Nabbed my Nike SB Tennis in purple. I'm done for the month.

Also copped in purple; surprised they're still in stock (minus the all white pair). Innevas, Supreme Tennis Classics, a pair of NB's and a pair of Flywire Roshe Runs....this week has just been a joke financially =(

I was actually trying to decide between white and purple and at the time, only purple was in stock but after I bought it, white suddenly became in stock again. But eh, whatever.

Also the flywire roshe runs I saw were eye-catching (the black ones with the multi-flywire right?) and would kinda go with buying them if I had more money available lol.

Picked up a black one today during my lunch :)

Nice. Luckily you get instantly, I have to wait like a week for mine to show up lol.

Haha yep. I'm actually looking online at the purple/green ones.. they are pretty sweet too.
 
how are the roshe runs as a beater shoe? i prefer to wear my nike free 5.0, but i've seen that the roshe runs are pretty popular. are they comfy? i was thinking of getting those or the new nike trainer 5.0s from a couple pages back (in black/red), and possibly these nike free huarache lights:

Btw, how are those colors in real life? I know that volt green is rather bright in person but are they brighter/duller under regular lighting. Same with the purple, though I suspect it'd be darker actually?

I copped the Strata Grey Roshes from Oneness:

The Yeezy Roshe ID's though look preeeeeeety slick to me:

The purple looked real nice from what I saw. Its just the right amount of brightness. Pictures are pretty much on point. Didn't get a glimpse of the green ones though.

Yeah I actually just saw those grey ones off sneakernews. The black I like more because of the orange laces (I'm a Giants fan) but the yeezy IDs were pretty cool too. Unlike the comments, I think I'd go with the pink for the black because it'd be more true versus the red. May ID one of these days...

I would've sold it. Not a fan of the colors. At least with the stealth/jokers there was purple to provide contrast. That XI is just black and loud green.

Due to my self I posed sabbatical, I haven't been keeping up with this super hero pack nonsense. I think I might break my oath to get the Kobe's but I hear they did raffles for these ridiculously expensive shoes.

The crappy mall near me only had one store with the Lebron elites.

Perhaps the most exciting Nike LeBron X release of the year is the “Pure Platinum” colorway, seen here in high-def sporting the insane upper graphic. With a release date confirmed for next Saturday, some LeBron fans are finding themselves on the “pass” route for tomorrow’s Elite Superhero release in anticipation of the non-Elite version, which is cheaper by $80 and arguably more of an exciting color-combo. In any case, we have a detailed set of photos for you to enjoy below, so take a look and get them in advance right now from atljerseys on eBay.

Does anyone know where I can track down some Puma 5000m trainers in the UK? I've been looking for a while, but no where sells larger than about 5 or 6.
I don't get why they were discontinued either, they were the most comfortable shoes I've had.

I'm upset. I had the Crimson XX8's in my FOotlocker cart for 20 minutes and was unable to check out. Then it sold out. Hate this dumb shit online.

Just copped these for the summer

Thinking about getting these too, thoughts @ 43 bux?

Nice! Full disclosure: I work for Vans. I do love the Van Doren reissues though. If you've ever seen the guy, they are soooo an expression of his tastes.

I wish I was more of a Metallica fan. I love the "Kill Em All" Sk8 Hi, but I'm not enough of a fan to wear them. Plus I haven't liked anything the band has done for like 10 years now. Still, kickass shoe though:

That's why I'm going to stand on the line next week for the grape 5s imma make sure I get them lol.

Yessir. Gonna stand in line and try to cop a pair online. Someone at the mall today had them early.

Also, picked up the Kobe 8 Elites. I'm BIG on Kobe's right now. The Brons were nice, just too expensive. I asked my local Foot Locker manager if I could stack my military discount and a birthday coupon and he said no double dipping.

I want the Elite Super Hero Xs and the Home Elite Xs but that's $540 + tax. Nike is not playing around.

Damn it, there's a spot inside my Solarsofts where the seam between the sole and the body rubs against the inner arch of my left foot and it's painful enough to make them almost unbearable to wear. I don't know what to do. :(

These are up for 85$ on kicksdeals.com. Not bad, might bite.

These are super nice, although I'd sort of question their appeal once the current camo trend burns out in a few months.
 
Anyone know how raffle systems work? Never had to do one before but Champs are having one in the morning for the grape Vs
Get ticket to get the opportunity for the shoe. If you win, they call you to show up Saturday between 10-6.

If they do it correctly, they'll raffle by shoe size. If it's a hype release and poorly run store, they just give you a ticket and don't care about the size.
