Lol. Same reason. October and November were horrible. Spent so much on shoes and other crap. Now I'm catching up.

Grids & Shadows aren't too bad.

I know some folks get upset when people share info but I really don't care. So here it is: http://www.thedropdate.com/heads-up/saucony-x-pys-shadow-6000-blue-apple-24-11-12.html

Hope it helps someone get a pair. I'll be trying to grab mine since I missed out last time.

 

[verysteri otypical]

^not at all, thats what this community should be about. ive already got mine but repped anyways..

 

[crh1979]

So yeah I totally forgot about the overseas release and missed out on my size again. LOL, guess I will find them eventually.

 

[macc e-money]

Is $150 a good price on the blue apples?

Is $150 a good price on the blue apples?

No. These don't appear to be a reseller's shoe as I've seen most sit at that price. I'd say $115 to $125...

 

[macc e-money]

Appreciate that insight as I was slippin. Found a pair locally for $95.

 

[sniper]

^No worries and nice steal...

Man, As i scroll through now and remember wanting them but striking out..... Im on the look again for those sneaker freaker Bushwhackers. They look so clean, and after watching those review videos and wearing my Blue Apples for the first time I wouldnt mind walking on clouds in another style/colorway.

 

[solenuff1212]

featurelv has blue apples in a few sizes for $88, packers shoes X grid 9000 (olive/orange) in a few sizes for $55 (call to order)

also, packershoes has 40% off of most of their stock. I picked up those all blue bodega shadow 5000s and packer shoes olive grids for $135 shipped

 

[crh1979]

Sent an e-mail, maybe they will have my size. Thanks for the info.

check out the bodega x saucony elite g9 series...all 3 of them utilize the grid 9000 sole/outsoles...but i only have the g9 shadow 5 (for now)...

and while nothing (and when i say i mean NOTHING...i mean not ANY other shoe that i've ever owned/worn) compares to the ridiculous uber comfort of my bushwhackers...just having grid 9000 sole/outsoles on any saucony shoe will pretty much give you that "walkin' on clouds" feelin'...

 

[azrael]

the bait x saucony collabs are up on bodega now as well...

http://shop.bdgastore.com/collections/saucony

like i said before...these are totally worth the price, and factoring in that they're collabs and not gr's...don't sleep 'em...

 

[crh1979]

Repped. Snagged my size and for what I consider a great price. Thank you so much.

Any good releases comin out soon? GR or Collabs?

 

[thorrocksjs]

Still cant find nothing

 

[crh1979]

Yeah, super slow on the Saucony front.

 

[solenuff1212]

Not my cup of tea but the play cloths x saucony "Precious Metals" pack should be releasing soon...

 

[ez money]

Yeah those metals are butt imo. pretty ugly.....

few good 6000's on clearance on sns, and some blue apples sz 13 for retail on bodega.

 

[azrael]

thoughts?

 

[crh1979]

2, 4, 1, then 3. That's my order on those. I'm liking what I'm seeing.

 

[azrael]

my personal order is 2, 1, then 4.

3's not in my order at all, because i don't know if i can ever bring myself to rockin' any sort of leopard print.

what i got against leopards you ask? i don't know...since i apparently don't have any qualms with elephants...haha...

and part of me wishes they that would consider including those "rope-type" laces that in the background of these images (ala ronnie fieg)...haha...
