Buying sneakers these days has got beyond a joke. Almost impossible without a bot it seems.

That's one of the reasons I got out of " the sneaker game"… Hype beasts and resellers killed the game

Scalpers. Whether it's sneakers, tickets, or anything else they're awful humans.
@spitfiredealer I'm going to take a guess and say the Jordan III's eluded you this morning?

Wasn’t a good day.

Ouch all three! I'm considering making an attempt at the Jordan XIs releasing on the 31st but I don't have high hopes.

Are you guys using the SNKRS app?

^isn't that only available in the US?
-
Possibly… I’ve had the app for years and I believe it gives you early access to the releases.

I'm in the U.S. but have never used the phone app just the site via my Mac. I do have a SNKRS login but have only used it twice and was lucky enough to get the shoes I wanted one of those times (the other time I struck out on getting a pair of the Off White air maxes). In general I pay attention to releases but almost never actually buy any pairs. Seems to be a recurring theme with people not getting the shoes they are gunning for though.
-
I have tried both the app and the site and keep pulling L’s.
I read the bred toes were pretty easy to cop in the states but sold out in minutes over here. Perhaps Nike just doesn’t drop the numbers in Europe compared to the states. Or maybe we just got more asshole resellers!

ah. i've given up on nike releases. if i really wanted a pair, i could probably get my hands on one. but given the way it's been released and with the whole reseller market about it. i'd simply pass.

The selling market in denim and workwear is generally much fairer than the streetwear and sneaker market, i’ve tried to buy a few things from recent Supreme drops for my boys birthday, it is literally insane.
-
I think denim and workwear is usually bought by a older crowd plus it’s not so hyped by some celebrity. So the kids aren’t thirsty for it. If Travis Scott or some other shit rapper starts buying IH we are all in trouble.
I love old supreme but highly unlikely I will ever buy any of new gear. As for Nike I am getting pretty close to calling it a day on their new releases too.
Mega you not got any of your old supreme gear stashed for Tommy?

I'm glad IH doesn't use celebrities to promote their stuff (not that they'd need to).

Sneakers are a young mans game

@spitfiredealer , I only saved one old item of Supreme, which was the Lion Of Jeddah hoodie from about 2004. When I think back on my 2 box logo hoodies, coke box logo, Bape box logo, 9/11 box logo, Harajuku box logo….if I had kept it all I could have paid for his University fee’s / bail costs
-
Haha probably could of bought him his first car too!!
I find a fair bit of older gear pops up on yahoo.jp auctions for reasonable prices and a lot in smaller sizes if you are ever after stuff for him.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Me too. I am sure there is a few out there that have purchased IH but thankfully it’s not getting the kids hyped up for it.

Can a German tell me what this means?.. Does the buyer have to contact the customs office or what?..
