My thoughts as well. Don't own any TBs, need one in the collection... But in all honesty Haven repping Canada so I'm in. Not like they need my support or anything but I'm in. And the details like the leather heel cup, leather tongue, uncaged, and atr like protection make it for me.
Also, the laces are wack as ****. Def lace swapping those things. Why'd they make them so damn long?

So the Haven is a collab , not part of the sneaker exchange neither, just like the consortium tour last year? or is it a ******* gr? God dammit adidas straight your **** up

The details in the haven are just garbage details, it's not like details on garbage make garbage look any different

If you're Canuck then gotta try for a pair. Just like Reigning Champ collab. Represent. Both upcoming pairs are not too bad. Not my thing though.
Guys up North get shafted by the drop numbers every release and then get max taxed from own govn't for pairs shipped in. Just terrible.
Good luck.

The way I see it is adidas Consortium is a line under adidas that puts out their own models of shoes. Then sneaker exchange is a program under Consortium

It's like the SNS 1.0, WoodWood, HighSnob, Naked, Kith Mid UBs, without the lesser-hyped (WoodWood excluded) tag along model. In reality, it's almost kind of back to the solo-model Hypebeast UB release (plus all the current, uniform consortium handshake branding). Not necessarily out of the realm though.
I've always been curious how the selection process works. (I.e. Who decides/how is it decided what boutique/collaborator gets paired with which model, etc.)

Not sure if you noticed or not but he still had two more eyelets he didn't put the laces through at the top

very good question ..with the SNS x SS collab I dont think all consortium shops got them,.. for instance I never heard a peep from UNDFTD on the drop not on social media or anything.. i even called the shop 2 days before release, dude said they had no idea...
wouldnt be surprised if they did a silent drop....if anyone knows if they got them, id love to hear

Yeah I feel the same way. I'm passing, but if I was Canadian I'd be hunting these. I gotta get the Hong Kong pack just for the R2. I hate paying resale prices, but might have to cave in this time.

I would appreciate em more if not every shoe he reviews is 'fire' . I would understand you wouldn't buy a shoe you didn't like but he buys like every single one in every single CW.
There is not a CW or boost shoe the dude doesn't like so just seems real groupie mentality.
But props to him for having Adidas send him shoes. not quite a boost shoe for the 'boost god' but adidas aint sending me packages so kudos.

I looked at the vid very briefly. Didn't they go to a shop so it was part of a shipment that he should be selling at retail or was it a consignment shop? Either way those probably will be sold at resale prices for all except his friends.

Well that's more of an allocation issue. (which in its own right, is a separate thing)
To elaborate, the question I was posing was - how is it decided that Collette and Undefeated will get the Campus and Eqt, respectively. Or Shoe gallery getting stuck with a clima-cool, and the now obvious ones like a Solebox with the Uncaged, or Haven with a UB and so forth. Just something I'd been curious about throughout the process.
Sidenote: Undftd did get the SNSxSS.

I saw it somewhere, but don't remember the exact details. They picked 24 boutiques to combine to do a special collab every month. Other than that I don't know how which 24 was selected or how each monthly release was paired up or which shoe they had to do or if the two boutiques had the power to make that decision.

The way I'm striking out on nike SNKRS app for every release that I want, I'm awfully close to it with the exception of NB for baseball cleats.

He seems like a nice guy but he's obviously an extremist...anything Nike/JB is trash? Cmon now...and it's just ironic when he tweets something like this out..
lol not sure if HE can be any more closed minded

oh I'm sure he is. just the presentation of what he does is quite annoying sometimes. which is why i fast forward because 99.99% of the time he's gonna call every shoe 'fire'

Every sneaker over the past year has been boosted except for one pair of Asics Gel Lyte III & a pair of silver AIr Max Zero's I got on END for $85....that are still DS lol.
