Trade bait isn't a bad thing. Think about it, if you have the opportunity to buy a shoe knowing it can get you a shoe that you really want but either cant afford or don't want to spend the extra cash to buy then why not do it? do you really care what everyone on this board thinks of your purchase? I'm not a reseller but I've learned they're just a part of the culture. The only people I don't like are the ones that end up with full size runs of a shoe just to flip for an obscene amount... if some kid stands in line for a few days to flip a Jordan for some extra money then more power to him, he's working the market and going for what he knows. Cats like NY&Co. that end up with 10+ pairs of Yeezy 2s for 5k a piece, they can eat a bag of male genetalia.

fri day 7 pm actually
and to what gooze wrote: I admit that back like around 2004 if i remember correctly i purchased some royal foam pro b 10.5 ds for resale off iss. hella expensive. I would say that at that time foams were not highly popular let alone even noticed! nowadays I just notice a huge surge in all this "hype" for something that has high resale value. Can I honestly blame a consumer who "wants" to take "advantage" of a "chance" to make a little extra come up? No. Can I honestly blame a billion dollar revenue company for advertising and promoting their product using tactful methods to attract more buyers even if there is not enough shoes in stock for everyone? No. But I am peeved about how quickly reselling sneakers in general just blew up. Like out of nowhere to me what started the rollercoaster was the jordan XI spacejams. Until that drop honestly I never even noticed shoes of such caliber in general just flying off of shelves, never noticed all these "raffles", lineups, and other crazyness just to land a pair of regular sneakers that have been hyped highly. All I a really saying is that there are people who are taking advantage of sneakers to either profit, trade for something, or wear for pride AND then there are those who buy for half style half function like balling, and buying them cause you simply like the brand for what it is.

I definitely feel you, theres too much spotlight on it and everything sells out to people trying to make a buck. I think the South Beach Lebrons set the pace for +1000 being acceptable for resale of a not extremely rare shoe. Hell the first Yeezys were reselling at 600 and that was considered high, fast forward to 3000 being a steal for some red Y2s... its changed alot.

how do the aglets stay on? there are no threads on shoe strings.

The order page says you just twist them on

yea thats what i read too. i can twist a nut on a nail but that doesn't make it stay bc there are no threads. maybe its tapered and the aglet grabs ahold of it. anyways, okay somehow they screw on. i just know on yeezys you lose aglets and they screw on. wonder how long these last or if they are a better idea.

What Gooze said. But I had to wrap a little tape around the lacetips. They have a couple videos on their Instagram page that show you how to do this.
The aglets won't fit on the lace tips that come with these foams because the pink lace tips makes them a little too thick. I swapped laces with my Cactus foams that I hardly wear.

nah they'll know because you didnt open a ticket before the purchase
i always open a ebates ticket for the sites like half an hour before i know im going to be trying to make a purchase
it's become my online shopping ritual, saves me a bunch of $$$
