They finally shipped lol

And i bought some big hurts on ebay but dude oversold my 11.5 so i had to settle for a 12

Hope its not too big

Not my week
 
These are looking really clean. I saw someone mention there was GR that looked very similar to these. Anyone know what they are?

^They're another Ventilator collab with a Japanese retailer, Beauty and Youth. Supposed to release worldwide, most likely like every other collab effort at sneaker boutiques.

I meant the GR's... Someone mentioned there was a colorway that was almost the same colorway as the Beauty and Youths. Just trying to find out if I can pick up a pair of the GR's.
 
I just talked with extra butter's lead designer for about a half an hour.  He showed me a pic with the drawings of the other ventilator collars- I didn't see concepts on the list (strangely, and unfortunately because I think them foot patrol and kith are 1,2, and 3 in that order) but I think foot patrol got one- and they're always pretty damn good.  He had seen a lot of the collabs.  All of them will be released internationally.  I believe packer has one too, always a coin flip with them and I know I saw Bodega and Burn Rubber (which are occasionally good).  A lot of them had white uppers, most went a basic route.  

Extra Butters collab was by far the craziest looking.  

He also said that there's a Kendrick Lamar ventilator that is by far the best of all of them (and no, not the day-glo), which he thinks will be a November or Holiday release.  He said it is absolute fire, and the best one he'd seen, including his own which he would put in second place.  

It won't be the Yeezy, but I think it will be a bigger shoe than any of the other rapper collabs.

I think the ventilator is poised to become the next Asics GL3 or New Balance 997.  It's much more accessible than the pump fury, and actually is just as comfortable as any runner I've had.

Sounds promising! I always look forward to PackerShoes, BDGA, & Burn Rubbers Collabs. Can't wait to see.

Kendricks ventilator tho?! :nerd:
 
Maybe beauty and youth came up with the best marketing plan ever- copy a GR and throw it on hypebeast and complex.  Best marketing plan since energizer and duracell being sold by the same parent company.
 
These came in, great comfort and nice materials. Want to get the red ones on discount but since they seem to be limited it might be hard.btw the vintage tint is barely noticable.
BTW, I see that DOA blasphemy was released too:

The Uniited Arrows Vents are supposed to be a womens' release, let's hope we get these in men's sizes as well. Really cleanly executed,  it's a big difference from the Limited Edition version which is just super loud. 

Rocking the Kilates today as well, comfort is indeed top notch. Terry cloth lining is nice and plush; and while the nylon toebox may look a little cheap it also moves with the foot well, it's not stiff like say, 3M.

Pretty sure that Concepts is no longer interested in being a part of the Certified Network in regards to collars because apparently they were very UNhappy with how their Pump 25 collab turned out. Too many quality issues for them, I heard they didn't even carry it in store. I have a flawless pair so I'm good, but that was the report. Pretty sure Extra Butter took their place with the Ventilator collab.
 
Here's my pair of the Big Hurts. Its buy one get one half off at my outlet. Both colors would be 90 dollars.
