So I just scored some animal Supremes for good price in my opinion ($300) but will be doing a sole swap so I can WEAR them
Just wondering your guys' opinion on air bubble color...I think either #1 or #2
The gum sole WILL be attached on the bottom, I just need to pick the best donor to match the air unit.
Original unit
Donor Option 1: CLASH PACK 535661 130 ($10
Option 2: GPX SPACE BLUE WHITE JADE 684174 400 ($72)
Option 3: ATOMIC TEAL 537383 230 ($108 )
Option 4 ESSENTIAL GORGE GREEN 537383 112 (cant find a US11)

That's what Im leaning towards, I think they're the closest in color bc the first may seems too neon....
Plus that $30 I'll be saving will be the money I use to ship them to the UK to get the job done

@SingledOut the Atomic Teals seem the closest air unit to me

Yeah, 1 is a little more neon, the last is too gorge greenish, and between the two and three its kind of a tossup. I think the teal is more teal than green.

super jealous of that pick up. whatever bubble is more neon would be the one I'd use as a donor

I want to do this too. You just used hot water and re shipped by pressing with your finger?

Couldn't risk this pair being bought. Went ahead and swooped this pair for $72 shipped.
Didnt think I could find a pair with green bubble (closest to the real supremes imo) that are DS and in my size.
I'll be posting before and after pics when I can. Supremes get in this weekend and donors probably early next week.

I know you already bought the donors. But I personally would never get over that green outsole. I would rather sacrifice the air bubble color for a cleaner outsole but just my .02 cents

Wow that is impressive. I don't have nearly that many just getting back in the game. I am only at around 60 pairs but if I can hold out another year or so we are planning on building a new house and I can get my shoes a dedicated room

Bruh we might need to talk about addiction [emoji]128540[/emoji] I've got a pretty good running list in my head of what I have but that many I don't think I could keep track of all that.
