I have a 9.5 if anyone has a 9 to trade.

My joints are cooked. I clean them once and the yellow is already fading by the toe box

 

[calye2da]

My pair still DS. Think Ima just end up wearing them to work.

Did you put any sort of repellant on them?

No because I'm an eediot

I was wondering, because I triple coated mine with Crep. Was wondering if that makes a difference.

 

[rbk93]

Doubt it.

Whenever I buy solid colored shoes I don't expect to wear them much but they always seem to get the most wears out of me for some reason. These and those all red 3s that were released on all star weekend a few years back are worn by me more than any other shoe at the moment.

What's your secret to longevity

 

[sneakaprince]

I wear my lightnings seldomly even tho I doubled up on these.

First time I wore them I cooked speghetti and spilled a small drop of sauce on the toe. Luckily it was able to be cleaned up immediately.

Now I don't cook food with shoes on.

The red 3s are self sustaining pretty much lol it's hard to mess those up and first comes right off with a simple wipe. For the 4s I put some repellent on them and I haven't worn them in any wet or muddy areas.

No shoes in the house is the best way to roll

I remember you said this before and I have to ask - don't you have a dog? I've thought about doing the whole no shoes in the house thing but we have 2 cats and when I walk around without shoes my socks get cat hair on them, and then that ends up in my shoes unless I lint-roll my socks before I put the shoes on. Do you have special house slippers or something?

 

[headdetective]

lol

 

[Liquid Swords]

Sneakers and other shoes worn outside are taken off in the hallway by the front door. Ain’t tracking in whatever’s on the streets.
I wear some generic brand slides in the house for comfort

I actually do! A present from my wife 2 christmases ago

I lived in Japan for a long time and everyone had a shoe closet by the door so it’s something I do here.

[checks mcgee]

Bout 5+ wears in

Light creasing, couple scuffs

Don’t care, ready to beat them into oblivion pause

Wouldn’t mind copping a fresh one down the line, great shoe

 

[kingjay718]

Copped a pair finally. Can’t wait to see what the hype is with these. They look good on feet in pics. Def a shoe of the year candidate

 

[rafbuddy]

Man oh man.this is how to do a 4. They feel like they have that good bulk

 

[evil hag]

Am I okay sizing up .5 on these? I found a pair for a good price, but never tried on 4's before

You're good these things kill pinky toes

This is about the only Jordan i've not gotten yet that I've really, really wanted over the past few years or so. Probably should have a couple of months ago as prices are slowly moving up.

These are probably going to be one of the pairs that people start eating up come refund season.
