2024 NIKE SB DUNK THREAD_____GRs and QSs added

[breakjonn]

I loved the Psyence Fiction album but tbh only knew about it all because I love DJ Shadow. Did he help with these colabs?

DJ shadow? Its possible he might have had some input on the unkle highs, but then again I'm not sure, futura himself says he never cosigned the highs and they were never intended to release with his artwork.

I think it was initially launched for the scavenger hunt, but the link in the product description is from March...the email is worded such that it would give anyone that cops early access to whatever he's hinting at dropping in January.

Sup Everyone!

You didn’t think I’d let the year go by without one more letter right??? Nah, I couldn't let that happen.

2018 was an incredible year! Yes there was a lot of BS happening all around us, but you know what...what year was that?? I’ve been living in NYC and running a business in one of the most competitive markets for longer than I’d like to say. And the one thing that I’ve learned, is that every year is ready to offer a heaping plate of ******!t — fresh off the grill!

So what’s our job? Our job is to stay above that. “When they go low, we go high”. You know what’s been my motto since 1997? A Positive Social Contagion. (aka stay above all that trash.)

And that can the take form of anything. It can be a t-shirt that gets you a compliment each and every time you rock it. It can be that dope hoodie that makes you feel like you’re wearin a piece of armor. It can be some kicks that make you feel invincible. It can be attending a talk given to a select few. Or it can be a podcast that can change your life.
It might even be a scholarship program where we take big corporate money and funnel it back to the independent creators.
Whatever it is... it can be all of that. And more.

The challenging (but fun) part about running this company is that we got everyone to #FlockWithUs. From the most triple OG executives, to the hungriest artists in the game. From streetwear luminaries in Europe. To the next generation torch bearers in Asia. This is what keeps me running. Sometimes I feel like Jay Electronica when he said “That's why the people got my back like I’m the Verizon man”. (Except I be puttin out content )

Anyway, I guess what I’m saying is I feel mad inspired going into 2019—regardless of what the world wants to throw at us. And I hope in some way, what I’m doing can inspire you to feel the same.

PS:
You know, the percentage of people that know Staple but get these letters from me, is pretty tight. When I write these letters, I’m like talkin to fam. You’ve probably figured out this ain’t no mailchimp template haha.
So I’m a let my family in on a little secret.
In January, we are dropping a very special collaboration. With a very special brand. With many many levels & components to it. And I want to give you guys A KEY to unlock first access! In fact, I already did! Many of you already own this Staple Pigeon Keychain. This keychain contains some amazing tech that can unlock special drops at any given time. You just need to tap your smartphone to the keychain, and boom, you’re in. If you don’t have this Keychain, I highly suggest you cop it. It’s $25 bucks and it will save you a ton of hassle, stress, FOMO (and reseller charges) later.
Trust me, it’s almost worth it if the keychain did nothing but hold your keys lol. But come January? Yo. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.
Trust me.
JUST DO IT.

PPS:
One last thing. Have a happy and safe holiday.
Our holiday sale begins tomorrow—but for you guys? It begins NOW. An early bird special just for y’all so you have a better chance of grabbing your sizes.
Lets make the twenty nineteen ours!

PEACE!

I HATE the idea of having to purchase something else to be able to then purchase a sneaker, especially if we’re talking about him trying to sell those horrible black/white Pigeons. These release gimmicks are already starting to get on my nerves from SB. They should honestly make things at least QS available to get back into the good graces of customers that stood with them through the roughest of patches with the brand. All these super limited drops and SNKRS scans are a waste and pretty much will in up in the hands of resellers and sitting on consignment shop shelves collecting dust with outrageous price tags.

 

[mrdiiing]

yall think its a retro of the OG pigeons?

 

[hotpockets]

nope

 

[krueger3737]

Doesn't really make any sense.

 

[downyboy]

seems like poor execution, anyone with an image of the box could do that.

 

[donewithjs]

**** is getting way to corny with these releases.

PREACH!!!!!

On a side note the msgs these thirsty IG stars are leaving for Deon are hilarious.

 

[vinnuendo]

Yeah I'm good. I work for money to buy shoes, I don't work to buy shoes.

 

[pdoggy85]

Called fed ex and looks like my package has not been delivered after all, definitely a glitch or something as even the employee on the other end never experienced before. Currently in their facility and should be on a truck for delivery today.

Let’s see what happens.

I live in LA and my tracking says my package was signed for by E. Garrison as well. It ended up arriving this afternoon.

 

[aj27526]

I like the “f*** the DMs” part like he didn’t sign off on whatever trippy rap flavor of the month rapper got pairs early

 

[j mobile]

So this Staple key chain business is annoying. John00 already said it, but the notion of having to buy one thing to get "access" to another, always feels weird to me. Sure it can help weed out some, but you're already after my dinero, and asking for more money in order to allow me to give you the dinero I was already willing to give you. Not a fan of such things.

As for the Green Lobster drop...Really?!? So unless I was a Shopify superhero (or lucky AF), I live in MA, or I dropped chips to buy the "special" packaging version of the Purps via resale, I'm just SOL on even trying to get the Green pair? Yay!

 

[Cnowledge]

 

[rillo561]

**** is definitely corny, but I'm just salty I missed out on the purps, so bah humbag I say to it all.

 

[aj27526]

All my brethren looking purples, there’s been a StockX plunge today. My size (12) has literally dropped almost 70 dollars. Approaching the 220s

 

[vegetaray123]

It’s because all these little hype rats are getting their pairs delivered and looking to make some extra Christmas cash...Starting to undercut each other...Holding out for $200 or below though...It’s getting there...

 

[John00]

Doesn't really make any sense.

The most mind boggling part of this all is they actually think that this horribly executed idea stops resellers.

[cgnt]

To be fair, resellers are technically probably their highest-spend customers...

 

[llerraj]

The gimmicks to get shoes are ridiculous.
