Official Air Jordan 1 Retro High Thread Vol: Best Model/Thread

Pic via NiceKicks on IG. Sole swap. Always wished LMs came like this smh.

Soles look cool and all, but isn't the paint on the right white pair still red underneath and same with black pair isn't that royal blue underneath? Soles match but paint doesn't thats silly.

What are LM (Black) going for nowadays...? $350-ish DS?

 

[paperclip]

Time is about ripe to pick me up a pair of dsm's.

Whats a good price to pay for a 10?

yeah DSM has lost so much value, same thing goes for Pinnacles.

Not afraid to admit my mistakes and wrong assumptions. I was wrong about DSM's only going up in price. Was also very wrong about the availability of the Chi's. I was not able to score through FTL and company sites. Had them all added to cart but could not check out. Was also 0 for 12 on raffles, and most of my raffle tickets were at Staten Island Mall which apparently didn't get that many allocation of pairs, not to mention the 90% of rigged raffles in those stores. But I will eventually get my Chi's at retail one way or another. 

Those members I told to not worry about the Chi's being limited, you're free to flame on me lol 

. You know who you are. ahem @OGMCMXCII

 

[locobans]

^^ repped not many own up like this specially on NT

$450-475

Really? I hear cats be havin them for less than 4 bills. Where the heck do nters come up on deals like that

 

[vinotwofour]

yeah I was not expecting Nike to cancel the release, also wasn't expecting the SNKR app to be available to the public last weekend. Definitely didn't anticipate the resell to jump THAT high. Was honestly expecting it to be $300 at the most for the first week. I was very wrong. I didn't keep up much in this thread and the Chi thread the last 2 weeks because I was mostly occupied with moving, if not, I'd probably make myself to be a bigger fool in here lol

*westbrook face* Huh????? I asked where you where because you as a NT regular didn't post anything on here yesterday while other regs did...You cool I aint flaming no one here bro. Hell I barely got anything as penny cleaned most sizes from the stores in my state....what size you put in the raffle?

Depends on the quick cash sellers for price......by digging and looking all over they out there.

 

[vinotwofour]

@locobans  nah not Dominican lol. Yeah I was out of the Chi thread like 3 weeks before, the AJ1 thread was much more organized and I was reading posts from time to time but just didn't have time to post anything relevant. 

@OGMCMXCII  my fault, I thought you were one of the people i told like a month ago that people are blowing the availability of the Chi's way out of proportion and should be enough for people to eat if work was put in. Wasn't the case for me. I put in size 8 because if these Chi's are truly remastered like the Frags (which I went TTS in) I wouldn't have a tight fitting problem like 2013 1's. 8 of my 12 raffle tickets were at the Staten Island mall. I was not able to make it out to Manhattan to enter any raffles so i had my girl enter 2 and my brother entered 2. 0 of 12 won the raffle. 

I'm waiting to see when Nike will release them, hopefully with a slightly better system to give teammanual a chance.

I normally wear size 13..but for the Chicago 1s..I got lucky online..couldn't get a 13..but I scored a 12.5
Half a size down on NA 1s shouldn't be too bad I'm guessing right?

They'll probably be a tight fit,TTS is usually recommended for 1s.

[/quote] No one really knows the availibility/allocation 100% when it comes to releases like Saturday's. I spent less time checking sources online and more time getting my feet wet at shoe stores. I'll definitely look out for you when ndc drops their pairs keep an eye on your Dm will have to act fast if I cart something.

 

[vinotwofour]

Thanks I appreciate it. I'll be keeping my heads up for the drop and will be popping in more since I'm officially moved in. 

 

[bwood056]

Just wanted to post some post break in pics.

Wore them all day yesterday.

Leather is breaking in nicely.

 

[alp]

For the feet

 

[vinotwofour]

@alp how many pairs did you get?

 

[alp]

@alp
how many pairs did you get?

only 6, hooked one of em up to a nter for 270

 

[MaxP_3]

6 damn, if only I could find 1 Sz 12.

 

[vinotwofour]

not including kids? thats pretty good if they were all raffles.

Nike needs to hurry up with this release. I was hoping those Pinnacles coinciding with the Chi's would help me. 

 

[alp]

3 kid three men. Only 1 pair from fcfs and that was a kid
If I was on point with the fcfs aspect like usual I alone would've had 10+ easily

 

[yancancook90]

I'm convinced these are the only Jordan's I'll ever need for the rest of my life, other than black & white cement IIIs & IVs

 

[goastrydur]

There is a local seller on Craigslist that has a pair of 2001 Royals for sale. I'm thinking of offering him a straight up trade with my red suede Raging Bull V's. Both seem to be in about 8/10 condition. Is this a fair trade and would you do it? Opinions please.

I wouldn't do it if I was him.

Royals > Every other Jordan ever in my book.
