I already explained this.
There are certain clear stickers that they make specifically for this. It's stronger than tape.
if you guys really want to preserve that nike air just take out the original insoles and put some different ones in.
I explained this as well,
The idea of preserving it is so you can see it as you put the shoe on. It's just a nice thing to look at while you are lacing up your shoes.

"Corporate Finance" is a broad term, each company obviously has a different culture. I'm a finance manager for a semiconductor comp with over $3 billion in annual revenue. Can I wear Jordan's to work? Sure I can. And I could care less what my colleagues within my specific finance group think. Now, if an account manager from one of our key account customers flies in from Asia sets up an on site visit to negotiate terms on a new business proposal, I'm not going to step into that meeting in shoes with patent leather or elephant print. Now, keep in mind, this is the Silicon Valley, where CEO's of multi billion dollar companies wear levi's jeans, black long sleeve shirts and new balances (think steve jobs), in other words this is NOT Wall Street, but still, I spend maybe 20% of my time in key meetings with key accounts, I'm not going to be walking around in elephant print shoes. Now the rest of the time? I could care less, but the environment and circumstances in my work place changes day by day. At the end of the day, I could get away with wearing royal 1's to a meeting, like i said before, some of the most powerful guys in the silicon valley wear new balances and jeans (i'm generalizing) to work, so I can get away with those, but patent leather and elephant print? nope. Again, I'm sharing MY EXPERIENCE in my workplace, with my responsibilities, which are different than yours.

couldn't you keep a back up pair in a desk drawer or under you desk for those "surprise" visits and rock whatever you want everyday without any worries? just keep a pair of black chucks on stand by.

I love the hate for my post.
I hope the people that really want these get them.
Just sick of the restocks. A lot of people pick up from the restocks and they don't even want the shoe. They just want it for trade bait or resell purposes.
If you can't live without these shoes you either get them on release day for retail or you pay resell.
There is no such thing as second place. Either you're first or you're nothing. Just because of all these noobs they have to produce more. (I still consider my self very new to the sneaker culture.)

Well this just makes me laugh even more. So you have a first-level position at a company that has an extremely relaxed dress code and an annual revenue 33% less than my employer, and that somehow justifies you being a jerk towards NT members of a certain age with different tastes? I was and am addressing your original post, before editing, and you came off thinking you were too good for those corny shoes because of your age and job posted above (in silicon valley, in case anyone missed that in his post)?
Cheers to your future success in silicon valley and good luck to all NTers in their quest for Royal 1's! I'd also like to know what insoles you put in your pair, seandon? I've never owned AJ18's so I wouldn't recognize the insole if they're from those. The color matches perfectly though.

Bingo, I have an old nds pair that was collecting dust in my garage as it's a size too big. Always wanted to slip the carbon fiber comfort plate into a pair of j's and they match perfectly with these.

lol at me being a jerk? too good for my corny shoes? lol. i love my "corny" elephant print and patent leather shoes, that will never change. my whole point was it doesn't mesh well during some circumstances at work and it was a part of getting older and adjusting to work culture. relax buddy, its not that serious.Well this just makes me laugh even more.

Was it so serious that you had to write a little block of text about it letting us know you work in the Silicon Valley? Just move on please. No need to get off topic telling how your workplace environment is. Do you guys not remember how many past threads got locked up?
I also don't get why people drop subtle hints about releases/restocks. Looking for e-props or what? Either you give em the full info or just shut the f up about it and don't say s*** at all. Look up OS Life if you want to know about that website dropping these at 11am eastern. BTW, it's gonna be 269.99 + shipping. so its far from retail.
If you really wanted a pair by now, you would have obtained it some how.
