Yeah I'm juiced fellas. Theyre some worn sz 13 Halloween Jewel lows in a 13. Midsole is still bright white and sole looks good as well. Got em for 76+shipping.

I paid a lot more than that for mine. Very good used shape. They're one of my favorite jewels, so I had to get 'em. The money may hurt for a bit, but when you miss out, the longing could last forever.Originally Posted by DeNs415

But I think a pair of AM95s that I bought from overseas is stuck in customs.Hate having to deal with that nonsense.
From my experience it's sometimes best just to put no value on it. I won a pair of the Xmas Gift bespokes (would have kept them had they not been two sizes bigger, I used the shoe trees for my beater Glaciers) but sending them to the US with all the accessories plus full value insurance meant too much hassle for both. I ended up saying what they really were - gift shoes with no commercial value.
As for the charges, paying 20% of the listing to customs price PLUS international shipping...

I don't know. I usually leave the discretion to the seller. If they want to tell the truth, I'm not going to ask them to lie on a legal document for my sake. If they want to fill it out in the way that they think will arouse the least suspicion, then w/e. I normally don't ask at all and assume they have more experience than I do when it comes to these things.

Yeah - the kids hate that. Maybe that's why Diabolic, Louis Logic & Jay Love (Odd Couple), Eddie Brock, Block McCloud, etc. can't get any recognition, while dudes subsidize no-talent hacks like Rick Ross.Originally Posted by illphillip

This thread is a safe place, right? Unlike the official Kanye slurping thread, I can link to/talk about actual adult level subject matter without being shouted down for making people read multiple sentences and polysyllabic words?Sorry, NT is the best and also the worst!
This just got me thinking about the whole sneaker game, and how 90+% of the "sneakerheads" in this day and age are like the people in that Yeezy thread. It really makes me sad to see, and how Nike now markets products to people like them because they are the new nike consumer. Not to sound arrogant, but it does makes me like non-hyped stuff like air maxes and air forces more, just to be separated from those fools. And although I may disagree with a lot of you on sneaker subjects, just in terms of real life this is one of the few places left (along with maybe the PE thread) on NT (and really anywhere online) with intelligent people you could actually have a conversation with.
But anyways, although I don't post many pics, I figured I'd share a few recent pickups/wears (sorry if they aren't old enough for you, Bippy)...
Too ashamed of the Cavs to wear these
Mayor PEs
My city. %@+# LeBron though
The details on this shoe is insane. One of my favorite unreleased air forces
My bespokes. Inspired by Batman from older movies/comics. (forgot to take pics before I wore them)
Word to Clark Kent. Better than the 112 forces imo.
My favorite air force 1 of all time. Need a second pair BAD (DS size 10-10.5)
