How are you guys getting UBs for below retail on RRS? Is there a promo code?

Sign up for VIP and they send codes every so often. But the VIP automatically brings it down 15%, and then you can also stack a promo code on top of that when it becomes available. If you can wait, do it. Next time they post a code for VIP, I'll post. I believe after both discounts, you can get a pair for around $150 shipped (even lowed if your state doesn't have taxes).

He was only selling limited sizes. The shoes I bought only came in a Men's 9 and there was a separate listing for Women's 7.

A lot of shoe companies make the pre-production shoes for men in sz 9. It makes it easier to design one size initially, produce it, test it, and then scale that model to all the other sizes. I'm guessing they use size 9 because it's in the middle of the pack in terms of size but this is standard practice so it makes sense his were size 9. Sounds like for women, the guinea pig size is 7.

So are the Kolors officially dropping tomorrow? Haven't heard anything in a minute, but all websites state a scheduled date of September 25th.

Is the new outsole traction/durability any different from the OG? Need a slip test on wet surface lol.

I like this colorway.

money saved on those light grey.

So.. you say they stretch a little right? Got my pair from Urban Outfitters in and am happy, but what they didn´t specify on the site is that it´s the wmns version. It fits me, but it´s pretty snug.

 

Walk around the house in em or rock em like kanye and just let the laces loose.

They'll break in though

Sample size is generally size 9.  Same goes for Nike. From what I heard, it's due to the proportions.  Size 9 generally looks the best in terms of proportions.  I think womens sample size is 6/7.  Not 100% sure because I don't buy womens shoes lolz

Good for me cuz I wear 9, but I've never scored a sample

View media item 1723847. Loving these over the wool pair!

 

[sortanew2retro2]

^ My pair of those LTD's from Zappos needs to hurry up and get here (today). Easily one of my favorite colorways. I was so happy to find them on Zappos after originally striking out on them on adidas.com. They look great!

 

[lakers29]

no love for the wool?  are they really that bad in comparison to LTD silvers?  I havent seen either in person but from online pics wools look pretty decent to me.

People at least from what I'm seeing dont like the "Fuzzy" look to it.

I saw the black womens (Wool) pair in vegas and they were not as bad as everyone make it.

When i do decide to grab a grey pair i dont care if its wool or LTD ill just be satisfied.

So heres another thought... When the whites restock... If its wool are people going to pass?

yup, they put 20% off type sales every so often like this week.  Also, if you get mail from them, they have in store coupons .  As for stacking, I've tried the 10% VIP and 20% off in store coupon but manager said I could only get 20% off total, then talked him up to 25%..really good store and return policy.  Is there a maximum discount you can take off online?  

 

[joeoh29]

i ordered the Navys with both the VIP 10% and 20%... came down to 140'ish shipped ( no tax in my state)

people are exaggerating. I copped the greys on day one, been in heavy rotation and there's MINIMAL "fuzz" effect.

Co-sign. I wore my pair for the first time all last weekend and loved how they looked.
