I only have 3 pairs of XIs...Might do an ID.
How much do forging irons go for nowadays? I might wanna pick up a pair if my funds are looking good.

A few days ago someone in the thread said he got his for $260 shipped. After you account for tax + shipping + fees, that's a major hit for the seller who probably thought these things were gonna be after-market monsters due to being so limited. But as always, one steal doesn't dictate what the market asking price is. As Dark Steel said, most I've seen are in that low to mid $300 range.

Congrats to all those who got their SLHs, can't believe there were a couple of people acting like they were limited...

maybe u haven't kept up with this thread but I've seen more than a handful of people claim they did and are now copping months later *shrug* not sure what the point in even asking that question was.

This colorway has been pushed back to 5/17. It is a regular XI, not an Elite or Low.

Wish there were pics :\.
The regular versions I dig a lot, but color ways haven't swayed me into buying them.
I've only bought 3; KP, Aways, and Miami Nights. Aways are to me, the best of them all.

Depends on your perspective (and I don't mean Kobe 9) then it was a limited GR like the AvM, TW and MN compared to other releases. It sucks that they cost $200. Hopefully, they stick around long enough that people can get them on discount.

Only thing I'm looking for is the KC. Still wanna go back to grab the BHM since it's my 2nd favorite tied with the aways. My only gripe is the break in time for the pinky or big toe area. My aways were the only pair not to hurt at all but KP MN and SLH needed or needs to be broken in

Like I posted earlier. It's the insert. Someone posted they cut the inserts a bit in the toe area. The other recommendation is use Jordan 2012 or Kobe 8 inserts.

Was happy to get my pairs at $180 shipped each on NBA store. The lowest the would prob go is $160 on eastbay with coupon. Not 1 color has stuck around long enough on NDC to get marked down yet either.

By the way, I slept on the aways bigtime, and was one of the ones to go back and cop (x2).

Call me old fashion but I'm to frugal to cut anything off these high priced sneakers lol KP fits fine and MN will after another wear. It's a matter of time

I've been around, since the thread has been around. Lol
But the fact that there is still a demand for the shoe, doesn't mean that people initially "slept"
I don't understand why when people like a shoe, everyone else has to agree and if not they're "sleeping" and unaware of it dopeness. Lol
Sometimes people are completely aware of a shoe and it's just not at the top of their priority list.
IMO People tend to make these ridiculous statements about slept on shoes to make themselves feel better about being that shoe's #1 fan from early on.

"Sneakerheads" are mad when nobody wants the shoe and mad when everybody wants the shoe. It's funny how the Elites will be received once released, and that HOH Only colorway drops.

I agree with domo 100%. Can't knock anyone for waiting for a better. Who doesn't like saving money? I mean at the heart of the sneaker world isn't about the consumer getting a fair shake when it comes to the Giant that nike is. Every chance I get i will cut corners on paying retail for anything. Truth be told the SLH could go on sale in the next few weeks but being in the heart of hornets country it's something I couldn't chance. Good luck to everyone holding out for the better and a salute to those who already know what it is

I hadn't even thought about from a discount perspective.
Sometimes I just hold out on buying shoes right away to see if I really want them...9x out 10 I don't lol.
A lot of us sneaker enthusiast get caught up chasing the feeling of bringing home a new pick up that we start purchasing every flavor of the month kick on auto pilot.
I personally gotta take a step back sometime to realize that I don't need 35 c/w's in each silhouette
Nike is definitely releasing kicks at a much faster rate than I ever remember, I gotta be responsible for slowing myself down sometimes lol
