** The Diadora Thread ** - Concepts "Rat Pack" N9000

Not much yet. But I suppose they will be released instore first which more or less means instore only unless you have very small or very large feet. ;)
 
Lurking on ig and twitter and it looks like hella more people are going after the sombra's than the sol's. Going to have to cop a pair of bdga's the night before as insurance incase I strike out this time around. Not trying to be empty handed on sat. 
 
How was the 24kts website doing on the Sol release? Relatively smooth? Pain in the ***?

Doing my practice runs right now and its a pain lol.

It honestly wasn't that bad. It could have been way worse, (like not dropping the shoes at all) but it was still crash city. If you kept on refreshing it would crash and then come back every other refresh, but the site started getting smoother after like 3 hrs of refreshing and that's when you knew they were getting ready to drop. Going on the site now will do nothing to prepare you for it. Make an account, make sure you have a direct link, and then hope for the best. 
 
I go to my paypal for releases, but it'll be dry this upcoming weekend. From your guys experience, will I be ok using paypal with a zero balance as long as the linked bank account has money? 

I just don't feel comfortable with the idea of punching in my card number when a stream of orders are being confirmed ahead of me...

Paypal is the only way you can pay for things on their website, so as long as you have multiple forms (paypal balance, paypal credit, bank account transfer, personal credit/debit card) of paying for things on your paypal account you will be fine.

Yea it's cool. I never have money in my paypal. But my debit card and credit cards are attached to it. Never had an issue
 
was pulling into my neighborhood just as the mailman was leaving. I knew they were coming today, but as i pulled into my driveway, there was nothing on my doorstep. Mailman doubled back and dropped these off

:D

white laces are definitely the way to go...just not sure if i want to stick with these white laces or get the regular kind. the material on these laces is funky and i know will easily come undone.

Honestly the white laces they provided almost made me yak. I feel like better lace options should have provided (without the dam store branding)
 
Really wish i could be complaining about paying 270 USD for them then instead of debating whether to drop 250 POUNDS now. Just be happy you have them guys.
 
Idk dude, you know how the wider release works on these collabs. I would try and lock down the online release as insurance and if you are successful on the wider release, just flip one of the pairs. I of course am often too broke myself to practice what I preach

thanks @1234fif  and @JamesBRustled  

repped both of y'all for the info.

i remember for the sol release I was up at 2 am on the west coast and nothin was poppin. decided to pass cause I really didn't want the shoe that bad anyways. 

sombra's are a different story however haha. 
 
This is definitely the most mature thread on niketalk. :lol  Let's enjoy it while it lasts...

Nothing gold can stay, ponyboy 


Hopefully it doesn't get too stupid, but with concepts, rf, packer, UBIQ (?), Bait (?) taking their cracks at the n9000 this thread will certainly become more like every other thread. I'm assuming every U.S. boutique with a Diadora account will have a pair out next year.
