Official Saucony Originals / Retro Thread

Pretty annoying, these resellers pivoting from
Jordans to buying up all the Asics and Sauconys now

Because there are so much fewer of them produced. Much easier to set the market on them. Sucks, but I guess us customers did it to ourselves. During peak Jordan days we begged Nike to flood the market, and they obliged. At least now you can get most of them on sale. Those of us who were buying Sauc9ny and Asics the last 10 yrs were blessed with most folks ignoring the models, and if you wanted something (especially a GR) you could pretty easily get it, and often for up to half off. It all balances out in the end, and it's all cyclical anyway. People will tire of runners in a year or two and m9ve on to something else, probably Hokas and Salomons.
 
Yeah, it’s bitten Nike in the rear too. The hits they’ve taken to their bottom line recently will hopefully result in better quality products.

Luckily, Asics and Saucony have deep catalogs and look to be willing to capitalize on their current popularity.

I may be a hater, but to me Hokas and Salomons are a niche shoe for a certain customer base…they just don’t have the heritage that these other more established brands have.

I feel like the classics are timeless, even the Saucony ones. IMHO people will look back this time with runners and say, wtf were we thinking? While the classic models will continue to live on.
 
age of quarrel age of quarrel nice! Thanks to kingsin kingsin for the link :nthat:

Mine just came in, now I want the black pair lol

My pair came in today. Had to settle for a 9.5 instead of my usual 10.5 I get in this model because of my slightly wider foot. Not too bad, big toe would prefer more space, but since it’s mesh it’s doable.

Tried some black laces for a more subtle look, not sure which I’ll go with

how do they fit?

They fit wonderfully and feel great on foot... Saucony 6ks are known for being snug even though some pairs I can get away with my true size (11.5 is tts for me, these are a 12)

I suggest buying your air max 1/90 size or .5 up from your Jordan 1 size
