i understand the importance of a westbrook shoe, but i don't know if in a decade I want his face on the shoe, especially a highly visible image more than once, but the cw is dope

In a decade he'll be practicing his hall of fame speech.

Are you staring at his pic when you wear them?

The kicks are an excellent collectors item for people who like Westbrook or OKC. The pic is what will be more memorable ten or fifteen years from now, versus a colorway that could be on any sneaker.

Got a pair this week from finish line and put them on and took a couple steps in my apt and the midsole already creased.

How long do you expect your midsole to stay in pristine condition?

Anyone pick up the black/gold lows?

Some pics would be appreciated.

Crappy cell phone pics that don't do them justice.

the shoes are what the shoes are, with our without his face, are shoes only remembered by the images on them, and as far as cw, didn't seem like black and red takes away from the flu games, a shoe that commemorates a triple double season will be just that with or without his image on the shoe...... p. s. I don't have to stare at my shoe to know it's something on it I don't like, if that's the case nobody would mind stains on their clothes

I don't expect them to stay pristine. My point was that if a shoe is tried on in a store and not bought it's still considered new.

Lol ok tell the store that next time you try to buy a pair

There is a difference in most people's opinion between "brand new" and "deadstock"

well you know you can send shoes back and ask for a different pair

This. If a shoe is tried on they're not DS. They're still brand new though.

yea, i'm not saying they aren't new

Some eBay sellers are the worst. I came across a listing today that was labeled as, new with box. Under the description it said, "Only worn a couple times. Brand new." Really, dude?

Hey everyone, just picked up blk/gold xxxi low from Richard's for a pretty decent price. They are running some promos right now that DO NOT exclude xxxi's. (I used $20 off shoes + $20 rewards cash)

 

[jaynev]

$10 off every $50 you spend at Richard's so same price, but different codes worked for me just now.

Very true. If I sell a shoe factory fresh I always say Brand New - NTO (Never-Tried-On)
