fire for the black shoe gang




Those are so incredibly close to the breds. Once I take my L, I'll definitely be going to the secondary market for those.

They are just bilking me out of money at this point. I legitimately have no business buying any more maroon shoes. They can't all be for gameday, damnit!

(as someone pointed out in premium) 1876 and 1939 on the upper are nice touches

They are nice but there's no way I'm paying 200 for them.

My first thought as well and there is a good chance these can be had for less than that in the near future.

I'm gonna wait for next year's edition to come out when they'll have "2022" on it as well.

I don't, I just saw 1876 on the right pinky upper. There was another comment about 1939 on the other side but no pics. Commenter also used wink emoji so maybe just in gest...

So i took advantage of the dipping market to pick up a pair of shoes i've wanted for a while. I went with GOAT, which is my standard practice over StockX these days.

After order, the shoes were shipped to GOAT for verification. I got a notice saying that something about my order required my attention. I go to my email, and they have sent me photos and a notes saying that there was a "craftsmanship" problem. They then advise that the seller offered me a slight discount ($16 off of $319) that I can accept, or I can ask for a replacement.

I don't think GOAT will allow shoes to be sold if there is a suspicion that they are fake. Rather, I think GOAT just sends them back. I also don't think they will allow worn shoes to be sold as DS without reclassifying. I also don't think this was a box issue because they sent me photos of the shoes themselves. I've had StockX contact me about a box being torn, but it was NBD to me because I wear all mine.

Looking at the photos, it straight up looked like two different shoes of the same make. Consequently, I asked GOAT to find a replacement. They did (for $2 cheaper than the original purchase price), and those are being sent to GOAT for authentication.

Morale of the story, I was impressed. It's not that the shoes were fake or that the box was jacked. Someone at GOAT looked at the shoes and said "these aren't good enough" and flagged them. Pretty cool.

All of that and didn't even tell us what you ordered?

Ha! I thought I put it in the first part. AMM AJ 1s.

For funsies, here's the pic that resulted in me asking for a replacement instead of taking the discount.

Those look more grey in that pic versus off white. I've been eyeing those lately as well. Been about $100 price drop over the last several months in my size
MW03

Yeah that's why I bit. Been watching since they dropped. Couldn't make my peace with $500, but definitely could at $300. I think these are second only to the union storm blues in my personal fav AJ1s.

Got the Penny 1's, opened the box, the 14yo in me got a huge b0ner, then I did some soul searching and realized current me likely would never wear them. Ended up flipping them on StockX for +40% return.

Same. I have the 2006 ones and they sit on my bookcase shelf. Couldn't bring myself to ever wear them even back then, but they're trophies from my youth so I won't ever get rid of them. The air bubbles look like they're filled with Galveston water now, but whatevs.

The world of sneakers seems to have just run into a massive wall in terms of "hyped releases" ; not many J's or dunks or anything getting put out nearly as often. Seeing a lot of stuff get pushed back to the end of August. Not sure if its shipping delay related or what.

On another note, every time I see a new colorway of these "split" Jordans I think they either lost their mind or ran out of ideas

Edit to add: One positive I am seeing consistently is folks able to grab pairs on secondary market below retail, at retail, or just slightly above. We were due for market correction and it is definitely here.

Those are all horrendous and they look like bowling shoes. I can't imagine there will be much of a secondary market for those

First thing I thought, they look legit comfortable which is paramount for me.

I'm sure it's been posted here already, but very much reminds me of this:
