word i used to be like that back in the day. but now, **** it. i'm handling business so whatever money i got left over i can blow it on whatever. life's too short for the bad trip that is buyer's remorse. unless of course i didn't enjoy sneakers. but i do for whatever reason so no need to feel some type of way about it, imho

space on the other hand. i regret taking up all the damn space in the crib that i do with sneakers. that's usually my motivation to sell a few pairs...
but in terms of money and time though, **** it i spent both how i wanted to spend em

My thoughts: this tumbled leather is stuff, would've been infinitely better if the leather that was used on the moto helmet joints was used on these. The images on the outsoles are a cool touch but pretty much indiscernible through the translucent outsole. The nubuck (the grey part, I'm calling it nubuck for lack of a better word) is FINE. I'm talking about fine in the sense of a fine grain sandpaper, it's very very soft, almost to the point where it feels rubbery, but not quite...it's hard to explain. The best subtle detail on these to me is the metallic silver Nike branding on the tongue tag.
Thinking about throwing red laces in them, is that tacky?

My best friend is a cabinet builder/woodworker
Last year we redid my closet to display a ton of shoes (instead of them being stacked in boxes
He has done closet remodels before so all I had to do was design it and install it... we used his tools/shop to build it
He's very good at what he does and we have been coming up with different kinds of storage for shoes to hopefully display in his booth at the event (I paid for the booth hoping that he would get a job or two out of it.... plus I'll have a place to sit)

In the parlance of hip hop ...my bad. Your disdain for the shoe is derived from the horrible neutral palette based in whites and creams which sullies the very nature of the SB line which derives its uniqueness among the many Nike brands by being intrinsically unique in its colorway choices.

Pbs are TTS.
It's always a pain in the a** deciding which shoes to pack for vacation.

Thanks for the review. They looked much better in the stock photos. I'm glad I passed but the Nike Tongue Tag is my favorite part of the shoe as well!

to me it seems like the leather on the grays is softer than the blacks
could just be my pairs though
Waiting for my other local to get theirs so I can compare..... they are pissed theirs have not arrived yet!

Isn't that how the stock laces with Salt Stains came? Or did the red laces have black tips? I traded my pair, don't exactly remember.

Unfortunately neither of the above are true :/. Red tips on red laces or black tips on black laces.

Thanks for the review, the grey rubber material sounds like the same stuff on the Barron Jordan 1s if anyone in here has both the atlas and Barron in hand and would like to check, it would be appreciated. quote name="rapcoz2134" url="/t/303260/2015-nike-sb-dunk-thread-grs-and-qss-added/145530#post_23726037"]

I guess some peoples version of worn for a "short period" is wearing the days everyday for a year straight, while others define it as 10 minutes to get their IG photo shoot done
