ADIDAS x YEEZY COLLAB OFFICIAL THREAD *2016 thread link 1st page*

[gameupz]

Don't know why ppl always think buyers who pay high prices are desperate. More enough then not, it's bcuz they got it like that and are just on a different pay scale. A lot of ppl outside of NT have money and $1000-1500 isn't a lot to them. Actually most designer items cost more then this. Retail price is just for the stores, secondary market is always higher. If ur very well off, even if u paid $2000 for a sz 5, 6 or 7, I doubt they would even feel it or cause a dent in their wallet. They buy it and don't even look back to see what the value is now or how the market is going. Ppl who make serious money are busy doing other things not worrying about little things (this is their mindset)

My ups driver handed me the box and said I know what these are. I gave him Russell Westbrook interview face. Wasn't my regular dude

When they deliver a bunch of the same item they can pretty much figure it out. Not to mention the multiple grown men that were probably waiting at the door for their package.

The ups guy that delivered my apple watch a couple months back told me to enjoy it, he had delivered about 20 others that same day so he already knew what it was.

Suspect, why did he say something like this? It's like: I thought about stealing them, but be thankful I did not. Strange

Does dude in the background look like a George Zimmerman variant or am I reaching?

Anybody tried putting waterproofer/"REPEL" on these?

Its crazy that people are still not hip to how flight club manipulates the market. Its called taking down sizes and putting them back up as if the item really sold at that price. They may sell a pair or 2 to a random celeb or something but its the same with stores putting a size run of their own collabs online and take pairs down as if its sold out and BOOM the restock  the same pairs they took down from the site which gives the illusion its selling out wich makes people feelike l i better grab them before they sell out again. Elementary tactic my boy who owns a shop does as well

You have absolutely no clue what your talking about..... there's no way for them to remove shoes or hide shoes..... The manger at FC is my boy so i know how the system works. They move such an amazing amount of inventory everyday that even i couldnt believe it at first....but go there on a busy day there isn't any space to move with so many people buying stuff and a lot of the stuff they sell is to tourists. People go in there and drop tons of cash on over priced kicks just go on instagram and post a pic of the flightclub bag to stunt. I have personally seen parents drop stacks on yeezys for their kid so to say nobody buying at high prices is just dumb....

Who gives a damn what FC does. We arguing about what they do or not do. It's 4th of July. Grab a beverage.

I sprayed mine but more concerned about the heel part of the soles though... ill report back after i wear em again.

 

[starfox070]

Lol from what we can see this kinggeorge guy is a lier about his FC connections. probably and has no idea what he's talking about.........

He's been going back and forth with several of us and the consensus we all say to him or her is that, "you have no idea what your talking about" lmao

I'm still confused for sizing for this shoe. I managed to snag an 8 on eBay for a good price but I'm hoping it fits.

I wear a 9 in everything Nike from Roshes to air max and have a little less than 1 cm of space left. But with Adidas I wear 9.5 in ultra and pure boost. Will I be alright fam? Worried I made a mistake ordering an 8.

 

[cococard]

Finally scored a pair off the bay (size 11) for 720 shipped.

I think 700 is more of a fair price for 350's. Many BIN at 800 to 850 with not one bid.

Im gonna be honest i dont think they will fit.

I think that 8 is going to be tight. I wear a 10.5 in roshes but got a 10 in these and they fit too perfect. If I don't cut my nails, I could have some problems.

Would also like to know this

 

[glendroid]

I just went with what people said and sized down. Because the 9's for my Roshes and air max are slightly too big. For Nike free I can wear 8.5....

I say you will be fine. I wear a 13 in anything and a 12 fits me perfectly and is not snug.

would like to see how this works. I have that jason markk repel and i was thinking about using it.

 

[973kicks]

i thought general consensus for size was size down if you're a half size or stay true to size if you're a whole size

 

[jvo5319]

Going be tight imo. Half size too big. Not whole size down

 

[973kicks]

yeah i meant size down half a size not whole size..my fault

 

[jonbrandon88]

hopefully the soles last long enough...people saying they are wearing down??

FCLA has kids, like 9-13 year olds, paying with black cards.

I love it. Sold a pair of Y2s in 1 minute...30 seconds walking in, 30 seconds to count the cash from the rich pops.
