Essential BRAD PIFF'S SNEAKER THREAD

[Mr. Jack Napier]

Taking a page out of @Brad Piff 's playbook

Before the 'Powder' 10 makes its anticipated return in February, the colorway will make its Air Jordan 3 debut a month earlier.

Part of the brand's continuous salute to MJ's alma mater, the shoe boasts a predominantly powder blue upper, helped by black on the tongue, laces, eyestay, elephant print overlays and heel. Wolf Grey makes its presence felt on the tongue Jumpman logo and inner lining. Black and white share the midsole, which sits atop a grey rubber outsole to complete the look.

The 'Powder' Air Jordan 3 drops Saturday, January 18 for $170 at nike.com, Eastbay, Foot Locker, Footaction Champs Sports and other Jordan retailers. Sizes run from men's to toddler.

Right before my bday

It's rare that we still see an Air Jordan retroed for the very first time, but that will indeed be the case when the coveted 'Powder' 10 returns to retail next year.

Originally released in 1994, the classic features a white and black tumbled leather upper with a powder-lined interior. Finishing off the look below is a black midsole and alternating black and powder rubber outsole.

You'll be able to get your hands on this returning classic Saturday, February 22 for $170 at nike.com, Foot Locker, Eastbay and other Jordan retailers. Sizing runs from men's to infant.

They already up the price. Most of the J's were going for 160 now they are $170. They didn't even wait till 2014

They sure didnt.


I went on a temporary strike when i found out the steel tens were 170.



Litttle did i know those were the catalyst for the next jb price surge in lieu of when this was intended to commence with the infrared sixes in jan. weak.

Although they've rarely been released, "Dunkman" LeBron colorways date all the way back to the Zoom LeBron 2. Here we see a GS version of the theme on the LeBron 11. The upper is has been colored up in shades of grey and silver, and it features trim in the Dunkman's signature neon.

There are no release details yet, so check back for more info as it becomes available.

Like the all-new 'Infrared' colorway, the 'Venom Green' Air Jordan 10 Retro is on tap for a Spring '14 release.

Pictured below, the shoe features a black leather upper, anthracite eyestay and collar, cool grey outsole and venom green accents. You'll be able to pick up a pair in sizes ranging from men's to toddler on Saturday, March 22 at nike.com, Foot Locker, Eastbay and other Jordan retailers.

They know exactly what they're doing. You got people like Miley fukkin Cyrus rocking jordans.


The popularity is undeniable.


What oG heads like me and you won't cop, there are sure to be demographics that WILL buy them because its the hip thing to do.


This in turn creates a demand for even the nastiest retros/take downs/team j's, with of course, the signatures being sell outs in days, but all this is
stuff we already know. So to not sound redundant...


There seems to be no signs of the sneaker industry slowing down anytime soon. People that i know who aren't even up to shoe releases know just
aboot as much as I do because of social media. While that's not necessarily a negative or new concept in itself, the conundrum is that this leaves people like yourself and I
pitted in a situation where we are left fending for almost any and every release (this is why i said, "Fukk it... RELEASE 15-20 SHOES A MONTH!"). With that kind of volume,
it gives you more room to be selective with the marquee releases and leaves the other for the beast - whereas they would have gone for the marquee jumpoffs for the sake of it.


The fukking raffle system is genius (for vendors) because it creates hype that never was. I mean, the Footlocker by my crib literally raffles EVERY GAWT DAMN SHOE!


For the most part, i've been quite fortunate to cop (see how Nike/demand manifests the idea that if you get a shoe, you were lucky to spend your money on it as if it was a
privilege? Fukk all that, but that's the reality of it) but nobody is getting in my damn wayyyy...



Once those Infrared VI's release.

Spoiler

I will pillage, dismantle, extract/masticate with sheer and utter thrust force somebody's RECTAL SPHINCTER IF I AIN'T GET A COUPLE!!! Ya deeg?!?!

I think hands down he has the greatest collection of all time even moreso than ray allen and jordan. 11:20 he said he's a casino owner. And y'all know Jordan and his gambling problem. I seriously think Jordan might have signed his shoes away for life to this nikka.

If those stealth 11's were to ever come out, it will be a massacre

i agree. @ the end when they're like "u got 5 minutes to impress us" i was like i was done after he showed those 13's signed by the whole team including phil
the women's size paranorman foams wtf

the main FTL I go to only raffles QS. I usually don't never win at those. I got lucky with the black grapes because someone didn't pick up there pair. They usually stack up on my size which is 10.5 so usually I can go over there by 9 AM and they still have my size. Only shoe this year that sold out quick was the Steel X. Much hype around these. I'm hoping the Laney fall under the radar a little.

Most of those VI will be copped by me. But I'm not going out my way anymore.

Hanon will once again be outfitting some tiger striped sneakers. This time around it’s the Onitsuka Tiger Colorado 85, a shoe that will be wearing a fiery suede look come November. Fans of the shop’s output will recognize the so-called “Wildcats” colorblocking as borrowed from their tough to track down Asics Gel Lyte III “Wildcat” combo from back in 2011.

Yeah I'm feeling these........

 

[THE K-MAN]

went ahead and pulled the trigger

 

[West Coast Avenger]

went ahead and pulled the trigger

I know I was the first nikka that said I would not cop or spend money on the XI's but these are nice.......I have to fight the temptation to give in......with the Laney's dropping next week I have to make some decisions.......

 

[bzb]

This is jus

this has to the goat nicekicks sneak peek video. never seen anything like it. the icing on the cake is how cool and humble this guy seems to be about his collection. and he wears them?! wow. big time to him for not coming off like a dikk about having what no one else has and also paying homage to his brother.
