That's totally fair. Next year is super friggin stacked that I'm gearing up early. Putting money aside for the inevitable double ups and purchases in general. I just made the post to remind people that the last Aqua release will only last so much longer. At least with the new release they'll be...
As for the people talking about passing on these because they already have a solid pair from the '15 release, the Aquas from that year will only be wearable so long. We're pushing 10 years since the last retro, and even if the currently used closed cell polyurethane midsoles don't crumble as...
This. Don't get me wrong, I bought two pairs of last years Playoffs and love them dearly. Heck I even contemplated buying a third. The issue is that when you put them next to the '15 Aqua 8s, you can tell which one is the better retro when it comes to shape/cut and generally being closer to it's...
Dang. I was hoping we'd get Bugs Bunny 8s soon but I'm always in for a pair of Aquas. I hope they get the shape of the heel right (it needs to curve/slant inward toward the toe more), the inner bootie/huarache sleeve and pull tab needs to be higher and longer respectively. I also hope these keep...
I feel that. While I do get tempted by the Georgetowns from time to time, I'm good without them or the Reverse Black/Reds. Next stop on the High '85 train is the actual Black/Reds next year.
Edit: Not sure how that advertisement got into my message but lol
Same thing happened a few days ago when I found out too late. The sale came back like a day or two after I missed the initial one. These aren't moving much online so they'll definitely be on sale again within the next couple days.
So glad I stayed following this thread. Thanks for the link. I had no idea about oneness, let alone these being on sale anywhere. Looking forward to getting them in hand.
They are authentic pairs with enough flaws to prevent them from passing the Nike quality control inspection. IIRC, these are the pairs that usually end up in Nike Outlets alongside releases that sit long enough or because of people returning orders. They usually aren't too bad though some are...
Was looking at photos of my '16 Black Toes and wished I still had them. I'm still kinda iffy on this release mainly because I wish we'd have just gotten them in an improved '85 High cut and shape. JB could have included the signature by neatly and brightly printing it on the translucent-ish...
I want these to be so mass produced that you can find em sitting on shelves in Macy's. BLACK RED 1S FOR EVERYONE! And no I'm not being disingenuous, I truly hope these are easy to get for everyone that wants em. I don't want to see limited stock and loser *** resellers flourishing in any way...
I had a second pair that I had worn briefly back in 2019 but covid happened. I lost my first job as a result of it and began selling some of my sneakers to keep myself afloat while I was looking for a new job. My first double up pair of these got let go in the process. Now that I've got a second...
Got super lucky on ebay recently. Guy wore these once, probably by only trying them on. I say that because based on their condition they don't even look like they've been worn at all. Ended up paying $210 + shipping & tax.
Next to my DS pair from 2019. Now I can finally get these back into...
