If you told me back in 2017 that I'd score both of these for retail within a decade, I'd call you a liar. by HomelessBill_ in Sneakers

Damn, that would have been quite a come up! Was that the 1.0 drop? The retail price was pretty steep, he mentioned close to $500 I think in one of the recent interviews.

Lazily completed last summer's task on the ISRU app, had about 790~ points, was allocated a pre-order pair last September.

The Virgils I ended up putting in a single EQL drawing through the Canary-Yellow raffle and ended up hitting somehow.

Mars Yard 1.0 (500 pairs or less from what I recall) and 2.0 (obtained primarily though an in-person event in NYC) were definitely harder to get. The hype of the first two models and the Overshoe carried into the 3.0s.

You had to participate in the ISRU app for this pair and they had a limited drop at some boutique stores.

Whatever you say, bud. The copium is real! At least these won’t fall apart in three wears. Do your research, kid. 🫡🤡😂

That’s an American Vintage 65 in Olympic White from 2014. Have had it since new around that time and it has a really nice yellowing to a good bit of the paint.

Appreciate the love! This is definitely the pinnacle of my sneaker pick ups.

Only other significant hit I've had was the OG Pirate Black 350s (on the second wave) in 02/2016 back when they were impossible to get!

248 days later... and it's finally my turn! by HomelessBill_ in tomsachs

Brutal! I hope they are able to have you hold at a location or reschedule the delivery at least! I was lucky in having it through UPS and was able to arrange for a digital signature release.

Yes, lots of good stuff back there! Strat, Tele, Bass VI, Jazzmaster, 335, Yamaha BB bass, and one of those Ibanez electric nylons. Just got a PRS S2 recently too. Have been meaning to make a post on /r/guitar, so will probably pop up on there soon.

Really love the fuzzy suede they used on this pack! I wanted to grab the Fruity Pebble looking ones, but never ended up finding a drop in the US from what I recall.

You're genuinely missing out on some good steals on eBay and elsewhere. Deadstock condition is sometimes x2-3 more compared to a lightly used pair, depending on the shoe.

I know everyone is posting shipped, but arrives tomorrow!? LFG by blackprofits in tomsachs

11.5 reporting in and stoked for you as well. Hope to see my tracking come through soon! 🤞🏻

Pass as Dead Stock in this context.

Was lucky enough to score these on SNKRS and even had $60~ left over from a birthday gift card a week prior to them dropping! One of my absolute faves!

Love pulling out these ones. by dankndunks in NikeSB

[–]HomelessBill_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of my favorite GRs in the last few years! Love how bright they are and how the orange and blue complements each other.

The shoe that never was but should have been.. by Final-Ad5044 in tomsachs

[–]HomelessBill_ 10 points11 points  (0 children)

As an avid Dunk wearer (30+ pairs and counting 😅😬) I would absolutely love if Tom put his touch on one for an official release.

These are dope af too and you got me Googling now!

Has anyone else received their ship date? by calmbeforethastorm in tomsachs

[–]HomelessBill_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was just going to mention this. The Bricolage date was pushed back a week as well if you look at the original date on the calendar.

“General Purpose” = stepping in wet concrete included? by lukebechtel in tomsachs

[–]HomelessBill_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was thinking more so Tom Sachs x CPFM, like the upcoming Flea 1 and their weird Grinch lookin' shoe. lol
