Man the United Arrows city socks aren't coming in size 14 anywhere I can see.

I'll probably never get any of these dope collab releases, always hating on big feet.

Flyknit Racer sizing? I'm seeing a split between TTS and half size up. Are they narrow like most Nikes or would it be fine since it's flyknit? I go .5 up on ultraboosts btw.

I wear a 10 on Nike and my Racers are a 10.5. I could get away with a 10 for a snug fit, though, and I will probably get my next ones TTS.

To be safe, go half a size up.

These are a bit different from the usual in this thread, but I won the raffle for the bait x breaking bad wallabees. Being a fan of wallabees and dark red being a favorite shoe color, I couldn't pass them up.

Wallabees are my favorite boot of all time but I don't know if I could rock a red suede version. The last ones I really wanted were the MF DOOM.

Entered a raffle for the following, only CW of the VaporMax I like despite not being massive on TB CWs. More excited to try on and see how they compare to boosts.


Also, anyone that has the lunarepics, how do they compare comfortwise to ultraboosts? Similar price range, but are they worth a look?

All of these drop on ADC tomorrow

Wow, Adidas is trying hard to sabotage Air Max Day with some pretty good choices! Really happy that Adidas is challenging Nike, Nike needed serious competition for a long time! This can only be good for us the consumers, bar all the price increases...

Yeah that Vapor Max cw isn't bad at all!

I've wanted to add Lunarepics to my collection for a while. I think the multicolor and Gyakusou Oreo are really cool.

The sole is identical to the one on the Flyknit Lunar. It's different than boost, not as mushy feeling, better support. I like the sole and the stiffer upper feel.

Definitely go half a size up. I got them in a 11 (Goddess) and it was very snug. Had to return them.

Entered a raffle as well - I'm expecting the L lol.

Saw on TV tonight that Nordstrom in Chicago, Toronto, and Vancouver will have Nike Air Max pop-up shops starting on Sunday with exclusive(?) shoes and clothing, and the pop-up here at the Seattle flagship Nordstrom is going to be selling vintage Air Max from some personal collections.

Not in the market for any kicks right now, but might swing by after work on Sunday just to see what's there

New Balance; 997's especially, tend to fit a bit larger than Nikes. I would go .5 up your Nike size. I just got a pair of the NB x J Crew 997 'Butterscotch' earlier this week, absolutely love them. J Crew usually does a great job with their NB collabs imo.

I agree they run bigger, so he should be going half a size DOWN, not the other way around.
 
Though tempted by trying to go for the UBs (silver and the premiums) as well as the OGs, need to keep my monies as both KH 1.5 & 2.5 HD collection and Persona 5 are dropping within a week of each other.

In this case: games > boost

Will be getting these soon though...

Damn saw the Iniki's in person for the first time tonight at my cousin's house. They look great and the person with them said they were really comfortable. Wish I had grabbed a pair.

It's amazing that they're cheaper than nmds but offer more comfort and support
 
Today is a good day. We got my GF her first pair of boosts! This city sock nmd collab with UA and sons is so dope. I would have got a pair as well but they didn't have my size!

Got to Paypal.

Greeted by this.

"This merchant only ships within the United States."

fmLLLLLLLLLLLLL
Yeah. Heard about this. Thankfully I can ship to canada where I am or a mailbox on the border as I'm in Vancouver.

Usually it's cheaper for me to ship to a mailbox and drive down as the customs are always insane shipping it in. Likewise the shipping costs go up.
 
Grats to you guys who got a W this morning 👍

Thankfully none of the listed nmds weren't ones I HAD to have, and 2 of them I already own. My wallet is safe until April.

Also wore the R2s out last night and I absolutely love how they feel, dare I say more than the R1s.

Does anyone have a rough idea how many Flyknit Vapormax will be released tomorrow? I can't handle this many Ls in one weekend!
