NIKE VANDAL APPRECIATION... ****

Possibly. I don't think these sold out everywhere.

at least NDC did sold out~ when I checked ebay, :nerd: cant believe that there are few asking for over 300+ BIN......REDIcuLIOUS!!!

I am from HK, these are selling in two spots (as of for now) one Nike Lab and Lane Crawford (High End department store). I was WOW when saw these on display~ nobody knows what VANDALs are here. only Js, and Huaraches are what 80% of people are wearing now. I still thinking to grab a pair or not. (since no hype here). Theres still plenty of retros coming this year........AM95 Neons OG are must for sure and Mowabb OG :smokin.
 
I didnt know about that release but last monday  I was watching terminator genisys,

and I was like wow they remade the clothing store scene, then I saw the vandals, and  I thought to mysef why nike dont release them, it's a classic, (terminator, and the goonies, I'm a movie buff)

so I press the pause button, googled the vandal, and bam, nike released them one month ago, face palm

I googled for a online store (ndc sold out) but fortunately I found a store in milan with my size, I was like truffle shuffle,

add to cart, check out, shipping, delivery and they have arrived today.  they re lokking good (despite the heel and sole)  , went TTS

SORRY guys for the story (I'm not usually that kind of guy)  I'm just enthusiast, anyway

now i just hope nike will release the nike bruin og for the 30th anniversary of back to the future...and i'm good

have a nice day

vandals so sick, suprise not a lot of hype on these shoes

Well vandals are for older sneaker heads~~ When Nike first debut the silver/blue/red cw thats sickest shoes ever made!! I am 36 was way too young to own a pair back in the 80s~ haha i dont think they made in kid sizes anyways....lol. However, I was lucky to study in UK and retro kicks is a huge thing there especially in the running shoes market. Anyway, thats out of topic. Back in 98 if my memory was right. I found the silver pair displayed in size?. Asked for my size..oops. sz10.5 was the smallest. Anyway, I still hoping I can fit into these 80s space age shoes!! Yes, they fit!!! 98 was a dunk and dunk SBs year if you remember~ everybody wear dunks. The vandals were like dunks of coz theres no air soles in it. Still a great shoes. Someone here mentioned that the vandals fits better then the force highs. I agreed. The ankle is softer and plush then the force his. I can secure my ankles with the straps in the vandals but in the force his. Wish Nike bringing back more colorways this round!!

Man @A6103, that is the BEST Vandal Collection ever! You just completely S****ED on my WHOLE collection.​
I feel the EXACT same on the AF1 Highs, there just WAY to bulky & heavy for me.​
Also, the midsole always hurt the H*** outta my feet.​
Overall IMHO, I've really never liked the shoe in general.​
Vandals ALL DAY 4 me, my absolute ALL-TIME favorite Nike shoe.​
I'll take some Nike Vandals over Air Jordan 1's ALL DAY.​
 ​
I know I promised to POST my collection awhile ago, then I came down with a real bad sinus/ear infection. I was sick as h*** for like 2 1/2 weeks, Although, last Monday I did manage to take pics of ALL my sneaker cops this year.​
My most recent cops are the five pairs of Vandals right in the front.​
 ​
 ​
 ​
As y'all can see, I copped eight pair of Vandals alone this year. I finally was able to get my hands on the 2002 Black/Metallic Silver colorway, by the grace of god. And, by my super Jordan/Triple Scorpio determination...

I managed to find a Japanese seller & bought the TWO size 12's that he owned ASAP! I was light way p***** though.

While I'm negotiating a deal with the seller, I get an e-mail from SC sayin' their finally bringin' 'em back.

Nonetheless, I got 2 pairs of the '02 & '15's. As I said before, they are my "GRAILS" & in my ALL TIME FAVORITE colorway. Man, If I could buy another pair of '15's for a reasonable price like $150-$200, I'd definitely would!!! & I'd do it ASAP! But the only sight I can find em is "well you know where", & in my size they want no less than $280. If I'd never lucked all the way up, I'd probably would cop, but anything pass $200 is a DEAL BREAKER 4 me. Anyways, let a brother know if Nike.com ever has a restock. Or, if anyone you know, is sellin' a size 12. I don't mean to be "GREEDY" but, they are my "Absolute GRAILS"!​
@sneakerp I PROMISE you that I'll post my Vandal collection sometime week. Most likely, Wednesday or Friday. Stay tuned, & INFINITE reps for/to anybody who loves Vandals over AF1's. They have, & always have been overrated IMHO.​

For the big/wide footers out there, what size are you with vandals? Specifically with the latest retro. For reference I am a 12.5 for air tech challenge II, 12 for Dunk SB, and a 12 for air force I. l am bummed I slept on these (literally, my phone alarm didn't go off). Can't find a store so it looks like resale will have to do.

I would say get a size 12 @Red Mendelssohn. I wear a size 12, & there a little tight in arch & the toe box area. But, I'm sure an Equate shoe insert from Wal-Mart will fix it. I've only tried my pair on twice, so I might just need to break 'em in & they'll fit perfectly.

Just got two pairs of the black & silver Vandal 2015 (Terminator) rerelease.

I have to say the sizing Nike uses is completely wrong. Using their sizing method (heel against wall, measure equal weight and in the afternoon, etc.)

I get exactly 10.7 inches (27.2 cm) foot size.

According to Nike's own sizing chart at:

http://www.nike.com/nl/en_gb/sfg/mens-shoe-sizing-chart

That would mean a shoe size of:

US size 10.5

EU size 44.5

Official shoe size: 11.22 inches

That sounded way off so I got two pairs of 2015 Vandals:

Sizes:

US size 9 (EU 42.5)

US size 10 (EU 44)

(I wanted a size 9.5 but it was sold out).

So one shoe I got was US 0.5 smaller than what Nike advised, the other shoe was 1.5 sizes smaller(!) than Nike advised!!!!

GUESS WHAT?

The shoe that is officially (according to Nike's sizing chart) US 0.5 sizes too small for me,..... is still too big!!!

Literally my foot moves and slides inside the shoe and it would be very uncomfortable to run with.

The shoe that is (officially according to Nike) US 1.5 sizes too small for me fits near enough perfectly. To my mind it may be a size US 0.25 too small, but it's comfortable enough to wear all day. It will probably loosen up by more than 0.25, I just hope it won't get too loose.

So moral of the story:

My foot size (measured EXACTLY like Nike advises at)

http://www.nike.com/nl/en_gb/sfg/mens-shoe-sizing-chart

10.7 inches (27.2 cm), Nike calls for a size US 10.5 (EU 44.5) but what fits perfectly is a size US 9.5 or 9 (EU 42.5 or 43).

Crazy, I don't know about other models as I usually don't wear Nike, but TTS these Vandals are atleast 1 size too big (if not more) so you need to get smaller.

So I'm left with a brand new pair in size 10, probably goin on Ebay.

Only if I had a second pair for him to do that on... Otherwise, no dice.
Only If I had three pairs @unseen, I already have two...

I need at least two pairs DS at all times when it comes to these...

Like I said before, this shoe is my Nike Grail...

Here is a pic of the OG Green/Yellow/White colorway...

This colorway, Hell ALL OG colorways need to be retro'd at this Instant!!!
