2024 NIKE SB DUNK THREAD_____GRs and QSs added

[maladeen]

i never used anything but water before i started using licoln easy cleaner, all u need is lincoln easy cleaner, a tooth brush and any size towel

went through lincoln easy cleaner and it works nothing special but gets the job done. Currently using air legends cleaner and it works really well just like lincoln it just smells better haha

My favorite blue box is probably still Plum Highs and Thai Temples.... Blue box era had ALOT of misses (including that whole skinny tongue phase)

the two skinny tongue i know of are pretty nice.  koston low and high life

I say blue box dunks are garbage simply from a fit and quality perspective.

I liked a couple of the designs, but I didn't buy a single dunk during that era just because they felt so cheap

I did buy my favorite pair of janoski's ever tho

dark army corduroy/suede

my GF actually bought them for me for valentines days <33

I disagree. Quality on the BITUSAs is rather nice and they're comfortable.

Today. Excuse the socks I overslept this morning and couldn't find anything else

Im new to this sb forum and in shock to see how many people are active in it. Sb's really did go downhill ever since 2010/2011 when they started using skinny tounges. Its funny how shortly after making them they switched right back to fat tongues. Sb's will never be the same after the whole remaster thing with the new sole/sock liner design and "dunk low/high pro" on the tongue. Just my opinion

the blue box venoms were one of the most comfortable dunks ever imo

not sure what kind of stains ur cleaning but lincoln has cleaned everything for me so i will stick with that, with patent leather/plasticy-like matierals i just use the towel and skip the tooth brush.

no i mean it has worked for me the smell was a little weird from it. Other than that it was a great product i just ran out and the air legends cleaner was something i wanted to try next. Smells better to me but both work equally well.

Damn sharkin you being kinda hard on the blue box era. What about quality of Iron lows, Plum highs, Red Devils? You can't tell me all of those were bad fitting and quality my dude.

I will vouch for air legends. Works well and smells good.
As for 2014 the only release that really stands out to me are the aj1 sb collab.
The tiffs were pure trash. I must be missing one or two (somps are nice), but I think 13 was better as a whole-civs, mia, mcrad, firecrackers, UCS, etc etc.
But of course, the early eras are miles ahead.

 

[ats kicks]

mags, de la lows, black/red pair, those all-white w/ gumsole & maybe the all blue lows





quick question...are these the same pair? if they are they've gone through some changes since the sample stage. (both ugly imo)

To answer your question, Yes the AJ Grape 8 and Flash High ARE two different sneaks.
The Flash High has the same "look" as the Brooklyn Project's Paparrazi Dunk from last year.
The "stars" are 3M and will light up when a light shines on them, and has an Icey Translucent Gray Bottom.
These should be out in October, based off of the Nike Ordering Catalog.

Blue box era was not junk, that statement is so false

Gino 3's and Black/White Premium lows were money

and if you ever dare say these are junk again

Not the same pair

 

[sharkin]

Lol you guys got me thinking.

I was a broke college student during the blue box era

Did I project my own financial insecurity onto the shoes to make them an easier pass?

 

[Otaku]

 

Are the grey ones (2nd column from the right 2nd down) these?
Looking forward to the BTTFs and the off white/gum bottoms and that's it. 

 

[sharkin]

@StillIn729   idk about how those fit, but the shape of the toe looks tragic

 

[sharkin]

btw, these are a premium release, so i'm hopeful enough on the materials

tragic? sometimes I think you just like to make asinine statements to make asinine statements

 

[sharkin]

It just looks very -- generic non-sb dunk looking -- like the viotechs that re-released a couple yrs back

I wouldn't go as far to call them the "angle irons", but the toe just squares off, doesn't look comfortable

then again, the "sharkins" have the same sort of shape...
