    Nike Air Jordan Retro Metallic V - 7/23/16

    This. The soles don't bother me ANYWHERE NEAR as much as the netting. The netting doesn't seem to 'yellow evenly' either. Meaning? The V's I have, personally? Seems that the netting on the tongue under the laces yellows slower than the side netting. Guessing because the laces suck up...

    Nike Air Jordan 4 Retro "White/Cement" - The Aftermath - NO BUYING/SELLING/TRADING

    100% just my opinion, but? I feel like a % of older heads think, regarding younger heads on J's, that if you DGAF about Jordan AND aren't from the era that birthed this monster, why do you care rn? They feel if you've no connection AND no Effs given, then you HAVE to be 'a bad guy', so to...

    Air Jordan 7 Retro “Hare” - May 16, 2015

    I've gotta'be honest. If this happened to ME? I'd only care about the shoes. I DO have almost all my original boxes, but IDC about them much. Someone said earlier: Why is Nike selling marked B grades at retail? ..I think that's a fair question. I also think, off rip? Fresh out the...

    Jordan XI Low White/Red Summer '16 NO BUYING/SELLING/TRADING/OPS

    These are pretty dope, but? If I was to cop one of the two Lows, I think it'd be the Blue/Gum. With so many of my kicks being black or white based CW? ..the blue appeals by default, to me. Obviously way easier to keep looking fresh than the White/Red too, even aside from the outsole, as the...

    Could try Retrobrite. The dirt that's gotten deep inside the translucent soles seems to 'come out from within'. And, if you're only 'spot treating' the side of the outsole you're not worried about traction loss or sole separation either. IDK, just a suggestion. It's cheap and quick to...

    That was my thought, too. Right or wrong, that was my thought.

    Nike Air Jordan Retro Metallic V - 7/23/16

    I've been amped for these since info first dropped. Still am. Personally? I feel like these are DAMN close to 'the best we can reasonably expect to get'. That's obviously JMO, and I totally understand the heads who argue price point vs tech and that considering it 'we' should 'get...

    We all like what we like. My affinity for or distaste for a certain model or CW has ZERO to do w/anyone ELSE'S right to have their own opinion. I also don't expect ANYONE to agree OR GAF about my opinion. That said? I think the Piston VI is hands down the worst VI. The Midnights, tho'...

    It takes time. Unless your soles are literally BARELY yellowed, you're not getting them DS translucency crazy quick. Also? It's not just direct sunlight and heat that dry it up. It's also air. That's the purpose of the plastic wrap, to keep the shoe wet. If it dries on the shoe, it can...

    Nike Air Jordan Retro Metallic V - 7/23/16

    I don't work at a retail sneaker store, so I'm going off of how they've been receiving their stock, in my area, over the last five years. Here? The major stores, your FL and FNL? Typically DO NOT get their stock THIS early. I know for a fact, that often times? They don't get their J's...

    Nike Air Jordan Retro Metallic V - 7/23/16

    The mall here was FCFS for YEARS. After boutiques started opening up and GM kicks were everywhere, the lines and hype just got 127820127820127820. It's pretty much all raffle now. For five years, as long as I planned my cake and got up early? I was Gucci. Now? lmao. It's WAY more work...

    Nike Air Jordan Retro Metallic V - 7/23/16

    These won't even make it to the floor here. They'll all be spoken for by raffles, and a few spots that still do FCFS and allow lining up at 4am. Either way, they won't make it to the floor on RD before they're ghost.

    First time I cleaned the bottoms of my Oreo VI, the scuffing effects had left that discoloration. This is what they looked like after the first session. You can see that the white parts of the sole are clean crisp white now.
