44 since you sized down one from your regular size with the arenas I'm assuming.

SL 10h are all tough to get in due to the height of the shoe. sucks to have to really dayuuum there unlace them lol to get them on. But once on very comfortable. As for the price increase I seen this coming. Gotta get what I can and leave the game smh. They are only going to keep rising watch they all be around 700 or more next year this time. smh 
 
Problem with high end sneakers prices is that manufactures have realized that there is no price ceiling.. If someone is willing to pay $500 for a sneaker they would pay $800 for them and not even think twice.

Can't say I agree, I mean you see the outcry here when SLPs bumps the price up by $50?

There will always be people who will pay retail for shoes, clothes, etc... but there are definitely ceilings in most items.

Now there is a difference between brands though, like CLs that already start up close/over $1k so they can charge that much but when Arenas or SLPs tart out at $500 then they see a price increase, then people become more hesitant to buy. Trust me, they increase those to upwards $1k and they aren't going to be flying off the shelves. I'd even go out of a limb and that for $700-$800, they aren't going to move as quick and might end up on the sale rack (not including those in exotic leathers of course). Hell sometimes it makes you think twice when you buy something at retail and then it goes on sale later on like Guccis or Pradas and that is why those do not sell out.

True, thats why I stop buying CL.

I read this in an article in wsj. "according to Matt Powell, a sneaker-market analyst at SportsOneSource, a market-research company. The average price of the 300 million pairs of men's sneakers sold in the U.S. last year was $65, Mr. Powell said. But according to retailers, there is virtually no price resistance at the highest-end of the market."
