My story goes...
Woke up at noon Saturday morning with no intention of copping the Shadows. Went on Twitter, NT and FTL, FNL, and NDC to see the left over madness from the mornings sneaker mayhem. For some strange reason I slowly began craving these sneaks. So I said "What the hell", lemme drop $140 on these sneaks. Check some links in this thread and they are all gone. Next thing I do is call the local Eblens and to my luck, they have them.
I drop by with a friend of mine and pick up the display sneaker and I wasn't impressed. Friend asked to try on a size 10.5, and they didn't look all that ill. So we decide to pass for now. So as we head home and contemplate on whether or not to make that purchase or not... We go on eBay and see how much the re-sell is.
We see these Shadows going for $235-$250 multiple bids and I didn't understand why. I guess these were a very limited sneaker and only a select view stores received them. So, with seeing how many people were bidding on these OGs, and coupled with the fact that this sneaker can go with many outfits, I decided that I may have made a mistake passing up on the pair at Eblens. So at around 8:45PM, I head back down to Eblens to pick up a 11.5 for me and a 10.5 for my boy. I see two Caucasian men with sneaker boxes in the parking lot. I was hoping that one of them wasn't a 11.5 at the very least
Boy, was I wrong. Walked up into Eblens, asked the clerk for a size 11.5 and 10.5. No bueno
. So now, I'm driving back home with the grump face. Get ready for my overnight shift and clock in. Log in on eBay to the realization that I messed up. Should have copped that 11.5 earlier in the day. So, Sunday morning I start calling every store in my state and luckily a Footaction 44 miles away had them in my exact size. Drive over and copped. That gas wasted though
