Nike Air Yeezy Red October 2 Thread Officially Released VIA NDC 2/9. No BUYING/SELLING/TRADING.

PRgirl is so full of it and I can't believe some of you guys are falling for it. You can't sue an ex if you buy them gifts during your relationship and it doesn't work out. If you're married it's a little different as assets are split up, but this woman is trolling you guys if you think she has a long list of items she expects back and will sue over, then burn his RO's.

You guys new at the Internet or something?

Not all those items were gifts, and the items without prices on my list can rightfully be reclaimed by me. It's not a lawsuit either. It starts out as arbitration first. And he owes me money from a loan - his option is to pay back the monies or give back ALL the items.

The burning of the RO's has nothing to do with getting those items back anyway. That's separate.

 This is getting ridiculous. Some people feel the need to feed off attention... there's a PM feature, hell you're FB friends now so you could just easily message each other there but feel the need to come back to a public forum. Awesome.

"Just don't look"

sneakers could be a gift or a curse. being you can make money off them but you can also get jacked for them as well so be careful when making a deal on the buyer/seller side
 
so i was talking to "the most trusted man in sneaker trades" a few minutes ago, about a trade offer i'm thinking about putting together, and also his thoughts on the RO's and where they'll end up, price wise, and here's some interesting tid bits from him:
________________________________________________

"I've held one pair in hand so far and have a few more coming in. Quality wise I'm not a huge fan of them. They almost have a cheap feel to them and that's primarily due to the spikes they used on the sides. I personally like the Solars and plats more, these feel as if they threw them together quickly. Price wise I've had a couple people paying between $3k-$3.5, but it seems like they're slowly coming down.

When first released people were going to trade mags for them through me but now it hasn't happened. In fact, I've noticed people offering Solars for them and asking the red yeezys to add on top. Some people were selling for like $2.8 at a sneaker event (not much difference but still), the only thing that worries me with price is if they restock sometime down the road, I know people say it won't happen but who really knows for sure anymore. Average price I've seen in Facebook groups has been between $3k and $3.5 but it also depends on size."

the most consistent thing i'm hearing from people who have owned or held pairs in their hands is that the quality is the weakest of all the yeezys thus far.

that sucks.

As a whole the yeezy Is were better quality than the 2s and I don't think anyone would deny that. When I held my friend'a pair that leather was incredible! But I think it just goes with the 2's design as well since it isn't made up of mostly leather.

It has the plastic on the back wth the ridges and mesh material on the toebox. While the plats and solars have leather on the sides of the shoe and these have plastic. The only raw material on the ROs is the suede toe rand

As for the cws with the yeezy 2s I feel like the plats=solars and the ROs are right behind them

But again, the issue with quality is largely focused on the midsole paint job. Outside of that I don't know what there is to complain about. I suppose the suede could have been more plush but it wasn't terrible by any means. Plus it makes up a very small amount of the shoe. Red spikes may not be as premium as scaled leather but that's a materials choice, not poor craftsmanship. The paint job is poor craftsmanship and the only issue I had with my pair.

So while I agree they are likely in third place, I still maintain it's a premium shoe with a lot of interesting detail. I really loved how the detailing on the mesh tongue turned out in all red.
 
I have in hand now and whilst I don't have any other Yeezys to compare them to quality wise I do have other SP and TZ Nikes to compare to. So for example the most recent being my ATC 2 Aus open SP quality is better without a doubt.

My opinion is that there is nothing wrong with the materials used, they feel pretty good to me the issue is with finishing and quality control which is the usual GR JB NSW standard.

Overall in general terms I would place these above an average general release due to nicer materials but lower than an average SP.


Quality means nothing to a beast with cash to burn though. If you want quality get the adidas Eqt running support that just dropped or any NB made in USA and Eng.
