New Balance

[Matt]

Y’all know I love me some Salehe and even more so some purple… but $275?!?!

No wonder the drop was 4 days ago and they still have most sizes available.

[Go For Chill]

Most of the NB collection. At what point does an interest become a problem?

[Matt]

I think you’re good. How do you like those Yurts? Does the whistle get in the way?

Also, love the J Crew New York’s. They’re on my list.

[Go For Chill]

@Matt The whistle takes some getting used to when driving. Other than that, I don't notice it. I wear my sneakers loose enough to pull them off without untying them, which means I can demo the whistle any time someone points out the "weird thing on the heel."

[Matt]

I was at a NB Outlet over the weekend and it was a total bust. Being a 10 makes it hard to find deals.

[Matt]

Size 10 that is. Looks wise I'd say i'm a solid 7.

[Go For Chill]

@Matt

I'm a 10 as well. I feel you.

Crazy story, on the J Crew NYCs. I stopped into J Crew for t-shirts at least a year after these dropped. This pair was just randomly sitting on a shelf. The manager said someone received them as a gift, didn't want them, and just returned them totally unworn! They were 2x retail on StockX at the time. I guess the guy just had no idea, nor did any of the sales associates, so I scooped them up for retail.

[Matt]

Thats amazing. Well bought.

[Matt]

the J Crew Grizzlies are great too. Those are high dollar as well. Since we're size buddies feel free to let me know if you need to shift anything

[SKT]

@Go-For-Chill absolutely no “problems” on the IH forum…just really really focused “interests”.

Great collection too

[Matt]

It's only a problem if you run out of storage space... in which case I'm happy to help.

@Go-For-Chill I was talking myself out of buying the "High Desert" 2002R's as "3 pairs is too many", your photo has given me the green light

[MTpockets]

Just dropped

[Bridger]

Peachy

[MTpockets]

LOL they call it Sunrise (with purple). But I don't see much purple on that.

[Matt]

@AdamJ I’ve got a $90 pair in my eBay cart right now. Hemming and hawing.

[goosehd]

@Matt Serious question for you sneaker heads: The pairs that you pick up are second hand new, slightly new/used, overstock, etc.? How does pricing normally work? Based upon demand and condition?

A lot like the denim community or completely different?

As you can tell, I know absolutely nothing about this…(and most other things in life).

[Gavin666]

Just picked up a pair of 9060’s and liked them so much bought a different colourway. A lot of the none UK/USA made are cheap looking and feeling but these are quality and super comfy.

[Matt]

I do new or like new and I just look for the best price. It’s all hype with sneakers. A totally hype based market.

[AdamJ]

@Matt I "bid" on StockX but it expired as I wasn't willing to meet asking. I'll give it another shot in a few weeks
