It's crazy how one thing can make you go from "eh I gotta pick these up" to "IF THOSE JOINTS DROPPED THOUGH"....

Black tongue woulda been all over that... White tongue.. Eh I'll pick em up.

i still like em but black tongue makes em pop. white tongue is so damn ugly :lol:
 
I think i dun goofed on so many releases :lol:

talked it up with a dude in store yesterday and told me locally people barely sign up for raffles around here :smh:

but hes in a new store and they dont got retros yet. im thinking im gonna cop them chicago 1's easily around here and hopefully at his store.
Good luck with that lol

hey man, thats what he told me the local store where i used to shop people rarely sign up for any raffles. who knows. i never purchased in store so im gonna try regardless
 
Shadows were such as easy cop. All the Beasts were after the toro 4s. I just went to a local mum and pop store and I think I was the only person in the line to buy just the shadows on the release day :nthat:

OG Jordan 1 Shadows > Retro + Jordan 4 toro

Yes, I remember that day, plenty of shadows could be had for sub 200. :smokin

That was when I was first getting into sneakers really...I didn't even know about the shadows dropping that day :frown:

My friend who got me into sneakers was only talking about the Toros because our schools colors are red and white =\

BTW NorCal I'm dying at your avi

I made the mistake of waiting around for shadows when they were on the bay for 200 then outta nowhere they skyrocketed still trying to figure out why


Just picked up black whites for 175 worn 3x was that a good price? This thread making me spend money :lol:
 
Dudes kill me with the "if you like shadows and didn't cop them when they released you're a hypebeast" talk

Like you never slept on a release and regretted it later

Shoot, in my case, I was newly "not homeless" and living in a half way house. If the shoe cost more than $30 I probably didn't have it between 2010-2013

I worked hard to get my 1 Collection, and most came after release. You don't know circumstances, remember, it's just shoes, and though we might own the shoe, we don't OWN the shoe
 
You're the exception to the rule. Most ppl want em now that price went up.
 
I remember being on the fence at first. I ran around missing my size at local spots on release day but copped like 4 random size pair. The next day i nabbed my size on ebay for 170 shipped. Love the shoe. I sold the other pairs and didnt get much out of em. I only wanted to cut the cost of my pickup. Should of sat on em a bit lol.
 
I think you guys are childish for calling new people who got into 1s "hypebeast". Im not going to lie my first pair of ones since the barons home back in 08 were actually the black and whites last year and ever since then i fell back in love with 1s, i don't even like any other jays since they feel like space boots to me but 1s feel great just like the dunks that I've been used to buying, i just regret not getting into 1s sooner because of all these expensive *** prices, i don't mind though i got the dough.
 
Can we stop talking about and posting black and whites? Making me really want to cop. At first I thought they were boring and now the more I hear about the quality and pics I see, the more I want Em lol
 
i think the white tongue looks good on B/Ws and black toes. my only issue being they are more likely/easier to get dirty vs. a black tongue.
 
I just love black and white kicks, I've always had an eye on those 1s....

Such a clean colorway on any model, I've got too many B/W kicks though hahaha
 
Quick PS of Black/White W/Black Tongue :lol:   I would def cop or at least attempt but wouldn't know how to do the NA tag. Thoughts?




*Used my black toe pic that I posted couple pages back.
low key thinking for buying a 2nd pair of B\W and doing a reverse black toe custom. Dye the whole tongue black or red. Nike air tag colored black. Ehh still in works so far.
