Yep. Never had a pair though.

Nope...just financially ignorant lol :( There's gonna be a lot of spaghetti dinners this month, trust me.

I know how that goes. People always ask me "You spent HOW much on those? You could have bought yadda yadda..." My response is usually that shoes last long enough to justify the high prices.

Not interested in anything releasing soon so I'm on the lookout for one of my favorite shoes.

Air Max CB 94'

I actually have some of those, not in that colorway though.

So Finish Line actually came through when I was able to order a pair of black/red IVs during their recent Jordan restocks (thanks GAF for the heads up! =)

Here it is with the cement IVs I was able to get early last year:

man i an a sucker for the supreme vans... may have to cop the lows to wear with some slim khakis and a casual white button down.

I think they were $230 shipped. Steep, but the quality/comfort on these are too nice.

yeah and they're rare so nbd. i used to scoff at sneaker prices, despite having a closet full of bapes, then i started buying leather boots and i miss spending 300.

lows are kinda cool, but I wish they weren't so literally ... flowery.
 
I like the supreme vans. The SK8 Hi is probably my fave out of the bunch.

I keep telling myself I don't want any more sneakers and then I look in this thead : /

Those "Easter" Lebron X Lo's are are raising my thirst meter.

Woke up to that email...the Eras look sooooo good. Gdamnit Supreme.

luckily for all the hype, Supreme vans are relatively inexpensive even after resale markup.

lows are kinda cool, but I wish they weren't so literally ... flowery.

yeah it's a LOT of print. i like my current Supreme vans because they toned down the print:

who am i kidding, i'll still buy the new pair.

I quite like them, especially if they can clean that sole up so it doesn't look like it's fading right out of the box.

Any basketball players in here who tried some of the Nike+ shoes and the App? I was wondering what real-life experience you've had with them? Is it accurate in terms of distance run in a game, vertical etc.? Is it... fun, a nice addition to playing the game?

Appreciate it if you could share your thoughts with me. :)

Also, anyone try the FuelBand? Looks like a gimmick to me but again, would love to hear from someone who tried it. The reviews on the Nike site are rather generic.
 
Anyone know a good spot in NYC to buy and check sneakers out? I really want to get a pair of reebok twilight zone pumps but I don't think there's a reebok sneaker store here.

The Twilight Zone Pump is available in Footaction - I was in one in Brooklyn by Fulton St like a week ago, and they were on display and available to try on. There's a pretty good sale on them there, too - you could probably get a pair for less than $100.

Really?! I work in the area, I'll check it or tomorrow. I saw they were 115 in the reebok site but they don't have my size. Were they the red ones or the green and whites?

I remember seeing the red and white ones there.

You can get them cheaper from citygear.com, btw...there's a great clearance on these. I am copping the gray/red/white ones from there on Friday!

They won't beat me over the head will they?

Their prices on some old shoes or new shoes are fair, but for plenty of "hype shoes" expect "hype prices" + 20%. It's a nice store though. The old one on Lafayette was AMAZING. It was basically a thrift store for SoHo full of old Supreme, Wtaps, NBHD, aNYthing, Polo, North Face, and more for decent prices... I miss that store.

Also how do I make my shoes not smell like shit? My goretex dunks smell like dickcheese (mostly because they're water proof and don't breathe well) but I love these shoes and another pair would cost me too much. What do I do?

I'm feeling these! I agree with what you've mentioned about the sole...

I'm about to pull the trigger on these SB Dunks, yes or no GAF?

YES!

For those that missed out on the Penny V Cloaks release, Sneakerhead appears to have a FSR:
