Man, really hoping for an easy hit on the rose water but not holding my breath, resellers/botters have been hungry.

Also hilarious Top Dog Law reference, thought that was just here in Chicago!

What’s a fair price these days for the beef broccoli ALD 993s?.

I would say anywhere between $180-220?

Still need the taupe pair.

I've received a few DMs asking about rosewater bronsons on Friday, I will be 1000% honest with y'all, the bot landscape has changed dramatically since last year when bronson dropped the v6's, it's crazy because when the v6's dropped (first colorway) I couldn't get anyone to run for, i think only 4 people asked me and I hit for all 4. Same with the blue colorway, not many people asked me to run and those who did also got pairs.
New Balance website canceled the majority of orders I was able to get for you guys (myself included) and I think only 4 or 5 people got orders shipped.
I say all of that to say this, what changed is hcaptcha on shopify, this time last year the bots were able to solve hcaptcha automatically with ease in under 4 seconds and i could run infinite tasks, Now any bot that tries that get payment error when submitting order. The solution devs have come up with that works is solving hcaptcha manually. Which means at the time of the drop I will have to solve 1 hcaptcha challenge per task and if I'm running for 15+ people including myself and my f&f it just won't work. You are better off trying for yourself and have a better chance of hitting than your task being the 15th captcha I have to solve.
Now if and when rose water bronsons drop on NB that's a different story and I'll be able to run for everyone (that I don't have blocked) let's just hope there's plenty of pairs available on Friday and that we get a release on NB.

This is why you GOAT! Thanks for the info! Will try on Friday on his site and hope we hit/get a NB release as plan B!

I know the pre-order thing has been talked about, but it’s such a simple solution. These companies want a mad dash.

These 993 seasalts are just a gr right? Why does it feel like they are being released like a collab?

I'm wondering if they'll sit.

If Chives hit discount and been easy to find the past month then I think these will probably be similar. It's too similar to the v2's dropping the next day, and I want those more.

Good point. I'm leaning towards the v2s too.

If it's not a collab its labelled as GR right? Which doesn't mean much, GRs could still be limited release.

Typically GRs have a lot of quantity, though the numbers for the MiUSA/UK lines might be different. I've just seen a few pages that had countdown clocks, which is strange for a non-collab release. There's even been a raffle on a few sites. I'm trying to remember any shoe that had a raffle that was not a collab release.

Hopefully those chive discounts come back around.

Yeah sounds right I don’t really use Stock X or GOAT as a gauge cause most people on there just want to rip you off.

Spring beaters

 

[theuserjohnny]

Passed on em when they came out and couldn't find em at the outlets... Oddly enough END randomly restocked my size. Happy to have these prob replace regular greys and become the dailies.

 

[calye2da]

Such a beautiful sneaker

 

[CHICHAN]

Missed Carhartt V6's at the outlet, and to add insult to injury my local boutique restocked Saturday and I missed my size there as well. Universe is telling me something (trying to not interpret the message as 'buy at resell').

These recently:

ALD x t500s came in today and an 11.5 is a little snug in the toe box, but the length is just right.

Not a hooper but the 4 is his best signature shoes design wise, might cop the all grey pair once they go.on sale.

As a hooper I liked the OMN1s best.

 

[vidiviciun]

These are looking good... Still passing on them tho..

Reminds me of those AM1's from 2007 "Sunshine Rainbow"..

Now these joints...

Hmm....it's basically the same as $250+Cali Tax+$10 shipping

But these should be gettable right?

 

[vidiviciun]

cgs37 They should be... I'm going to hold out for a better deal. Plus, I think they require signature for delivery & I ain't bout that life..

bklyn style baby thanks for the early heads up! ​
