Jordan 1 x Nike SB QS!!!!

[jaklap]

Thanks for all the love guys! Glad people seem to think I executed them well. II'll def post more pics when I get back sunday/monday.

Without a doubt my favorite pair of shoes I own. The looks you get when you wear them are priceless. I wore them to Flight Club when I took a trip into the city a few months back and even had the employees following me around trying to peep them better 

Shoot if I had a pair of sneakers that would go with me it would be those! Haha. Don't trust them somewhere I'm not gonna be for awhile. I haven't even looked at what a black pair size 12 going for. Everytime I do it brings a tear to my eye

Haha I try my best to bring em everywhere I can, but when you've got two duffel bags and a snowboard bag full of crap, you can only bring so much on a plane and amtrak. My trainerendors were the only pair of kicks I could bring, along with timbs and snowboard boots. I do miss them after just a week though 

 

And I know, they're going for so much nowadays. I would love to get another black pair to keep unstripped, along with a white pair (I personally like how the blacks look worn better, but the plain whites are fire with how they contrast with the black tongue)

Why are you worried about what others chose to do with their sneakers they paid for?

because they end up reselling ruined pairs. dont worry why im worried you worry about yourself

For all those talking about paint stripping methods, don't forget about Mr. Clean Magic Eraser. It's what I did to mine and I'm extremely happy with the outcome:

Thanks! You should be fine. Wetting it definitely helps, and expect the eraser to disintegrate fast haha, they're meant to do that

I used nail polish remover and I have no issues with the outcome of the leather.

That's with a magic eraser? You def have to scrub pretty hard to get a lot of color exposed like I did. I varied how hard I applied the eraser and how hard I scrubbed to get the faded look of mine.

And my leather feels incredible, I don't think it really harmed the shoes at all

Okay, there were people on here talking about touching up the leather, just wanted to be sure

I need another set too man..

And to think that the $525 I paid for my set is considered a steal now worries me lol

Prices keep rising because stock is drying fast.

lol same boat here paid 690 on rd for 3 pairs from uk shops that dont ship to US, i paid 100 extra just on package forwarding fees and got no VAT discounts, . kinda regretted at the time but not anymore

although i dont LOVE the whites would grab a pair for around 250 just so i can have a set to wear and mismatch. 200 used wink wink lol

I also think people dont realize the production run difference from regular JB

 

[bryanay1]

Holy crap, that's how much LMs (I'm assuming) are going for now? Black or white?

EDIT: Just checked Flight Club and wow they can't even keep them in stock over there haha. The only black left in my size on eBay is being sold as a B/W set for 900 0_0

 

[sairo]

Cant believe the prices I see passing here.

Anyway I'm finally a happy man! It took me almost a year after release but I got my white pair!

A friend of mine bought them in a deal and wasn't really feeling them. Lucky me.

Retail here in Europe was €130. He wanted €170. Done deal. Good luck to those still hunting! (I'm actually hunting for a UNTOUCHED black pair now lol. I love my touched up pair, but I just want a clean one as well as I will be leaving the white ones clean.)

 

[jaklap]

Great pickup Sairo, I love how the clean the whites look when they're untouched. The colored laces work way better on them than the blacks too

As promised, some glamour shots of mine:

Wear em

Thanks man. Thats why I went for the coloured laces. They pop on top of the all white thing!

Anybody in the bay area might know which consignment shop might have a 9.5 in the white? I don't want to deal with ebay
