I've worn them lightly a few times and was goinng to sell them but decided not to. I've been getting offers at least twice a week for the past two months. All around $800-900. Not willing to part with them now though because I plan to wear them again some time. 

IF YOU ARE ASKING, WILL THE VALUE OF YOUR ZENS DROP? THEN NO ONE CAN SAY FOR SURE. I FOR ONE BELIEVE THE YEEZY 2 CRAPS ALL OVER THE YEEZY 1. IF I GET A PAIR OF THESE, I WOULD NOT TRADE THE PLATINUM OR SOLAR RED PAIR FOR ANY OF THE YEEZY 1'S. IF SOMEHOW I DID TRADE A PAIR, YOU WOULD HAVE TO ADD CASH ON TOP OF THAT YEEZY 1, SO IN MY EYES, YES THEY WILL DROP IN VALUE BUT EVERYONE'S ANSWER IS DIFFERENT BECAUSE EVERYONE HAS THEIR OWN PREFERENCE.

I think it means Energy.  I want to say I read it on Nikestore's twitter around the release of all of the All Star kicks.  Don't quote me on that though.

NRG is a separate company that has a contract with Nike. Does not mean Energy or NASA Research Group, like people argued with me over when the All star pack dropped.

They have a contract with Nike to do what?

 

[reidwms]

They're a marketing company.

they'll go back up....i think the lowest i've seen em since the original RD was $400 for a worn pair...i'm on the same wagon AY2 > AY1.....but i think the prices for AY1 will be higher than the AY2, especially if the AY2 rumors were true about them being more available.

Curious that Nike would hire an outside company to market for them... Nike has proven to be a marketing MONSTER through the years.

Did they need inspiration for colorways for the all-star shoes and design with Yeezy? Or is this more of a raise awareness/limit distribution campaign?

Interested if anyone knows how closely NRG works with Nike...

You must not know nike very well. A vast majority of their marketing is outsourced. Much of their ad campaigns are done by wieden and kennedy. http://www.wk.com/

its kinda annoying now with the PMs.

What do you expect when you say something to the lines of "helping" anyone if the price is right on this caliber of shoe.

I knew to expect it but I leaked some galaxy foam stuff too and damage wasn't even this tough.

Worse part is kids locally think I stole the pics from here and am reposting them on FB groups...
