[spoonmanofthehour]

Are you guys going for your true size in the Carmines or half size down?

True to size.

That article is click bait to me.. nothing in there that wasn't said and shared since before Friday. No idea why dye and bleeding are still a thing. The first time I actually saw a pic of them was exactly when I said its not bleeding.

I just want it to be Sunday night already lol

you are right, nubuck dosent bleed .. suede will but never nubuck. it's way too even and consistent of a pink color.. they used the wrong paint its that simple. if it was bleeding it would look like how the 13 looks when they bleed.

DANG

Have not hit on FNL raffle since Concords

 

[mr23mj]

Hit on Finishline

Sounds promising. They’ll be destroyed

“That’s too bad to even be passed as a B-grade,” speculated one former Nike employee, “so they will be destroyed.”

Nike should donate these to local homeless shelters or other organizations that may be able to use them.

Also I would anticipate the pink carmines being seen as collectable in the future

My wife and I lost on both our phones at FnL. I'm not believing it. When the black hyper royals dropped, I lost, then checked again, I won

Took an L from Finishline.

Hit on FNL for mens but not kids. Put in an extra 15 and 10 tix respectively. GL to everyone that still wants them and I hope the pairs aren't as messed up as we've seen in here over the last couple weeks.

How you do multiple entries at finish line?

 

[el platano]

Gonna try Kicks, or Snipes or whatever they called this week tomorrow

 

[willie mcfly22]

Dang on FNL...

 

[babyface34]

Slap a "Supreme" on all the pinkies and a $500 price tag. They'll sell like hot cakes.

 

[sthebest]

I hit at Finishline, looking forward to copping these Saturday

Someone mentioned sizing earlier, beats me! I’ll never understand how I can wear a 8.5 in aj6 but need a 10 in aj9 nowadays. Everything ever uses to just be size 9.5 for me from the 90s all through the initial gentry run then sizing for crazy.

 

[Faber Castell]

I missed that! Someone posted that in here?

Jordan Asks Retailers to Return Defective 'Carmine' Air Jordan 6s

A production issue on the 'Carmine' Air Jordan 6 retro is turning the midsoles on some pairs pink. Here's Jordan Brand's statement on the the flawed sneakers.

www.complex.com

I suspected something like that. I still feel like the Balvins were somehow involved. Because that's exactly what happened to me with those - looked white for months, then the official pics came out and it was clear they were pink soles.

Ah, yes. The Balvins. So they may have infected the Carmines?

I wonder if the slightly pink ones will be sold to outlets and the really bad ones to be destroyed as mentions in one of the articles?

They should donate them to people who need shoes or something than to destroy them.

A 60 year-old Irish-American man at my gym, who still has his Bred 1's from 1985 said he would buy a pair of pink-soled Carmines. But only for $100

 

[staffsgtdignam]

i dont know but there have been a few instances where a shoes midsole has turned pink over time. olympic pegasus 33, penny 2 white blue, and jordan 13 retro as pointed out in this thread

Were those examples because of suede bleeding or the actual paint/finish changing color? I can’t recall a straight up chemical/polymer issue like with these Carmines but I could very well be wrong.
