I got an immediate L via email. My credit card also blocked a charge from them so idk if it was that that had caused the L

Dude told me only had a few left from one full size run they had. I'm sure they are sold out now though.

no idea must have put all pairs online. I’m sure concepts had about the same as they are 2 of the bigger NB accounts out there.

still salty about missing concepts, had I hit there I wouldn’t have had to have gone resell in the first place. that said the surprise drop was actually kind of fair

I don’t think it was a surprise drop, they mess up dates pretty frequently but I was glad to have grabbed them a week early so I didn’t need to stress yesterday.
I was upstate with poor cell service, so it would have been a real challenge. Plus I was skeet shooting for the first time and it was so much fun I only really looked at my phone to take pictures.

Was able to swap to my size with a reseller who didn’t even know about these. He was in the same line but was going for the Yeezys until the cashier told him that these were “hyped and limited.” Nice guy tho, and he came to my area so I didn’t have to drive.

Missed out on all opportunities. Don't even wanna check ebay or stockxx now.......may check again in a month or so to see if the price gets closer to the already high retail

Haven’t seen these before...Very similar to a pair that released around 2011-2012...That pair had suede in place of the leather on this pair though...

Around May 2012.

Just looked at your posted pics more closely and they do look like leather. All the 1300DB I have seen have nubuck front and mid panels with a suede heal. My guess is the owner used some kind of heavy protectant or something on the nubuck portion which gave them this look. Or possible mistake, one off with leather? Asking the seller would give the best answer.
maybe they used something like this on the nubuck? https://www.valmour.com/advices/converting-nubuck-into-smooth-leather.html
