Damn! I've been trying to win with our Champs and FTL for almost two years now. I FINALLY got selected. I have my EA pair, and going for that double-up tmrw.
I finally made the move to clear sneaker storage cases, and found the Blue/White GHII retro. I think from 2013 or 2014? They're still wearable, but I wish they'd retro that one again. Along with a proper retro of the Olympics. Not some "200 Pairs Worldwide," or whatever stunt they pulled a few...
My panic purchase pair from SNKRDUNK was delivered. They're from SZ (the shoe to the right) vs my LN4 pair I've been wearing. Not too many differences, IMO.
I've wondered how these stores stay in business in these dinky-a** malls. The one in the Caesar's Forum Shops is understandable. But... isn't the rent high for mall space?
I'll be 43 next week! I SHOULD be in those conversations about quality. But, usually that's a non-issue for me, personally. However, THIS is unacceptable.
If you don't my asking, what happened? I'm taking the same stance you are about StockX. It wasn't their fault. The seller didn't ship item (SB4's). I'm thinking because they sold them for a higher price. Still aggravating.
I used the Salon 45 stuff from Sally's. It's a red/white bottle. You don't need much of it. So, if there's a small bottle just for the few pairs you need to clean up, get that one.
Don't forget your paintbrush to apply the gel, your clingwrap, and hopefully a good, sunny day.
Edit: Salon 40...
Pair #1 just delivered. They were in Memphis last night. The unintentional pair #2 will be here, eventually (SNKRDUNK), which I'm just gonna take to the resell shop since I can't return them.
"Unintentional?" you may be asking? FTL and Champs were cooked as soon as 8A online ticked. I had...
That is very true. Another reason I entered so many is because I live in Montana. We're LUCKY to get any AJ drop. That includes the 38's. Maybe Foot Locker in Billings. Maybe Scheel's in Billings (both raffles if they do get them). You'd be surprised the sh*t I don't hit on. GR's that, if we do...
You're not crazy. I entered at least 13 myself. A few of those are through my wife. Just like you, I just want ONE retail pair. If I can hit multiple, I'd like to use a pair, and add some cash on top to get another 2019 pair. Return, the extras. Or, sell locally at retail is the plan if I get...
I never understood how or why the "Black Cat" AJ's hold so much value, as I have never been a fan of all black sneakers. I have a feeling these are going to be highly-favored amongst sneakerheads. I hope everyone that wants them will be able to add these to their collections.
