Official Nike Air Max Penny 1 Updated - 2022 Retro Coming!

Raffles Raffles Raffles

I might just bite the bullet and get these from Goat. Save myself the hassle and disappointment.
 
I understand raffles are where we’re at in this shoe journey, but my question is do people even hit on them?

I’ve never hit on any of these store/retailer raffles, so I guess I ain’t putting in enough work.

What I do “hit on” is telemarketers and hella spam e-mail.

Only “raffle” I do these days is SNKRS & .END.
 
Especially when you call a sneaker store, to inquire about them. And no one doesn’t have a clue about the shoe
The days of knowledgeable sneaker folks working in shoe stores are practically over. Most of these stores are now filled with kids born in the mid 2000s so all they know is what’s hot now (dunks, 1s, etc) which is understandable but annoying.. I’m at the age where I hate making blank trips to the mall but that’s practically what you have to do now.

I called my local foot store a few days before the original intended Penny 1 release and they thought I was talking about those mystic navy Jordan 1 lows lol.

This.

I remember as a 16 year old trying to get jobs at foot stores and they’d never hire me even though I know for a fact I knew more about sneakers than anyone working in there.
 
I havent bothered talkin sneakers with shoe employees since 2014 when a dude in Shoe Palace here in Phoenix asked me if I was getting the Black suede Foams.

My reply was dude there not even Foamposites there suede and there a wack hypebeast shoe I like real Foams.

He said should have known a guy wearing Concord lows wouldnt know **** about shoes n got real mad I laughed n left.

Same man!!!! Even til this day I think about picking up a part time gig at a shoe store during the holidays lol, that’s not flying with the wife though.. that would literally not even be work for me to talk sneakers all day
 
I’ve thought about doing the same too, especially during the summer as a teacher having that time off. With three little ones that’s not flying with the wife lol. Plus whatever that might do to my taxes whenever we file every year.
 
Didn’t see a Penny 2 thread but Stussy collab:

I think some are legit, but these random ones with basic *** raffle pages. Especially if there's resell value, I don't trust them.

and these raffles might have you ending up with multiple. Who knows.
