It's not specific to that shot. It's just a general thing. Thats why I took the name out. I apologize to the guy with the picture. He just got used as an example.
We've all seen really nice shots, I just don't understand why people snap with so much clutter everywhere.
Because it's like a lot of sneaker shots. Junk everywhere, etc.

Maybe because dude was just sharing his experience and not expecting you to analyze his environment and make a rant about it.
We don't need to take glamour shots to share our joy to be honest.

All good sir. I used to be a bit critical when I used to read stuff like "I missed out on this shoe" for a shoe that sat hard until someone was like "I'm 15 fool and I didn't buy shoes back then"
We just have to remember that we all have different backgrounds. Some better than us and some worse.

aside from not liking shiny shoes, that was a piss poor attempt at an NYC logo on the back. it offends me. should of just used the old school NYC logo with the swoosh. 
i mean its so bad some people think they have defects. shame on you Nike.
props to those who were able to secure a pair tho.

Anyone know how many mirror foams were made? I'm trying to put it in context with the galaxies.... have always heard 1200 on those. I was ready to pull the trigger at $650 at FC for the mirrors... but they never got a size 13 in. 12 was the highest. So I just closed a deal yesterday for a pair at $775 pp invoiced. (I wouldn't "gift" anyone.. except for maybe The Pope... for a purchase!) I talked with an ebay dealer who did actually both sell and collect $910 for a pair.... so I figured things were starting to slip away from me and I just bit the bullet on them. Unless there's just some huge flood of pairs listed.... these are clearly ticking up in price as each day passes.

the guy managed to get a pair of the mirrors. thats a huge score for his first foam. why dont you say congrats or if u keep it moving instead of shaming him for what he plans to purchase next? how u gonna try to make him feel inferior about scoring these kicks and u didnt? is it a rule that he shouldnt have gotten a pair because its his first and it aint your first?
ridiculous. i dont usually do this but....im glad you struck out.

Sharpies by themselves, I was semi-interested in. Sharpie and Penny 6 pack?
No thank you

congrats on your first pair bro. foamposites are awesome kicks IMO. a good start to your collection. i have the weathermans, although i dont wear em too much. dont let anyone try to influence how you spend your money. if you like the weathermans, get that as your 2nd pair. dont let anyone shame you cause they dont share the same tastes as you.

I found that funny too.... Mirrors were his first foam (Congrats)....but then he's targeting Weathermans
Weathermans are on the ballot of worst foams of all time

yea i kinda get it, but no reason to shame him for it. so far, for posting and sharing his pickup with us....hes gotten crap for even scoring them over somebody else, hes gotten crap for how his room looks, and hes gotten crap for saying what he wants to buy next.I found that funny too....

Guys, you can flame me if you want, but I kind of like the Weathermans. Actually might grab a pair one day. Then again, I'm a huge science geek, so that stuff appeals to me. Diff'rent strokes and all. YMMV.

Depending on how the sharpie is placed on the posote material it could be wiped away with acetone just like the weathermans
