would look at this shoe and think "Yep, that looks like Brazilian art and architecture to me."

you'd get the price from the store that they are getting the shoes from. Sometimes they'll try to ring you up as retail price. If you're lucky, the store that you are placing the order from might give you a price match with their store.

So do we know what's the meaning behind 96-03 on the heel?

It's 8 months late, but I've finally picked up the Achilles Heel.

Man, what happened Nike? The first 3 GRs including the AS and BHM have been

The last few are

 

[dafilman]

Hopefully the line picks back up the latter half of the year.  I started off hot out the gate picking up the achilles and bhm and haven't bought a pair since.  Although I have been eyeing the Bruce Lee's

 

[superstarlord]

I don't mind the drop-off, been saving some money by passing on the recent releases, I think the last pair I bought were the Parkers.

 

[aron710]

I said I would get at least 5 pairs of the 11s.

Right now I have 8
Achilles Heel, Eulogy, Bruce Lee x2, FTB, FTB iDs x2, Tinker

Can't help myself.

I knew I'd be all-in for the most part, I think I can cap it at 15 (2nd pair of BHM not pictured) 

 

[dafilman]

I wish I had two more pairs the FTB 9's and 11. 

 

[mastralf]

I never thought I would go in on a model like I have but this is what I'm rolling with

2x Achilles
2x ASG
2x BHM
2x Eulogy
2x Bruce Lee
2x Easter
1x Tinker
1x Last Emperor
1x ID

Right now I'm at 8 pairs myself... Was doing fine until I decided to try on a pair of boosts... Ive always been team Nike but the boost line is killing my wallet at the moment.. Easily the most comfortable pair of casuals Ive purchased. If you havent tried on a pair I really wouldnt let the Nike bias stop you... I never thought I would be saying this!!

Haha yea I got a handful of boosts as well. No shame

 

[mkorofi]

In my opinion, There is no point whatsoever being biased or loyal to a brand that doesn't give you anything back.

Nike vs Adidas, PS4 vs Xbox, Blah blah blah vs Etc.. None of these brands ever give you anything for your 'loyalty'.

If you like the kicks, and you got the funds, it would be a shame not to get them just cos you're used to a rival brand. a damn shame.

Life's too short.

I would have to agree with you... Not gonna lie tho, when Kobe threw Nick Young's Adidas in the trash I felt some traitor-like vibes in myself... I just keep telling myself Brandon Ingram signing with Adidas makes things right for my boost purchases haha

I just stuck with Nike because there's no sales tax and free shipping to Hawai‘i. Not to mention that NDC now has clearance sales online now and then, oh and they have Hurley stuff to
