Theres always the possibility that these triple black Ultras are cageless with gloss floating 3 stripes like the FutureCraft and Fluxs.... i doubt it, but wouldn't object if it proved to be the case.

(Edit: i think the 3 stripes look to long for this theory to be correct)

Would u guys pay $100 above retail for UB cream/chalk? Thanks.

I personally wouldn't... I don't see myself paying resale for many shoes these days.  Generally going to stick to retail or bust.  It has to be something that I must have.  Are they a shoe that you must have? I already have the whites so although the cream/chalks are nicer, I won't overpay to get them.

I got a pair for 260. Considering tax it was only like 60 above retail. I can't keep up with the thread and watching instagram or twitter for restocks and restocks go out of stock way too fast anyway. If you can't keep up with botiques' social media I'd pay over retail if you really want them. Try to see if you can get it down a bit though. If it's an eBay listing ask if you can do it via PayPal invoice for 30 less.

That's what I thought too but why would just the stripes be shiny and not the rest of the cage?

Either way, if it turns out those pieces are shiny, I will still cop at least two pairs and simply paint those parts a more matte black myself.

seems most of the boosts have a matte base with a semi gloss stripe. looking my core blacks. probably is like that. 

Yeah that's proabably the case, just over analyzing things haha.

No, because they'll eventually restock, probably multiple times like the rest

I know some people don't like this but I uncaged my Wool Gray's. I really like it, makes the shoe more 'Lifestyle(ish)'

 No offence. Just curious that how would you know they are going to restock?

I think you quoted the wrong person but they have restocked certain sizes at random sites and shops but in very low quantities. You have to be monitoring NT or social media pretty much full time to get them.

Just got shipping for creams on Villa

Opps sorry about that. But its quite tiring to keep up with the NT posts. Hope everyone can get a pair without buying from reseller....

I am looking to ship a pair of ultra boosts from NY to a friend currently living in Qatar. Do any of you guys have any experience in shipping prices and maybe any suggestions regarding that, for the specific pair considering size of box, weight etc.? The weight is about 3lbs (1.3kg). I called the big players FedEx - UPS, but the price they are giving me is ridiculous, we are talking about 165$!!! I see online that the small standard box at USPS has a much cooler price (33$), but I am not sure whether they would fit in there. Any ideas maybe? Thank guys!

USPS is always the cheapest for international shipping. You can use your own box, just weigh it and select the option Priority Mail International which is about $51. It will not fit in the small flat rate box.

Yeah I can't be on here all time time so I just went and paid 60 above retail. Whatever. I've saved so much in the past from discounts and winning DS Jordan auctions under retail that I ain't even mad lol. I can afford to go even steven once in a while.

Three flyknits deep but I'll see if these better

I haven't seen any indications that creams will be restocked anywhere nearly as often as whites, core blacks etc. Not sure if you're hoping against hope or trying to salt resellers. I hope you're right so I can get a pair of Irons in a similar manner

Ended up getting a refund from Pakho on the FB group after he didn't respond for almost two weeks and still didn't ship. Glad I did, 260 is overpriced for this colorway, money saved.

Had a feeling that would happen when he told me he didn't have my size in hand and would have to get more from his supplier.
