The official Sneakerhead Thread*************

I might just be jumping in and talking out of turn, and admittedly I didn't read the back and forth between ya'll (pause) but what are you talking about fam? What mom and pop spot in the bx EVER sells kicks at or below retail? that doesn't happen bruh, especially if the sneaker has hype around it

That shit ain't happening NOWHERE. ESPECIALLY at a mom and pops store. I ain't even been to that store and I can say that shit.

by selling it for cheaper homie mean something like $250 as opposed to $290. Mom and pop spots in the BX are WELL versed in sneaker rape, They still have concords and breds ON DECK because they've been charging $350-$390 for them before they even came out and they aren't budging.

ANY sneaker head ANYWHERE, especially in NY, will tell you finding hyped up kicks for retail will have you like finding them for less is unheard of

Scored on the Phoenix Foams via NDC

Wish I had the same luck on the corks but today is a good day nonetheless.

I appreciate that info... matter of fact I should have referred back to the time I was in NY and common sense would tell me that Flight Club damn sho ain't in business for selling anything less than retail.

Congrats on that wedding...


Eastbay was a fucking joke, I actually hit that submit button before NDC (because I'm a gold member) and that shit said all shoes were added to carts already what fuckery.

 

[whackjobgrim]

[dtownsfinest]

Struck out on all sites.....it was NDC or Bust....on to the next release. My undefeated streak on NDC is over.

Yea everyone so far seems to be getting them off NDC. I wonder did FTL or FNL even have them shits at all.

Fam I wasn't talkin bout hyped kicks. For example.. when the uptempo 97 dropped everyone sold them for retail. There was a couple spots that sold them below. I copped mine on the concourse for 129. That spot sold their's out.

Also I wasn't talkin bout them Indian mom n pop spots. Everyone knows that they charge rape.

Finishline doesn't sell foams

 

[whackjobgrim]

Im so angry right now. Stayed up all night for these shits. I had it all planned out in my mind and everything. Was gonna save them for my Jamaica vacay this summer. AHHHHH! Bout to go impulse buy this Glock 30 I've been looking at....

Stupid internet. Stupid people. Stupid Nike...

 

[BDR]

NDC didn't give y'all no dap this morning huh

Y'all know what time it is already

Either pre order or purchase after release either way the rape is there

My bad fam, like I said I didn't follow the convo. As far as a general release goes, if the hype isn't crazy I usually just wait it out and cop later for a discount, the Penny V's weren't hyped too crazy and I caught those on sale in footlocker in the White Plains galleria

 

[SIDESHOW]

eh..

 

[J.A.]

 

[whackjobgrim]

I just got a call from my homie up at Footlocker. He said they've only had a few people come in for the Penny V's. I don't know, might go take a look at them up close, and see if they're worth copping...

 

[BDR]

Yo whack tell him hold a pair for you so u don't waste a trip going there

I think they're going to be an easy cop, they still have a full size run on footlocker.com

Seems like the only Penny V's people beasted over was the miami color way... these invisible cloaks seem to have some buzz though so we'll see if they sit

Edit: forget it, you can't check out. he better tell his man to hold em
