NIKE Air Jordan IV OG White Fire Red: Black Friday 2020: Nov. 28th

I’m calling ducktails on that person that said his friend wore his pair once and the paint cracked. We need some proof, I don’t believe it.

No reason for me to lie. My friend posted it on his IG story. Asked him what happened and he went out for dinner and drinks in NYC and he snapped a pic of the of the medial part of the shoe once he got home.

After seeing all the issues/problems with the shock drop pairs, i just wanted to share what i saw and see if it happened to anybody else.

Just screen shot the story.

You know NT. A pic or it didn't happen.

pic or it never happened:lol:
OK I’m not trying to call you a liar, if you took it that way my bad. I thought JB fixed the paint issues so hearing that from you was strange and upsetting.
 
My SNKRS pair came pre-creased.

I totally get it. I didn’t take it personal so I’m not trippin. I would’ve thought the same thing if i was in your position.

Wish i did take a screen shot cuz i was really shocked by how bad it was. We’ll see what the upcoming pairs look like And hopefully i get a good pair. *crosses fingers
 
Motorsports IV's are garbage.. decent colorway though. I wish my pair was still DS so I can move em. I use them as kicks I wear to an event when I don't want to dirty my good stuff.

Last time I wore them was to a covid bday in a park. Leather and build is poop though.
 
So where are those damn 20% off ebay coupons these days? I recall a couple of years ago (or maybe 3) we were getting them every month or two. Would love to use that on one of these day. Thanksgiving is just such a headache with family and everything going on. Ugh....

I think we are seeing (and will continue to see) less and less of these because they've been incentivizing the crap out of their platform to compete with SX/Goat. Now they have no fees above 110 or w/e and they're adding the legit check. So I can see them not wanting to hand out coupons as much or sneaker related discounts.

I think I saw 2 searching from summer till now and they always seemed geared toward things you can't use on kicks like gardening. (I hate that one).

Unfortunately I'm sure you're right... Damn it.

Mine have little wear. I'd also likely move them if they were DS but the colorway looks so awesome. Good winter Jordan for me I guess.

White shoes are typically considered summer shoes, but beaters are beaters I suppose.
 
It must be exhausting thinking of shoes this way. They’re just shoes. Some of y’all really have to let go of this idea that they are meant as trophy pieces. Wear the hell out of them and enjoy while you can. They are going to retro again in 5 or so years so you will be able to have a fresh new pair.
I won’t lie it is kind of exhausting but it’s who I am. But I don’t consider them trophy pieces. I want to wear them all as much as possible and keep them as fresh as possible while doing it. I don’t consider myself a collector at all this time around and won’t buy anything I won’t wear. Life is too short.

And yes sometimes the shoe will release again in 5 years but some of the retro plus cws will never get released again or who knows when. Hell my OG 13 lows didn’t get a retro until 2017 and who knows if they will again. Good thing the OGs can be worn still.

And then there’s the retro that gets a really good treatment like the 2018 concords. How do I know the next time it retros it will be as good? Or even near as good? I mean you would think so but this is JB we’re talking about. See all these things factor into how I think like this.

It’s no seller fees for adult athletic shoes at least $100 or more total (including shipping but not tax).
Cost of living too high... just move south. Georgia looks to be becoming more civilized.
Way too high. My cousin finally stopped trying to convince me to move out there to LA where he is. First of all I hate LA it’s so overrated. And then the weather isn’t perfect like they claim. I hate the heat and it’s too hot there. But the cost of living is absolutely ******ed. No way for a garbage spot like LA. Now San Francisco would be nice but again cost of living no way. Colorado is where I would like to be for many many reasons.

Maaaan text your boy and ask him to send you a picture.

Do it for NT man. :nthat:



I'd throw them out entirely. Mars and 2012 were beyond trash. Shape and quality.

This!!!

Left is ironed, right isn’t. Made them look a little bit better.
Did they wrinkle up on the stitch line at all? I want to do but really dont want to mess up my pair like the BC4s last year I over ironed them and they wrinkled on the toes.
 
What's good OG. How is it copping kicks there now. I know ATL is decent from what I know of and from when I have visited but not really sure what its like now. NYC used to be good at least when Foot apps were rocking. Now this city is useless for kicks unless youre a reseller or have wild time.
Pretty much the same, I’m not a technically a reseller but I do get pairs on lock if you pre-order with me. A lot of my co workers that I worked with in footlocker throughout the city are district managers now. My main one is at West End and Southlake Mall. They will hold any pair if the $ is right.
