I was thinking about punching the second row but there’s no need, for me at least. I kind of want ppl to know their Fresh Princes (although 80 percent of ppl won’t be able to tell). Had to snatch the laces and lace locks out the 2013s, the length on the laces are perfect( those are most likely out the door any day now).

In comparison to the 2013s the leather is far softer and higher quality , there’s more cushion, they wear better and are more comfortable. Finally we can’t forget that Nike air. The 2013s were tanks but incredibly uncomfortable so I barely wore em not to mention they ran kinda big. All in all a good remastered attempt

JB loves Debossing text into the tongue

Just because it can be done dosent mean they should
 
I like these no lace 5s better then 5s with laces, they fit nice on my foot lol

This concept is no different than what they did with the laceless Chuck Taylor's that became popular. I love this version of the Grape 5. The complainers can just wait for the ones with laces, they will come. I'm just glad we got these too. Like I said before, it's great to have options. The tie in with the Fresh Prince was a brilliant idea.
 
She’s cute and all but her custom was kinda trash especially if she’s charging 75. I’d be upset. She skipped the top 4, middle, and bottom holes and didn’t shape the holes on the second row. Happy to see it being done but damn poor execution. There’s no way I’m lacing up these with 4 rows of holes

I definitely did a better job A9DA487A-6F7A-45E8-89FD-9FB3D27995C9.jpeg

I was thinking of your custom when I watched this video. You definitely did a way better job. She missed the lower lace holes, without those the shoe looks jacked. I can't even believe Unbreakable Kicks graduated from the U of I, dude isn't that smart to pay $75 for THAT. :lol:

I was watching how she handled the hole punch like nah I’ll pass. Even the size of the holes was off

Might just rock my creams with no laces
 
Thats crazy.. I have tried to cancel with them before and they always say no shoes are shipping. How'd you manage to do that?

Be careful with PP.. I think they changed something because the same thing happened to me on SNS.. was seeing how much Don C Legacy's would be and wham- purchased! As for these V's.. I noticed that they look choked out with the attached tongue which is a no-go for me. When you wear regular V's with no laces its more relaxed and looks way better.

I canceled the second I got to the purchased screen it was an honest mistake. They sent me an email like we rarely cancel orders but you canceled before we even processed the order. Apparently someone in the warehouse was all the way on top of his job lmao. They might not notice depending on how many orders they deal with per day

Wowzers.. damn right they were lol. I have tried to cancel sooo fast and they faithfully be like "Cancel? what is cancel?" You def got lucky.. hopefully they dont catch the free shoes and they probably won't. They seem to ship, forget, and move on unless you're returning.
 
Finally tried my pair on..a tad snug but no pain...leather reminds me of WC4 maybe a tad bit softer....still tmnt shell shocked I got a pair because no shops here got em....my bday is in december I may get a sonic the hedgehog cake made with him rocking these...if I do I shall bump with a photo.
