Tried Em On..... REAL TALK The Stiffest Shoe I Have Ever Put On My Feet
Got the corks today from 21mercer and as soon as i walked out of the store this asian dude walks up to me and starts trying to convince me to make a trade, after a few minutes of negotiating he made one i couldn't resist. Got a pair of RF high risk asics, a pair of Fingercroxx 580s, a pair of mita mojito new balances, AND a pair of '11 black cement 3s. All DS. The corks were super dope dont get me wrong, but my pair had already had some peeling occurring on the cork and i realized that after a couple wears they would likely be trashed. They're a shelf piece. Didn't win the golden box either. Had all intentions of keeping them but dude offered me like 1200 worth of some of my favorite shoes to come out this year plus some bc3s. I think it was worth it to get 4 dope shoes that i can rock rather than one that was just going to go into my collection and likely never get worn. To be honest the hype was way too out of control for them, dont get me wrong they are a DOPE sneaker especially in person with great detail, and super amazing leather on the tongue, but i like to WEAR my shoes not put them on a shelf, and this is a shoe that you just cant do that with unless you are comfortable with the fact that they'll crumble. Plus i can already see the re-sell value of these dropping once the novelty wears off. So all of you that are going crazy for a pair please dont drop a G on them, you will really regret it once a couple wears in all the cork starts peeling away. Just my 2 cents.
BTW this isn't the only nike shoe that has ever been made with a cork upper....They've had the option to do it for a Bespoke AF1 for a while now.
Please everybody to go this link it will be SUPER easy cop for me bwhahahahahhahahhahalink is correct boy check out the asg jimmy jazz link that memphis posted http://www.jimmyjazz.com/mens/footwear/nike-lebron-x-sneaker/583108500. This is how all jj links are formatted .
LOL!!!!!!for everyone who thinks thats the link, i wish u good luck lol
Way too bright for me, maybe if i saw them in person.Volts were the best release of the weekend...and I like the corks.
I hope it was just to prove a point because to be honest he will be guiding everybody in the wrong direction while im at checkoutthat link dude posted just to prove a point. read first then post my dude.
thats what im saying lmao, its the real link dont listein to hiPlease everybody to go this link it will be SUPER easy cop for me bwhahahahahhahahhaha
me and u broI hope it was just to prove a point because to be honest he will be guiding everybody in the wrong direction while im at checkout
I'm hoping for it to be routine maintenance , but even two hours after the link was posted the site is still down, I just feel like that's pretty unlikely due to that link.
500? thats too damn much. Maybe the space jams and 300, maybe
***** is u smokin them corks aint worth nothing space spams and $500 is pretty much $900 cash. the corks aint worth no more than retail or less. to even trade the space jams for them is dumb
$500 is Way too much on top of DS Jams fam.... I would say 3 at the most and I guess if u add the resell value of what DS Jams go for, it'll be the equivalent of like spending 850-9 for them Corks... Is it worth it to u?
I had lucked out day after release of the Crowns and was able to trade worn Jams and $100 for the Crowns DS and I had another pair of jams DS in the cut.... I wouldn't give up that much for the corks bro... That's damn near a rack
Yo goof ***, either one is acceptable itself, just add $100 to either one
Goof***? Um k
Thanks for your advice guys
No way I was going to trade the space jams
They're my grails and have sentimental value since I got them for a steal in college
I'll just wait out the months and hopefully the prices will drop
Thanks again
LOL really?
Even better, I'll drop a can of strawberry soda right by them. They will be to stunned to run after me! lol.
Just kidding around.I'm not trying to get shot guys! lol
I don't even think that, Galaxy Foams were $700-900 presale and they went for $2-4k on rd-week after.
Now they go for $1000-2000 depending on size.
Corks will be around $750-900 in the end, especially since they're a FRAGILE shoe.
I wonder how the cork like material will hold up after a while.....like will it begin to crack
Have you handled the shoe yet? Define fragile... Because it being fragile could ADD to the value. Like how fine China is...

Probably would only apply if a good percentage of the people who buy them wear them. If they get "beat" quickly, then that could up the price - not because of the fragility itself, but because it would influence the supply side of the equation. Fragility shouldn't be an issue considering I doubt most owners will wear t them.
...And, fine China isn't expensive BECAUSE it is fragile.
Wait, wait, wait...fine China? Really? That's a serious comparison? And how the hell is fragile ever a good thing when it comes to a pair of shoes, something you're meant to wear?Have you handled the shoe yet? Define fragile...
