true, doesn't have to be Ds or expensive just the shoe you really like. Mine is the tour yellow 4's, can't afford ds but copped preowned for $110..

Hypebeast is the one of the most homo words ever created.

I agree with you 1000 percent that's why I put "hypebeast?"

I was just basically saying $320 to $340 wasn't as high as some people where trying to make it for a preorder. When you Got Yeezy's, Galaxy Foams, SB Lebron 8's, etc selling in the thousands. Not trying to offend anybody "grails" was just making that point.

Iono it seems like a simple arguement in my eyes. 320-340 may buy your grail and it may not, just depends on the grail. You just seem bent on pointing out that it can't get expensive kicks, which is true. I would definitely love any of the shoes you mentioned but grails to me mean more than value. Just my side.

I mentioned the XIs because when you ask a lot of people what their grails are, most of the time you're going to get the Jordan XI as your answer. All of the shoes you're naming are "grails" because they're limited. All I'm saying is quantity produced =/= people's grails.

Personally my favorite Jordan's are the 4's but it is what it is we've both made our points

*daps*
The worse is there are some posters who purchased those outrageous prices willingly and are going to be trying to cop a second pair for resale...

I get what you guys are saying. I really do. I've rocked with the "retail or bust" mentality for a long time. But when the amount of busts continue to grow larger n larger than the amount of retail cops, it's gotten to a point where I'm in essence continually forced to pass on sneakers I really want just because it wasn't made in high enough quantities to meet the demand.
I only have one life to live. Sneakers are material. We all get that. But they're also an amazing hobby if done responsibly. I'm not gonna stress out over adding to a shoe epidemic. If I really want a shoe, I'm gonna get that shoe. If it comes to a point where the spending is no longer responsible, then it'll be time to move on from this hobby.

LOL at the argument in general. Everyones situation is completely different.....some of us jumped on the Pre-Orders because we fell in love with the shoe and don't want to deal with the games....some of us jumped on the Pre-Orders because we don't need someone off NT advising us on how to "save money"....and I speak for myself, but it was an easy decision since it's the ONLY shoe that I want this month. I don't need any of the retro Jordan 6's or the Kobe 9's...although I wouldn't mind having them. So paying extra for the shoe that I really love and passing on the ones that I can live without...saved me just as much money.
And mind you, this whole discussion that has now stirred up before the shoe has even released....is EXACTLY why I don't want to be stuck stressing out over a raffle or a bot infested TLO release...

I have that exact problem with the XI, my left foot feels fine but the right feels tight around the front outside I went a half size up on my BHM pair waiting on the break in before I can tell if it helped.

i hate paying over retail, but sometimes you just gotta do what you gotta do.. as far as trying to copp on rd for retail. i will be trying, but you know how many times i've did a pre order and scored on rd ? zero!
if i ever did tho my plan is always to sell my pre order pair for what i paid for it, which is most likely gonna be way cheaper then resale 9 times out of 10

I've been on the XI model since the beginning and I must say they're the most hyped colorway thus far so prepare yourself the best way you can
