What's good with Nike Elite Basketbal Crew socks? (SOCKS FTW!)

Damn today was first day of school and I see this kid who looks like someone who's never held a basketball in his life with the USA elites on. I came up to ask him where he got em and for how much. He told me his "homie" hooked him up for a good price. I asked him how much he paid and he told me $75. For ONE pair.

hype kills

Who the hell buys socks for $75?! I'd sell all my pairs for that much each.

looks like the new elite socks coming out now are different design . . . no more "dots", just two-tone stripes going down the back

They were last year for a little. Come October I bet you won't find any on the shelves till this time next year. If you want them might be a good idea to grab a pair now before the rush.
 
^ I dont think all mine would fit on my bed....

ive had elites since they were marked on clearance way back when on ndc...pre-hype

you should've told him he got robbed pretty bad :lol: :tongue:
 
I'm currently wearing my USA Elites, and they are nice!

They are definitely thinner though. I prefer the original Elites in terms of comfort.

Richards (D_cks) had the Volt Vapor Socks but they're not up anymore. NDC has the Black/Volt Football 2 pack up in M I think. The All Volt ones that dropped from last year dropped earlier this year at random Foot Lockers. What size sock are you looking for?
 
Size Large I see them on ebay but I wont pay rape for socks NIke says both colors will restock, they just don't know when, I'll stop by Richards today
