The digifloral Janoskis drop tomorrow at my local joint, I'm tempted to pick up a pair but I don't know if these would look bad on a 35 year old dude
Those look rather dope! I say buy them!

But srsly, I don't think it would be a problem. The overall simplicity of the design makes it less out there than say, air yeezy's

Dude, rock them. I think they'll look far better to wear than boring boat shoes during the summer like most will.
Plus, like with all digicamo stuff, most people won't notice the colors until they see you up close.

Today, I got four boxes in the mail today. The ladies in my leasing office were clowning me for my "hobby."
So far this week, I got:
Kobe 8 Sulfur (second pair)
Kobe 8 Easters
AJ1 "Celtics" X2
NB 990 Anniversary Black X2
NB 993 Boston Marathon
NB 574 Floral Blue
Going to skip the AJ 8 Hare Jordan. Don't really like the look.
And I would LOVE get the Lebron X (Home and Superhero) and Kobe 8 Elites (Superhero) but the prices are extremely high. Ridiculously so. The X Elite Homes are $280, probably almost $300. I'd rather spend the money to pre purchase a PS4 or Nextbox then pay that for a new release.
And the news of the fall Nike Signature Basketball line has them all $20 or more than now, SMH.

I'm so sad and mad at the same time. Did you guys see nike store restocked almost every major release in the last year last night?
Yeezy 2's
Foamposite Stealths
Galaxy Foams
White out Foams
Retro 88's
Lebron Corks
He Got Game 13's
barkley posite max area 72
Bred 11's
The list goes on.
No warning nothing. I want to put myself in a dark room and listen to some Sade and cry myself to sleep.

And I missed the restock too. I would've copped the Corks and 88s.

Ugh I wish I had not read this
I was after a pair of Yeezy 2's and Foamposite Stealths. Since my sister is going to Law school in the states, she's been on the look out for me. If I would have known, I would have given her the heads up.Bruce Lee Kicks

yeah I posted about it a few posts up ^
I really like those Lebron X Superhero also. Dunno if I want to hold out for them or Nike iD some.
Those Puma Clydes are dope too.
Wow at that re-release list. How are you supposed to know about that without constantly refreshing sites or being lucky as hell randomly browsing shoe sites?
Anyways, ordered these today:
Liked the technology and design when the first news was released about them. Interested to see how they feel.

A $50 shoe with a $150 embroidered pigeon. Okay.
They'd go so nicely with the Staple sweatshirt I got for $8, hah.

is that a standard colorway or did you ID?
haunted_taco

that's a standard colorway, can you even ID these free trainers yet?
The only way I can think to even try to get in on those restocks is to constantly stalk social media. I just can't do it, maybe I'll get lucky and happen to be looking at twitter when a restock goes up one of these days.

It's technically not a standard colorway its an N7 collection colorway. No clue when they will be available for ID.
Almost went with these, but any sort of physical activity and they'd get dirty way too fast:
EDIT: Interestingly enough the colorway I chose was cheaper than the 3 standard colorways out for the Free's

Are we allowed to post live eBay links? I found an ad for some Royals that seems super fishy.

Bought my first pair of Nikes in at least 15 years: bright orange Solarsoft moccasins for $25 brand new. Thanks, Nordstrom Rack clearance section.
I also saw the woven turquoise Free Run+ 2 and they looked amazing, but unfortunately they were full price... and $140 is definitely out of my range for now.

At least my wallet can breathe easy. Though when you do know, I'd love a heads-up if possible?
Thanks.
There are Adidas Rayados, many different colours available:
https://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=...6.864.6j3.9.0...0.0...1ac.1.9.img.VOw5rOAIUrU
I suggest searching on the internet for adidas rayado to buy in the country you're located in. Generally in the UK i only found about 5 colours at the moment. These greys, then some in red (looked dope aswell), brown, black and white. I found a pair on ebay in blue which looked great aswell.

Will do
Awesome. Thanks brah.
Sweet thanks. Found them on the US store at least, I can always drive across the line to pick them up if need be. Shoes are such a bitch, everytime I find a pair I really like they a) don't make them anymore b) are only available in New York/LA/Toyko/UK/wherever stores or c) cost $250. That's why I have had the same pair of Adidas since 2007
(well two since I bought two sets)sweetvar26

Thank you.
I was them everytime I wear them with the finish line foam. Nice soft cloth. I used some of that water repellent before and it fucked u two pairs of shoes.
This is all I've ever done.
I do like to use some water proofer before wear also. Make sure you use the specific type of for the material of the shoe (smooth leather, suede etc...) Avoid the multi purpose types and always go for the most expensive brand. I've never had any problems with spray protecting any of my sneakers and I must of done 100+ pairs including almost ever color and material.
I've got the teal Shadow Society release, they look lovely and the suede is all kinds of buttery but I'm in excruciating pain when I walk around in them. I'm not sure if I got a bum pair but the insole is extremely narrow and the edges cut into my feet. Quite upset about that.

My favorites Pumas that I owned were their gvv specials - the all velcro gv special in white. I have no shame in saying that I bought them because I saw Craig David wear them in his music video when I was in college. They were very nice, got compliments on them and I wore them out completely.
All of the other Puma shoes I've seen though? They've never caught my eye really.
For me it has to a lot to do with the contrast of colors between the shoe and the Puma swoosh, some work but others are just awful.
The Grey / Black / Red lace Clydes are GOAT colorway though.
Now that I think about it, I think the problem with mine are just that the Puma Swoosh is black as well, so there is nothing that makes them pop. May just have to go buy white laces.

something about a puma with a gum sole that just does all the right things for me.
I don't see any with gum soles posted here.
Oh, and Flyknits. wore them today, mad comfortable.

Yeah I was just talking about in general.
Awesome flyknits man, I think mine are probably the most comfortable sneakers I've ever owned.

I have the blue and pink ones. Very light but IMO that is the wrong answer. Kobe 8 is the right answer. Comfiest shoes I've gotten in a long time.
