I'm honestly loving that foam hype is dead.  Grabbed the obsidians, hopefully they go on sale somewhere so I can recoup the difference in cost.

Feel you. I just checked and saw full size run on eastbay. If they still have my size 15 when the discount becomes available I'm on it.

almost FSR on eastbay.

size 13 struggle is real :lol:

that's my size but Im not interested unless under they hit disco. I think NDC has a FSR though.
 
A month or 2 ago in the facebook Foamposites Only group, someone posted a This or That: royal ones or royal pros.

That is a NO brainer for me : the ONES that started it all. But I was shocked, Pros won the votes by a landslide, probably 75% of the comments were for pros.

i was too young when the original Ones released. so the Pros were my first real taste of Foams. i love the Ones but we all know how that sole gets. the Pros were that :smokin
 
i rememba the raptah viis/nike air v 99s back in early millen. was my first taste of rhe retro game.

My raps had squeakey air bubbles afta some considerable time. Do the foans squeak at all? Og or not? my 07 anthracites have been worn lightly btw so no way to tell there.....
 
Ehhhh on the china foams. Sole color sucks. The face is out of place. If they did fish scale print with some goldfish or coy print it woulda been muchh cleaner. They just did way too much imo.

ive probably had 10 pairs of foams btwn Pros/Ones and never had problems with them squeaking.

Yea on the FB post I was wondering if the pro's won in landslide because it was mainly teenie boppers

It's all good though, I respect it. For me, I owned original royals and they're iconic to me. I had them and 97 pearls. later on I got the triple black pro's in like 03/04 and wore those to death.
back when it was all so simple :pimp:

I don't make statements that are NYC specific so I don't get why you would even try to bring that out like I'm speaking for your city alone.

I could care less who you think follows sneakers. I'm talking about the expanded picture.

its not a big deal

i dont care about nyc myself

i just want to buy kicks with no hassle but i dont see anything slowing down anytime soon

just cause a shoe don't sell out don't mean the hobby is dead

Nobody said the hobby is dead. You took what I said out of context.
Also, you limit yourself in your buying ability due to your personal preference on how you acquire your shoes.

Did you want the Aqua foams this morning? How hard was that? Did you want the Knicks foams? Any non limited foam has been easy as pie lately.
What about Jordans? only the very limited stuff has been hard.
I can walk into a store today and get the Columbia 4s and the French blue 7s. The recent 13s were also around for a while. Even the limited shoes aren't pulling the resell numbers that they had been lately. The overall values of shoes are down since they were peaking in recent years. It's no denying that.

THAT IS A SIGN OF THINGS SLOWING DOWN. If that's not one, then I don't know what is.

I don't believe he said it was dead.
But fact is, it is dying down from where it recently peaked. Kids can't keep up, it's expensive and there are far too many releases back to back
 
I just know BHM forces were sold out when the timer hit 0:00 so I have no hope for getting the chrome foams.
 
yup you right. last few J's and foams sat for a while. 4's, 7's are still available by me for retail. so are the Knicks, Pink Cement, Volt foams.

im hoping the Osbidians sit for atleast another 2 weeks. cant afford them right now.

Both those retro+'s sat when they first released and those foams are absolute trash.

I wouldnt say those are any indication of "things slowing down"

Weak "non limited" products get weak results

So shoes that sat on their first release mean something now? :lol:
Comical and ignorant at the same time. Olive 9s sat SO hard and sold out instantly. Jb retroed the same CDP Jordans that sat and sold out before hitting sale prices this time around.

And. Cmon son. Some super ugly foams dropped during the hype that sold out also.

^ I mean you feel like you're 100% correct, I don't think me wasting my time typing is going to change that.
