Initially I thought the Black Beards were better, but I'm now liking the Red Sea colourway better.
Will get both, but priority #1 is the Red Sea's.

I like them both equally, and feel that Li-Ning kinda dropped the ball on the outsoles on both of them, but I feel that way about a lot of the recent releases. Just so many white outsoles. 2 of the Drips, the Raz Fuego, the College, and both of these. 6 out of 8 releases since the BHM/Dwyane Wade kicked off this recent flurry have had white outsoles. I mean, why?

I always like a white outsole, the white contrast usually sets the shoe off.
What would you prefer on these? Something similar to the 305 drip outsole would have been pretty nice on the Red Sea's.

That would work on the Red Seas. But really anything - smoky black/grey like the Grey Boys or like on the All Stars. Even black woulda worked with the stingray pattern. Just something other than white. I like white, just don't like how it looks dirty so fast. Same problem I had with so many Kobe IX's.
Regardless, I'll end up picking both up.

Just wanted to let all Wade fans out there know about the launch of WadeCollector.com. It is a work in progress but provides the most complete database on Wade releases available online and will continue to be updated until it is complete. You also will find current Wade news and release info.

Finally broke down and bought the Vet Day 2s from sunlight. Its been over a year since I wanted them. Since I had the 1 and the 3 figured may as well complete the collection.

Nice bro! They were still on super sale I hope. I debate on getting the 1's from time to time. Maybe after the last few 3's drop that I want I'll grab them if my size is still there. SS did however bless me with a pair of Vet Day 3's. should be here this week.

Anybody ever get hit with custom from Sunlight? Ordered plenty of times but never over $300. Want to cop both Black Beards & Red Seas.

Yea it was 90 shipped. Was hoping for even cheaper haha, but it was a decent price. They'll be perfect for the baby reveal party my wifes throwing on the 4th
You should be ok. I ordered the ASG 2s when they originally released and never got hit. They were like 285 when i ordered them

I ordered the black ASG 2.0s from them and never got it. But we're talking another $100 on top.

Does this mean code reds come out next week? If so I'll hold off on the red seas.

Hmmm, I totally didn't even think about this, but I ordered both from them so we'll find out. Mine have already shipped too

SS originally told me at the beginning of the month that Code Red's were tentatively scheduled for the 19th. Clearly didn't release today, but I can assume next week.

I have had two orders over $300 with SS and no customs.
Ordered the Black Beards from SS today and Red Seas already OOS in size 11 on members section. Oh well, liked the Black beards a lot more, and thinking about copping the Gone Fishing Foams so probably for the best.

Got the College in from SS and they are very nice. Quality is great, and just a really nice looking CW. Kinda the 3.0 version of the Fontainebleau.

Decided to pull trigger for this. It cost me about USD 87 (SD 119).
WOW 3 cost about SD 219 no sale and I cannot justify to pay that much for now with economy so slow.
I am not Singaporean just happened to be there for work for 3 days, but WOW2 and Encore are on sale for that price with plenty of size still available. If you guys have connection over there, it is a good deal overall.
I feel the tongue and the pressure from the side of the shoes bothers me while I jog, hopefully it will be back of my mind while playing.
The first thing that I change once I have this is the shoelace placement. The one in front I decided to put it behind the suede. For me it help me to manage how tight I want the upper area is.
Cannot wait to try it next week at th court, I can feel that this one is much more snug than WOW2 encore, which I prefer my shoes that way to play ball.
