I have a bunch of pairs of SBs. I posted some pics earlier itt but I wouldn't call myself a collector as I only have newer pairs that I wear. I would like to pickup some of the classics but it's ridiculous how much they are going for now.

Can you post a pic of those on feet + whatever shirt/sweater you're wearing as well. I'm not sure what I would wear with shoes like that (I'm sure you probably feel the same way with the shoes I posted ITT)

Anyone get their bred 11s yet? I cannot believe how much more in demand there are for these over the bred 4's. I figured the turnout would be similar. I have been scouring all the sneaker sites trying to find a pair but have been out of luck and am really hoping people don't pick up their raffled pairs so I can get a couple at 6 pm when the mall shoe stores release them.

Apparently NDC is completely sold out, probably b/c they did a 2min per customer.

I'm with you though, I like the bred 4's WAY more than the 11's. I'm not too worried about missing out on these.

My brother just bought some reissue Jordan 11s and he has a ton of Jordan's from back in the day when he started collecting.

I wanna buy a few pairs of kicks I remember from my H.S. days and whatnot since I'm not jealous of his fine collection.

What's a good source to find some Air Penny 2's and Foamposite 1 and 2 in the original royal blue or white/black color.

Trying to buy from somewhere other than ebay.

I'm in LA fwiw. Thanks

Np

Also, here's a list of legit websites to shop for shoes. They're going to be more expensive than the above, but they're more likely to have what you're looking for.

I love sneakers, but at 29 years old I just cannot find times where they are appropriate to wear. I am in the process of selling my last couple of pairs of Jordans (2001 black/cement III and 2007 black/silver V's both in 9.5) and I have no idea what to do with my Dunks/Air max 95's/air max 1's. I am content to wear Vans, pumas, and chukkas now. I guess I'm old.

Age doesn't have nothing to do with it. I'm 33 and I still wear kicks when I'm going out. Unless it's ****ty out then I'm wearing a pair of workboots. Although I think last spring and summer I wore my Reef Fanning sandals everywhere.

Was lucky enough to cop these from Eastbay a couple days ago. They are the Air Jordan 9 "Calvin Bailey" model. I've been looking for some good shoes to play ball in and noticed the 9's were super light when I peeped them at Champs.

Picked up '03 Bugs Bunny 8's today for $80. The asking price was $60 but there were like 4 people that already hit up the seller for an offer, so my only chance was to bump up the price a little higher. Obv they're used, but still in really good condition. I just gotta get em restored and they'll be fine.

+ I found a pair of DS Fire Red 5's for $230...just gotta save up the money then BAM. Someone bought the Doernbecher 1's from FCLA already...oh wellz.

I'm curious to hear the sneakerheads' thoughts on Common Projects, etc.?

I'm no sneakerhead, but I love me some CP's, especially because they look good with a patina, and don't need to be minty fresh to look good.

As I mentioned to the dude that posted a pic of Raf Simons, I would need to see a pic of em on feet for me to give a better opinion on them. But even then, there's still a lot of varying taste among sneakerheads.

I feel like most sneakerheads transition to shoes like that over time though...as if it's some maturity level that is going to reach them at one point or another like Galen Hall (see post #90). Hopefully I keep hanging around people that call for me to wear sneakers instead of shoes that are like CP's, cuz if I had to stop wearing my sneakers all together that would suck lol

One thing that bothers me about the Fire Red 5's...

Thanks for that...yeah I was like wtf is going on lol. I found a DS pair on sole collector for $230, but now I have some incentive to wait it out.

These are coming out on February 23...people are saying it's for $305 retail and it's limited edition. I think these can easily resell for $1k
