    Its crazy that Duke's exclusive shoe is a PG 2.5, one of Nike's cheapest models.

    I had a strap on a pair of Keen water sandals bust that almost messed me up.  I can't imagine if I was playing ball and my shoe suddenly exploded!

    They are women’s shoes, so I immediately sold them and turned the money into black and red AJ 1s.

    Just got through customizing these 'Fresh Prince' Grape 5s to have laces. I now need an OG lace lock, to go with the NA on the back. Anyone have a lead  on some vintage lace locks... don't have to be for the grapes. Any OG lace lock clear holder with NIKE on it instead of the Jumpman. I need these BAD to complete the custom. @tempo_n_groove  I'm sure you got a bunch just  layin round.

    The process:


    Finished

    OG lace locks are tough to come by.

    Speaking of the Jordan 3...

    Bron wore a pair of LBJ 16's that pay homage to the 3's.

    It is a pretty neat site.  It's a stockmarket for sneakers.

    There are things that are tough to find that they don't have.

    Remember those "Taxi" Nike's I showed you?  

    You won't find them on Stockx.

    I believe Flight Club is closing down so StockX is the new wave.

    Yea, StockX and GOAT are driving the traditional re-sellers out. Which to me is a good thing because of their usually way overly inflated pricing. You do still have eBay, but I don't deal with it as there are many sketchy buyers and sellers on there.

    That is why FC was great.  You knew they were authentic.

    I was going to start a business where I would authenticate Jordans and attach a tamper proof tag to them.  I never went through with it but I though it was a neat idea.  Maybe I could have made money on that, who knows?

    I remember Lebron doing this when he was wearing the 6's.  This became my favorite shoe and my favorite player after watching him give his kicks to a kid fan.  I believe they were the Chalks which has become my favorite Lebron colorway.

    It really is great that the pros are doing this.

    Again?

    Actually I do like this but they, NIKE, is killing their brand.  They need to not make these every few years and keep people frothing for them.

    On the other hand I love that I can pick a bitchin retro up every few years.

    This is going to be the OG Black Cement IV with NA on the back. The BC IV with the jumpman on the back was last retroed in 2012. So it has been 7 years.

    Fellas, I love my new Jordan 3 Retro Chlorophyll's.  They arrived last week and look sweet!  Now, I'm scared to wear them outside. ;)

    III's released last year.  Mixed these up with the IV's.

    Wear em and pick up a second pair for later.  They won't ever be a ton of money.

    Enjoy them!
