I leather lotion all my ones regardless- just to keep em nice and buttery. we all know leather will dry up eventually which is
what I'm trying to delay.

So is it safe to say the box and tissue is the sole cause of glittering?

I can’t understand how, in 2018, people still believe this when it has been disproven time and time again.

if the shoes are ds, and the glitter wipes off, why sell them, unless you didn't replace them and just kept the profit

Replaced the breds with Aleali's at the time (aka a glitterproof 1).

I also owned a couple pairs of breds so I figured it was best to get rid of my most glitter afflicted pair.

All I'm really getting at is that there is a very profitable solution for dudes who have DS pairs of Breds and are 100% turned off by the glitter/ mold.

Hmmm... graphic fails to mention the gambling addiction that may have led to his self-imposed 18-month exile from the league :nerd:

Nor do most care about the shoes, other than the profit involved.

Cardboard absorbs moisture, I've had old shoeboxes (without shoes in them) (particularly, my old DWades box from '06) develop thick crystallization--i.e., layers and layers of 'glitter'. If you don't keep your shoes in the shoe box then you shouldn't develop 'glitter'. Also, if you have a walk-in closet attached to your bathroom/shower (popular layout in apartments) then don't keep your shoes in that closet or keep them in that closet and don't take hot showers. Spend some money on drop-fronts, a suitable shelf, or other shoe storage unit. And if you've developed glitter, wipe the area down with white vinegar or rubbing alcohol.

Literally everything you listed has been debunked.

We've pretty much narrowed it down to the leather or the finish on top of the paint.

gottamb how is your pair leaps and bounds better than mine?! crazy.
the black leather used on your pair is money. mine is the regular ones.
not mad at my pair, just jelly.

I was fortunate enough to get a few pairs and only one pair had crazy black leather like that. The rest had more smooth black leather. Just luck i suppose.

kobeoverbron · Apr 25, 2018

mad lucky. looks really good man. kinda like the 2009 buttery drop.

No it’s not. We’ve been through this several times. It has nothing to do with how they are stored.
You can wipe them off often or get rid of them. That’s all you can do. It’s nikes choice of paint or sealer on the black parts of the shoe.
Let’s stop going around and round on this, we’ve had a lot of conversation about it.

Edit - Lol, I missed the joke,

stikillller · Apr 25, 2018

i've looked but can't find the official thread for the kawhi 1's, anyone?

thegamemodo9 · Apr 25, 2018

Any FTL codes? Need one for the Kawhi's.

wolfman928 · Apr 25, 2018

I really need Foot Locker to switch my store to app reserves for the Kawhi AJ1, this fcfs makes no sense, why go backwards from the app, there’s already gonna be people all in there for the Cool Grey lows ugh! :smh:
