Decided to pull the trigger on used pair of Breds from Grailed
275$ shipped from US to EU
New pair from StockX would cost me around 640$ with all the additional costs
What do yall think, good deal for the condition?
You sure them kicks are real?

Nothing wrong with used shoes, but if I cant see Nike Air inside the insoles Im not paying 275.

I can't pay over retail of worn shoes...I get it's less than the market for DS but it's just something about paying over box price for worn shoes bothers me.

No need to UNDS ‘16s when your ‘13s still look like this. These are just it. #casualfridays
these joints are better than the 16 pair... except for the height... imo...

16 pair is trash.
Glitter is trash, as well as the shade of red used.

I think nike purposely made it to come off a lot easier than it used to

they need to go opposite direction. make the insole graphics more hardy and durable, and make that dang size sticker easier to remove. on a few pairs, i swear they superglued that darn sticker lol

I don’t know why but my guess would be to save money with cheaper less durable stuff that peels off easily

That's different from them "purposely making it come off a lot easier."

How so? Nike must have known the material used would come off a lot easier

From what I’ve noticed, any non OG 1 retro with Nike Air branding, as far back as the 2013 88 white cements, have had the Nike Air logo stay on the insole after many wears.
I’m not sure what JB is doing but it’s annoying.

the solution would be to just tape saran wrap over the graphics. but we shouldnt have to be doing that tho. sum1 mentioned their nike air being gone after 1 wear. thats crazy imo.

Those look pretty solid-stars aren’t all worn down and the white midsole isn’t peeking out on the soles anywhere from usage. The ankle font isn’t peeling or cracking and the size tag isn’t all yellow and nasty from sweat, so they haven’t been worn a TONNNN. Shoes trees and Jason jason Markk do wonders.FWIW.
