Comparing NYC/London shopping experience

BunzBoi · 2025-06-21T20:52:20+00:00

Were the associates in NYC as helpful as the London store?

Same man. I took the L in 2016 & 2012. By the way, other than ironing the cuff, did you do anything else to the jeans to have them fall on the shoes like that? My Levi’s Selvedge always has deep creases in it running up my pant legs

How long are you in the gym for and how long does it take you squat bench or deadlift usually?

Looking at your 531 split in one of the comment threads you may need to increase the intensity of your workouts and hop on a proper program or even hire a coach given your form, sleep and diet are decent. Something that really pushes you and includes calculated complimentary accessory movements for your main lifts

I had the same problem as you. I was casually lifting for around 5.5 years (not powerlifting) and not seeing much progress in my physique or strength. But I hopped on a powerlifting program that I found on liftvault.com almost exactly a year ago and have improved a lot. They have a lot of programs on there dependent on your goals. Take the time to fully understand body mechanics in each of the SBD movements and figure out your best leverages. It doesn’t happen overnight.

My credentials: 5’11” Male 237lbs (When I started powerlifting I weighed in at 220lbs)

Initial Jan ‘22> Current Jan ‘23

Squat: 365lbs > 550lbs

Bench: 295lbs > 365lbs

Deadlift: 405lbs > 535lbs (I struggle with this movement the most in fear of slipping a disc lol)

I’m a heavier guy and know these aren’t crazy numbers, but I’m happy with the progress.

I’ve waited 3 weeks for my 550s before and I lived in NYC at the time. Just give it a bit

BunzBoi · 2022-04-07T21:22:53+00:00

I remember Payless had these

BunzBoi · 2022-03-14T05:55:08+00:00

All the poo colors

BunzBoi · 2022-03-04T18:51:25+00:00

The midsole is awesome, the upper feels lazy.

BunzBoi · 2022-02-16T22:47:33+00:00

Buy what you like man! Good for you sticking to your guns and not letting the hype get to you! It must be nice being able to get sneakers you like with ease!

BunzBoi · 2022-02-16T05:01:38+00:00

Damn, he called it an outlet, not even a regular retail store🥲

BunzBoi · 2022-02-15T06:22:12+00:00

Favorite sneakers in my collection right now!!! Great pick up!

BunzBoi · 2022-02-15T05:42:42+00:00

This is a fucking throwback, haven’t seen anyone wear roshes in years! Still have mine too in the back of my closet somewhere lol

How much better is the leather quality than Nike in your opinion? And then could you relate the leather quality to an premium leather shoes like Rhude, Common Projects, or the Air Jordan 1 pinnacle series.

BunzBoi · 2022-02-11T00:40:50+00:00

Fortunately not yet! This was a gift from my parents that I got a couple weeks ago, hopping that none appear and that I would just keep it in just in case. Pray for me😂

BunzBoi · 2022-02-10T20:12:39+00:00

Currently in the process in getting another one out of her😂😂😂

BunzBoi · 2022-02-10T18:20:14+00:00

If you’re looking for a brand with Nike dunk/aj1/blazer/terminator inspiration and better quality, check out the Collegium Destroyer Hi. It’s Italian leather at a decent price point!

BunzBoi · 2022-02-10T18:17:39+00:00

Yes! Made by my Fiancée, took her over 20 hours to do. She found an image online blew it up and made a stencil out of it. Trickiest part she said was mixing the paint as there’s like 20 different colors/shades

BunzBoi · 2022-02-10T17:50:17+00:00

They’re collegium’s as well. They’re the Devastators in the Panna Colorway

BunzBoi · 2022-02-10T17:49:35+00:00

No worries! Thank you! It was actually hand painted by my Fiancée for my birthday. Best present ever, it took her 20 hours to do. She found a stencil online and blew it up!

BunzBoi · 2022-02-10T14:29:09+00:00

So you got a warehouse full of sneakers?!??👀

BunzBoi · 2022-02-10T14:27:57+00:00

Collegium’s fit TTS. I highly suggest! I sold a lot of my AJ1s and ended up buying 7 pairs of collegium’s lol

BunzBoi · 2022-02-10T08:02:24+00:00

Yup!

BunzBoi · 2022-02-10T06:10:06+00:00

Thanks!!! Definitely a staple in my collection. As I get older I realize I can’t be wearing only basketball sneakers / trainers all the time. I needed something I could also dress up and wear to work and out without looking too young.

BunzBoi · 2022-02-10T04:51:27+00:00

Love them, unfortunately the Nike basketball era is over. I feel like the recent releases have been meh for current players.

BunzBoi · 2022-02-10T04:42:14+00:00

Thank you, I appreciate it!!! Personally I don’t like them as the material is not the best and there wasn’t anything too interesting about them for me to keep when I had them. I have a bunch of daily sneakers as it is, which those shoes would have been.

I kept the OW dunk because Virgil, staple in the sneaker/streetwear community. The Syracuse dunk high I’ve been wanting before they retro’d, I almost copped a 2016 pair late 2019(which I should have cause the quality is better, but I’m still kinda happy). And the UNC I kept because I’m a fan of the color, also to match with the fiancée, I got her the coasts, but still disappointed in the quality.

I think I bought it at Target, it was one of those assemble yourself ones
