Can anyone tell me how the Kim Jones Nikes fit? Are they TTS or should you size .5 up, like some have suggested?

Seconded, would like to know this too, can't seem to find any info online

Not bad but Tisci lost me with his last dunk release. Why is it called a Chukka tho? Looks like a dunk mid.

Chukka usually just means ankle high so pretty much the same as a mid

Also the CDG af1 look like they got regular footlocker gr leather

Now that he's gone from YSL

I wonder if we will ever see a Nike x Hedi Slimane

 

[rfx45]

I think I read that Hedi is focusing on photography but he really didn't seem like the collab type of designer to me though, he'll just copy Nikes silhouette and alter it himself without Nikes help.

Also what y'all think about the Stone Island Sock Darts

 

[rfx45]

they're nice and I like the mid-cut, colorways reminds me of some noir film or something

 

[stuntman mike]

i don't really like how shiny the material is but if it's weatherproofing then i see the utility. i like the silhouette of the sock dart though.

 

[QU!K]

also the 3rd wind runner

I also noticed Public School x Jordan and Nike x John Elliot doesn't get mentioned in here much

 

[QU!K]

These are a lot more lowkey than the other ones

 

[rfx45]

I'm waiting(hoping) those boots make it to the outlets my way, I really want a pair but not for retail and I need to try them on, not enough sizing info on them.

I think it's because those have a more dedicated thread on the Jordan forum iirc.

[rfx45]

co-sign. i was not a fan at all but they look nice on the foot. hope the colorful ones hit outlets for dirt cheap.

 

[QU!K]

Nah just found a pic on google

Just picked up the stone island sock darts in the olive color. Online they look pretty good, but in person, these are really nice. i will post an on foot later.

Besides waterproof and updated pattern, stone island sock darts worth the price? Regular sock darts on the ndc clearance rack.

They aren't waterproof, the top of the shoe definitely could let water in as it's just flyknit. The sides are coated in a silicone that does allow water resistance.

You are paying $200 because (1) you are buying the brand name, (2) you are paying for the stone island tech (look up more info on their garment dyeing process, etc), (3) they are mids, and (4) the nikelab premium. Are they worth the $200? That kind of depends on what you value. I don't care for the regular sock darts but I dig the collab.

nike is also coming out with waterproofed sock darts. i was almost going for one of the stone island pairs but i balked at the price. i have a 20% code that i coulda used but still....

 

[rfx45]

I think they are outlet-bound for that price, plus the hype on sock darts are just down these days, they've been hitting the outlets for ~$50-$60 last I checked?

yeah. i got a pair of nikelab sock darts coming in for cheap. it's funny because htm sock darts ended up at the outlets/nordstrom rack back around 2004 also.

john elliot x nikelab vandal. materials look ok. don't like when they roll the edges like that. vandal is an interesting choice. it's not flashy but it's a good match for his brand's aesthetic.

I like the vandals just hope the price is reasonable.
