HOLY **** here we go....
being that this shoe is $130 retail instead of $250 it's easy and smart for people that got it like that to cop multiple pairs, specially if you got love for the shoe...Best way to describe the ZR1 is like a "Cult Classic Movie" Not the whole world knows about it, but that people that do are obsessed with it. Idk if that makes sense to you or not, lol it does to me, so I went with it. I agree there is NOTHING wrong with saving money, that's the point of this thread as well. people getting the best deal. That's not what I meant. I meant IMO they are totally worth the $130 because of the quality, it's not about the hype on the shoe that creates the value- hence it doesn't matter if they sit on not. These sell out on NDC in 10 min, they just restock. Alot of colorways have sold out completely and left people without, searching smaller online retailers for pairs and doing stock locates. Some CW's sit, most don't. Try being finding bigger than a size 12 and talk about "these sit on NDC". The Volts selling out like they did and being limited has left a ****** taste in every ones mouth, and has made everyone real paranoid about these CW releases, they don't wanna be left out on the next colorway, like they were on the volts - and I don't blame them, specially if your trying to cop every CW like I am. Ultimately, after sole collector releases a limited pair, the hype on these will grow- IMO where it should be, because these are a superior shoe to many...and it's not gonna be so easy to cop pairs like it has been...hopefully not, but that's usually the case so enjoy it while you can. Lastly, to each their own...This shoe is a huge priority to me, and I don't care what sells in my neighborhood, I'm copping NDC 8AM release day or I'm gonna have them ******* early like most pairs I've gotten. lol But I understand where your coming from, it was more of a general statement I wasn't trying to single you out. my bad if it seemed that way.
The silver and Neons will sell like FIRE because people want them because they LOOK like the PE and because the strap is 3M...watch and see. I've had NUMEROUS people asking me when they are gonna drop...people thirsty for these already man.
On point in the first and second paragraph, then crashes and BURNS and ruins the whole post because of once sentence, lol.I agree that would be a sick CW tho for the Nets.
NO they are two DIFFERENT shoes: One is Royal Blue the other is Ice blue GIEGER CONFIRMED LAST NIGHT ON MY INSTAGRAM THAT THE ICE BLUE WILL NOT HAVE A GUM SOLE. I honestly wasn't to hyped about the gum sole anyway, Idk why they put it on there to begin with. At first I thought it was fire, but then I started liking it less and less, the Ice blue and gum...Idk Black and gum, now we're talking. I don't know what kind of sole they are going with, he didn't say or reply yet. I'll let you know when I do. AND LOOK AT THOSE SILVER and NEON, Your telling me they aren't gonna sell like FIRE! 3M strap! I can't WAIT for those ******* to drop...
thanks for the SO! glad you find the info helpful...
lmao, I love this post. I feel the same way, I don't care what people around me have on their feet, when I walk in the town or go to the barber people stay sweating my shoes "where you get them at" "what kinda shoes are they" "where can I cop a pair" I'm glad that every other dude doesn't have these on their feet. IMO these **** HARD on air maxes, speed turfs, diamond turfs, **** shox and every other nike trainer...the low cut, strap...durability and these look SOOOOO clean with shorts unlaced and un-strapped.Can't wait to rock my summer pairs...flying to AZ tomorrow and I'm sitting wondering what pairs to bring with or not...lol
Better not be directed at me! lol I'm playin tho...It's the same thing with the Crimsons, dudes be calling them the "Breds". People calling the black/anthracites the "Blackouts". It's just the easiest way to describe them were everyone knows what you mean...I've been calling them the silver neons tho. Sometimes that stuff gets on my nerves too, but then I just let it go. I'm an Oregon collector as well- I have mad O jerseys, hats, t shirts Oregon jerseys are FIRE. I saw an Oregon helmet in champs yardline and tried to buy it but they weren't having it! lol I have a Jets Helmet tho...I think it's sick that Oregon uses the Volt/Neon...I see tho how collectors get mad cus the original school colors are yellow and green, I suppose. I disagree with these not selling. I think they are gonna sell MORE because they look like the PE and people will want them because of that, if anything the cost of the PE will drop because the colorway is a GR. So if people don't wanna spend the money, they'll say...well I'll just cop the GR shoe, it looks almost the same. idk, that's just my opinion.
those unc revis joints will be robo-copped. very happy they're doing away with the gum sole...doesn't look right at all! Hoping it's a blue sole and not a clear sole though....clear soles are so hard to maintain and prevent from yellowing!!
