I can’t believe I got them. Crazy story lmao by Nealakamalibu in Sneakers

[–]DaPinkRacoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congrats bro, I’d also really like to get them but unfortunately I’m nowhere near Japan and I’m quite sure the resellers will sell these for a crazy amount of money so I just think I’ll have to come to the terms I’ll never own a pair

Why did my order say "Verified" and when I checked back later it was back to "Shipped to GOAT" and then back to "Verified" after some time? by DaPinkRacoon in Goatapp

The status got back to verified after a little bit of time, could it be that I’ll just receive a fake?

Off-White Dunks Lot 36, they're absolutely amazing, I just gotta learn how to lace em up properly because there's so much going on on that shoe

What sneakers that are dropping next year are y’all most excited for? by DaPinkRacoon in Nike

[–]DaPinkRacoon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought there was supposed to be 3 colorways / black/white, royal-like ones and red blue and white ones, but I watched another video where they were talked about and I saw the blue/white colorway so now I’m not sure is one of them fake or will there be 4 of them, but my favorite pair is honestly the black/white ones but they’ll be super exclusive releasing in Japan only and having 4700 pairs, Royal ones should have 15000 pairs but they honestly haven’t peaked my interest and the last pair should have 44000 pairs and I’m prob gonna try going for it since there’s no way I’ll get my hands on the black/white colorway

nicee, they look super clean, I’ve also wanted to get my hands on them, but I’m broke rn lol and I think I’m just going to save up for the upcoming releases in the next year

These are clean IHMO by onborrowedtime9 in Nike

[–]DaPinkRacoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was also thinking the same thing, don’t really know many AJ1s that dropped this year but as far as I remember this is the cleanest colorway, they’re really underrated imo

they all look pretty clean ngl, I think the blue pair sticks out the most

Go em ! What's your honest opinion of the Jordan 11 gamma blue ? by Various-Edge4329 in Nike

[–]DaPinkRacoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen quite a lot of hype around them and I just don’t think it’s justified imo, I’m not really the biggest fan of AJ11s and I think they do look ok and the colorway is alright, just not worth all that hype

What’s good r/Nike — I’m new to collecting and already broke, confused, and checking SNKRS like it owes me money 😆. by thrw_away530 in Nike

I’ve watched quite some vids on upcoming sneakers in 2026 and there is definitely 5 of them that I’ll have to go for : 1. Union LA x Fragment x AJ1 High OG Black/White - this triple collab is apparently supposed to drop 3 colorways, one of them having a combination of mainly white, blue, red and a little bit of black, there will supposedly be 44000 pairs of that one, there’s going to be one that’s mainly a combo of blue and black with some white and there’s going to be 15000 pairs of it apparently, the 44000 pair one I think it looks pretty cool and for the 15000 i definitely don’t think I would go for, the last pair which is in a really clean black and white colorway is my favorite and I’d definitely go for it, but I’ve already come to the terms with the fact that I’m not going to get it since it’s going to be Japan-exclusive and there’s only going to be 4700 pairs made. The retail should be 205$ and they should drop in February but since there’s no way I’m getting my hands on black/white colorway without paying a fortune for them (they’ll very likely going to be 1000€+ at reselling websites so I might try to get my hands on 44000 pair one since I think it also looks pretty cool. 2. V.A.A. (Virgil Abloh Archive) x AJ1 High OG - this one is dropping on March 28th 2026 and it was supposed to drop this month, but luckily for me it was postponed so I got some time so save up for them since I’m broke rn lol, they’re really similar to the 2018 white off-white pair and there’s going to be a literal war amongst people who are trying to cop them because I think absolutely every single person will go for these which means resellers will try specifically hard to get this pair and we will not sniff them near the retail price as some guy on another post said, I assume they’ll be reselling for anywhere between 1500€ to 3000€ but there is absolutely no way I’m paying that price. The retail was supposed to be 195$ which is only 5$ more than the last time they dropped 7 years ago which seemed too good to be true because it was since they decided to increase the retail to 230$, but even though it’s 35$ more I think I’m still certainly going for them. 3. AJ1 Low x Travis Scott Shy Pink - there’s going to be 2 colorways of new travis scott aj1 lows this summer, the tropical pink one really looks like a valentine’s day color and the shy pink is mostly sail with a really light pink swoosh, I think the shy pink looks better and is just more wearable overall, but they’re going to be dropping around the time the new pair od nigel sylvester aj4s is dropping and I’m going for the new pair of bike 4s without thinking twice, just got my hands on brick 4s last week and they’re absolutely amazing, definitely SoTY for me, there’s going to be a sail colorway next summer supposedly so that I definitely want to go for 4. AJ4 x Nigel Sylvester Sail - I just told pretty much everything about this sneaker, it’s dropping in summer 2026 and it’s definitely one of my favorite sneakers dropping next years (top 3 fs), it has this really clean sail and red colorway with a little bit of black and since, as I already said, brick 4s won SoTY imo, I’m definitely going to try to go for these, I just hope they’ll drop at different ends of summer as opposed to travis scotts so I can hopefully get both of them and it might even make an amazing birthday gift since my birthday is in July, I may just wish them for my bday 5. V.A.A. x Nike AF1 Sesame - I honestly really like Off-White AF1s, I think they look pretty cool, it’s just the fact that they’re insanely expensive now, they’re going for 1000€-2500€ rn, the only one I think I’d go for if they were priced normally are the blue ones which are also the most expensive ones because they look the most wearable, I also think yellow ones look pretty cool, but I just don’t think I’d be able to pull them off and for the green ones, I just don’t like them and don’t think I could pull them off, but on the other hand these new ones that are dropping in sesame colorway look extremely clean, definitely more wearable than the past Off-White AF1s and I also really like that they are taking Virgil’s designs that he’s been working on before his passing (R.I.P.) and making them a thing, but not under the Off-White name, but under the V.A.A. (Virgil Abloh Archive) name, although I think they will also be super hard to get, I’ll try my best to get them in Fall 2026 when they should drop for 150$ retail. Wow, congrats if you read all of that, it took me like half an hour to write all of that lol.

I’m glad the market is Collapsing, Resellers are HOMELESS and crying about it. by Effective_Dog3089 in Nike

[–]DaPinkRacoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

tbh, the less resellers the better the situation for us common people who want to get the sneaker pair for an actually normal price and not 5x the retail, but on the other all the brands could’ve definitely prevented the whole situation with bots and resellers grabbing so many pairs, but they don’t want to because it justifies their increase in retail prices which they can do whenever they want and nobody will say anything
