I know... next thing you know you are looking for vintage engineering boots on a website all in japanese and you begin to really rethink who you are.... its a deep whole you can fall down haha


This just triggered some horrible flashbacks from 2008-2011. Premium boots and Japanese selvedge had a ninja and his boys in an absolute chokehold back then.

The hunt for true selvedge denim was indeed a thing. That fad kind of flushed, which is surprising because who doesn't enjoy getting up from dinner to realize that you left an indigo dye ass print on whatever you had been sitting on, or slowly watching the your nailbeds turn baby blue.

1. Get really excited and park yourself in front of your computer or phone at least 30 minutes early.
2. Curse, throw things, break things.
3. Buy nothing.

At least with the SNKRS draws they are low effort. Hopefully they will let me take my L's quickly.

Thanks for the heads up. Thought these were released with all the other dunks on 2/2.

Nike kept telling me there was a problem with my payment so I guess that is an L.

That's fine, I would have just tried to flip these for some Low's anyways.

How do you know if you got an L? Inbox? I've received nothing yet so I guess that's good. (on the website, not the app)

L for me too. Had issues with payment, switched to Apple pay, tried again, and took the L.

I would log in and check under the "orders" tab. If you won you will have an order placed.

Ebay was the way for a bit but I know they were changing their fee structure, unsure if its changed yet or not. I have sold a few pairs on StockX and they take their lump of flesh from buyer and seller... the sneakermarket subreddit has been okay to me, usually value is a bit under StockX bid but you dont get hit with the fees.

Restocking the cool greys next month

I've seen speculation that there were really a lot of pairs of these like people originally thought but supply chain problems kept most out of the draws when they originally released.

The restock seems to lend some credibility to that.

What sucks is the same people will now have a chance to win again so its going to continue to limit those of us who legit want a pair

This is true for any drop where people only want for resale.

Sometimes SNKRS will not allow the same person to get a second pair. Depending on how they do it. If you purchased a pair and then they do a re-stock it keeps record of you having previously bought and won't let you get another pair.

If it wasn't for the supply chain issues as speculated on previously, there would be the same number of entries for a larger number of shoes. Now there is a potential for everyone, including previous winners, to enter a second time for what was supposed to be a one time drop.

Again, this only makes sense if these were supposed to all be released at the same time.

Ok awesome well then that is good news.

Worst case, if you really want them and don't win the 2nd time around, the resell value should be a lot more reasonable with more pairs on the market
