To each his own. That history stuff means nothing to me.

Don't care about Fragment at all, it's about the colorway to me.

THIS!

So what's left this year for 1s? The wheats and that's it?

Other related thread news, sold 11.5 royals for $242 on stockx a week ago.. was fine with it

i can't rationalize dropping a stack or better for a shoe, because resellers can just jack up the price depending on demand, hell $570 for my sbb still embarrasses me, i refuse to tell non sneaker enthusiasts how much i paid

Yeah I'm the same way Hell, even 160 is too much for a shoe (for most people). Highest I've ever paid was 400. Told myself never again
....unless it's something rare.

Can anyone be kind and help me LC a pair of Fragment 1's?

I posted in the "Price/Fake Check" forum: https://niketalk.com/threads/lc-air-jordan-1-fragment.665262/

I would appreciate it and def give out reps. Thanks in advance.

To each his or her own, but I'm with you. I shed a Glory tear every time I think of the two or three times I spent $500 on a pair. A whole $1000 would just hurt me too much, but I'd never knock anyone for doing otherwise.

If I can't get the for retail or a little more than I don't bother. Probably why I haven't bought a pair of Jordan's in a while lol.....I feel bad dropping $150+ on some shoes. Dropping that much money on a pair of shoes turns it more into a novelty item for me. I want to wear my shoes not display them randomly.

 

[GrizzlyAnimal]

don't sell them ds then...... llamf

what ?

 

[rbk93]

All boils down if you can afford it or not.

 

[bigj505]

what ?

People say that if you try a shoe on then they aren't deadstock anymore.

So a bunch of dudes have shoes that may or may not fit

Not really.
Not purchasing for a price definitely does not mean you can or cannot afford.

If I'm paying money for shoes best believe Ima use em for what they're intended for and that's to wear. Im a wearer not a collector though. Props to those who can just look at their shoes.

2 quick laughs

thank you

Well let me clarify, for me(RBK93), it all depends on if I can afford a shoe or not. My current threshold for a shoe is probably $250 and that's even pushing it for me.

All I'm saying the market is the market and the prices are what they are for a reason. I wouldn't pay $1,000 for a pair of Fragments because I'm not a fan of the CW and the hype behind it. But $1,000 for say a pair of Pigeon SBs(or however much they're worth) or $3-500 for a pair of DB 3s/DB 6s...I'll glady pay it as I like those shoes if I can afford as I like those CWs.

Right right.....

of course it's not a knock, because regardless of how some people feel it's a hobby, and there are way more expensive hobbies than shoes

 

[Ingenious Bastard]

Recent pickups. Black Toes came in today. New Loves, last month. (I had no intention of recreating the pack, just ironically happened that way )

 

[Air Champa]

I'm probably gonna have to drop $400 on Chicagos sometime next year. It's the last pair of 1s I really need to be complete. Sometimes resale is the only way. Ninety nine percent of the time I say screw resale, but there are rare exceptions.

 

[bashmilk]

^might as well wait another year and they will retro them B

My bad lmao
