Man you won't find them for cheap. I lucked out on a DS US11.5 pair for $1,200 like 3 years ago...I knew it was salty then but I had just sold 4-5 pairs of Jordans and knew I'd never find them for a better price.
You have THREE pair of HOA? Damn! I got my pair for $74 off ebay like a year or so ago haha, def need a second pair.
haha man it's a damn shame that $1k is considered "cheap" for a pair of freaking sneakers. That's hands down my favorite shoe all time. I'd do unspeakable things for a pair. I just can't justify spending $3500 on a pair, though. As boss as they are, I can do 3 Bespokes for that price.
I would certainly say the bespoke experience and everything and making your truly dream AM1 for $1k is better than spending $1k+ on any other older pairs....as long as you make a dope *** pair and don't get a horrific toebox...lol luckily mine turned out bettter than most pairs Ive seen.
No, close..it was an 11 haha
i would def go for a pair of bespokes over an old pair for 1000. my toe box will not turn out poorly. heck, i'll ask them to iron that joint before i pick it up.
I wore my greystones into my appointment and said I would pay extra if they could duplicate the shape
haha the Greystone is one I've look for recently. I couldn't find a pair anywhere. What would they go for these days?
depends on size and condition really. there was an nds pair on k'lekt for 375 euro.
A lot, especially in 10.5- 11 I think I made a trade equal to like $400+ or so on them
Oh they know, there were two consultants in there. Both super dope and knew their ****. One was wearing the blk quilt back from like 08 or whatever and the other one was wearing his own bespoke which was basically like the first APCs, all waterproof canvas with some other ****. But they laughed bc they knew about the banana shape and everything. Here are pics of his bespokes, I don't think I ever shared these with you guys...
Damn plan and simple but yet super dope and cleanA lot, especially in 10.5- 11 I think I made a trade equal to like $400+ or so on them

yup. just saw that. amazing how a little marketing hype makes all those space garbage sneakers look a little better. for a split second i was thinking, ehhh the tapes and ultras dont look terrible. they waving that magic wand and fairy dust on all y'all.
it's when I iron a toebox and it become all puffy was my reasoning, like there was extra material that wouldnt let it lay down flatlike. Could be that I am not going at it enough, but then I get those little creases where the stitching is.
if i were to spend 500 on am1s it would be (give or take condition for that price):
Thanks. The Shima Blue and the Crepe are at the top of my list. Love both.
Great list!
I reallyyyyy regret selling my crepes....and the toebox was perfect condition, usually they're all frayed and what not, I remember seeing a 10.5 recently for good price - I'll look for you
