Honestly, it's kind of a must to have a daily driver when driving luxury cars. They lose value much faster than Hondas and toyotas. Entirely different market. I learned the hard way when I had a BMW as my daily driver.

Daily driver is a Bimmer. Routine maintenance costs are a PITA

My boy had a 07 maxima 135k and my 335 was at 124k. His was worth more than my car was
Not saying much but it was eye opening. People just don't want higher mileage luxury cars and when I say high mileage I mean above 50k

i'm all about those shoe renters/vnds lowballers. i wear a sz 10 and it seems all these 90s-00 babies have ginormous feet for their age so usually i'm offering some 13 year old less than half for a pair you cant even see dirt on.. "I can drive to you to pick them up" = DEAL haha

I swear some angles of this shoe make it look so dope and some angles make it look like the ugliest shoe on Earth.

That is indeed eye opening. Don't have any plans on selling mine anytime in the near future, but this is good to knowMy boy had a 07 maxima 135k and my 335 was at 124k. His was worth more than my car was

^^^ I didn't have plans either until I saw the writing on the wall and I hit an issue where the mechanic couldn't defintiely figure out why my car was running rough.

Why are you making so many excuses for this shoe?

I agree.
After witnessing the dissection, you can see that there is no real value there either. They are not worth two bills. As a fan of LBJ, I prefer the III.

Damn. Haven't hit 100k+ miles yet but what you're saying is rather disconcerting. I'll need to lookout for early signs once I hit that mark

wish you the best of luck. My next adventure to luxury land will have me driving a regular daily driver with a leased luxury car for the weekend and special days. A lease lets you just walk away from the car sooner vs dealing with the exponential depreciation.
Also, anyone that says the bron 12 isn't worth $200 is....... RIGHT! That's why we're on here trying to get discounts whenever possible. No shoe is really worth $200 and cutting it up doesn't change a thing.

I have narrow/normal feet, and when I went to try on a size 13 (my size in basically everything) it felt like there was too much room in the toebox. If you have wide feet I'm guessing they'd run TTS, but for me they ran big.

General consensus is yes. Much more than the last few years.

Played in my XIIs a few times now. The weight, fit/comfot, flexibility and court feel are much improved on the XIIs over the XIs. Heel to toe is also better. The shoes can be a PITA to lace up tight and the megafuse digs into my hands when I try to lace up. Annoying so far but not a deal breaker. The cushioning is definitely different on the XIIs. I love the heel zoom - it is similar to the XX8s/M10s, which is great. I find the XII heel zoom slightly better at absorbing impact so I like it touch better than the XX8 set up. The forefoot is not very responsive or springy, which is disappointing. I'd expect some of this since the zoom is bottom loaded. I'm hoping with more break in the forefoot cushioning gets better. If it doesn't get much better, then these go back to Nike and I'll buy some more XX8s on sale while I wait for the next great ball shoe.

You can send them back in any condition for any reason within 30 days. But if you abuse the policy they'll close your account.

Do those get tossed when they get back to Nike?
