    Bots and resellers are making getting shoes almost unattainable

    And this is why I don't give a shit anymore.  if I get them, I get them.

    I had some 20something telling me how you can still make money in the shoe game.  I told him that the amount of hustle that goes into it now averages to be like $10 an hour.  If that's your ceiling then you do you.

    2 weeks ago they did a Pass the day before I was to be in Miami but wouldn't let me in because I wasn't within a certain amount of miles of the store.

    I hear ya. I live within waking distance to the biggest Nike store in Chicago….but I work outside the parameters so I miss out on the SNKRS pass 99% of the time….

    Got the intro to here from the Holy Grails thread.

    So still reading through, but interested in who got the Soundgarden x Converse collab from a few years back. Heard only 60 pairs.
  • Semi head here. Scored again on a local raffle for the Polaroid dunks.  I really only try SNKRS or the local raffle these days, haven’t paid resale in a while.  Have about 25 pairs of dunks, they’re pretty much all I own
    I'm like an opening band for your mom.

    When those Polaroids show up in person I am curious to what you think.  I thought there looked more like a blazer.

    Please let us know!

    Any luck in the SNKRS pass? Of course I’m at work so I’m out of range of the biggest Nike store in Chicago.

    You got these?!?  Holy shit congrats.

    I have struck out w my last 20 or so SNKRS tries.  They just asked me to do a survey and if it was fair or not.  Of course not, lol.  I also don't do multiple accounts like most people do.

    I've been trying for the different dunks that I like so I can wear the damn things but nope...  Who the hell is flipping a pair of dunks?  Dear lord man.

    Yeah...I've got a thing for sneakers too. I'm fascinated by the upcoming Jordan 1 Lost & Found release. I think the shoe and the packaging are soooo creative. I do wish the shoe itself was closer to the actual OG shoe build, but for me, this might be the release of the year. FWIW I only collect Jordan 1, 2, 3, 4 releases. Those are my favorites. Any other sneakerheads out there have thoughts on this release?
  • @PJammin'  The L&F are just the 1's slightly different that the og's.

    Oh definitely. They're a great looking shoe. I would've liked to see them a little taller in the ankle shaft (like the 2015 release which I think is closer to the OG build). I think the 2015 is a little straighter and taller in the ankle than these L&Fs. I'm being picky, I know, but for me that would get these L&F to another lever. To their credit, it looks like the L&F are straighter in the heel.

    Banned and black toe.  There was a Chitown release not that long ago either.
