Orange day at my sons school today.

The Sail on those joints looks amazing :pimp:
 
i know that force field or what ever stuff is od, but i decided to try them out

and i know most think it's corny but i'm happy with the results
i would size .5 up to use them; but already had my collection and didn't want different sizes
 
You guys think those Force Fields / Sneaker Shields would help with this wonky Cyber Monday toe? Left foot, the toe has kind of collapsed and I can feel it on my foot when I'm wearing them. I was thinking maybe the Shields would help keep it propper up for more room inside?

Sneaker shields will help but yea it will be more comfortable if your kicks are one size up.
 
Cheers boyz, yep sneaker shields, been rocking these joints big time. They got delivered the Monday following drop day and went straight to feet, absolutely love em.

yea i could tell. i have sneakershields in most of my jays so ive learned to tell if sum1 is using them. its the way they crease nicely at the top with the sneakershields and how the top of the toebox is a little raised up.

i love sneakershields. keeps creasing to a minimum and my joints looking fresh.
 
I hate creases, thankfully my ones don't crease too much, no matter how many times I wear them. But which ones are better sneaker shield or force field? Or any other?

i prefer sneakershields myself. more durable imo. they have the soft flexible ones and also the rigid ones for if u need to stomp somebody out 1 day haha

imo they would help. the sneakershield would hold ya toebox up so they no longer cave in like that. just install em correctly or ya gonna have toe pain due to sizing issues..... everyone just shoves em in. people dont realize u gotta take the insole out, so this allows u to shove those badboys all the way in tight, then put your insoles back.

the only thing would be that u might still see the crease lines in the leather of the toebox. but at least ya toeboxes wont be caved in anymore. theyd hold up solid.
 
Looks dope I need to start wearing my kicks. Instead of having them sit in a closet. I buy doubles of everything I wear and it’s starting to get Ridiculous And makes no sense anymore

i only get doubles of pairs i really really like. and even then i have racks upon racks of shoes. imagine if i got doubles of every shoe lol. i would need a 2nd house.
 
So sketched out buying on eBay though. I know you are "protected" but it just seems like extra hassle. I'm still looking for a pair of the 11 cap and gowns, actually bought a pair from the last 20% ebay coupon day a few months ago... and dude tried to pass of worn shoes as new. Then he tried responding back saying "Listing didn't say dead stock, which means they can be tried on". Soles had already started to yellow where they touched ground, lace "divots" in the tongue from being tied, dirt and hair in the treads, and I believe what was a booger on the suede.

Returned them real quick, since I compared with my DS pair (I have a 9.5 but need a 9) and it was night and day that they were worn.

Yea that’s wild smh. eBay has been good to me in the past. Really just looking for cyber Monday’s, since I can get actual pics. StockX sent me a pair covered in glitter :{
 
Sneakersields are the hard plastic that you have to cut, forcefields are softer and just insert without making any modifications.

I use forcefields on my 1’s to prevent the toebox caving in look

dont know about forcefields, but sneakershields has 2 versions. 1 soft plastic(the universal) that is super flexible and 1 version thats rigid hard plastic(the protector). i use a mixture of both depending on what kick it is. the soft flexible ones for all my ones, and the hard rigid ones for kicks like my 13s and 12s. toebox creasing looks tuuuurrible on those.

i never have to cut my sneakershields. i get the notched ones, aka the ones that have the hole/slot on the side for my pinkytoes.
