Hey guys, I've been into sneakers for a while especially the D roses and now i'm really starting to get into them. I have a question though, did I miss the window to get The Lake colorway? If I still wanted to cop some now what would be the best route?

It was said to be a Chicago(not 100% sure on this one), China, and Euro exclusive. Ebay is your best bet right now.
 
 
Any tips on buying sneakers on ebay? The auctions I've found seem legit but I don't want to end up buying any knock offs
A big thing is looking at the seller's feedback -- for one, look at their feedback rating but also look at the individual auctions of theirs that buyers have given feedback on.

My tip is to look back on other shoes they've sold and see the feedback they received.  Generally you can tell from this.

I don't believe these were available here in Chicago. At least not at HoH, Footlocker, Champs, or Adidas downtown.

Full disclosure though, I haven't been looking to buy that colorway myself.
 
Bigger than the other 5s?
I don't have any other 5s so I couldn't really tell you. But with two pairs of socks(ADIDAS team speed/ nike elite) there's still room. Mine are a 10. Coulda Been happy in a 9.5 or even a 9. I remember my drose2 I felt great in a 9.5. Maybe they fixed this problem though. My 5s are samples
 
Never mind ebay. I saw the ebay seller is in Lithuania so I went to the site I order from before and they have them.
Comes out to $133 shipped through Paypal. Have no worries they're legit and fast shipping. You're welcome!

Thanks for the tips, i'll keep these in mind if I ever end up going the ebay route
 
Damn, I've been able to squeeze into 9s with some shoes but 8.5 is probably cutting it too close

Yeah I wouldn't recommend it.

I'm not sure where you're, located but also check Adidas outlet stores. I've seen the 4 and 4.5 over the last few months at locations in IL, IN, MI, and VA.

I'm in the suburbs of Chicago, ya I've checked out a couple of Adidas outlets lately but they've basically been all out of Roses

anyone seen the bhm in person? are they still stiff like the rest besides bad dreams and ice?

I don't have those two but I did pick up the BHM. Compared to the red blue and the all black away, the leather upper on the BHM isn't stiff.

I can see the midsole portion with the wording on it maybe being stiff compared to the other two I've mentioned, but I haven't worn any of my 5s yet.
