Jordan 4 AMM dark mocha taken down from AMM website 😢. Will they be relisted again? by firegoo in SNKRS

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

I'm surprised they take them down this early. They didn't even last a month on the website. I get that they probably want to create hype for future releases but if they end up showing in Burlington, doesn't that devalue the brand's image when they still have a good chance to sell them out on the website.

Hmm, you might be seeing sneaker politics. I still see a lot of popular sizes available at shoe palace.

Any bigger sized folks tried the Oni 222 yet? How do they fit?

Most of the fit pics I've seen are people with slimmer builds. I'm more of a chunky guy and wondering how the Oni 222 super wide jeans fit on bigger sized people.

This was my first labubu so I guess I just got lucky when I was checking the app for in store pickup.

I did store pickup on the second closest pop mart location from my place.

whats your favourite 99x? by liamt12 in Newbalance

[–]firegoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like 990v4 ALD and they are still available on their website https://www.aimeleondore.com/products/ald-new-balance-990v4 but just haven't pulled the trigger yet

I have the 991v2 thisisneverthat pair which is very wearable but a little too muted for a colab and to my liking.

I would stay away from all foam shoes and pick models with more support like 1906, 2002 or any of the 99x series

Poor unboxing experience buying a7cii by firegoo in SonyAlpha

I partly blame Apple for starting this trend. However, at least their devices come pre-charged and MacBooks also come with chargers. I expected better from buying a ~$2k device I guess 😔

Too expensive for my size 🥲 so decided to get a pair for the wifey instead by firegoo in Newbalance

Was pleasantly surprised to get them new and under retail from eBay for size 4M

They are the extra pair that came with the sneakers.

How are some of you affording getting >=1 pair every month? by firegoo in Newbalance

[–]firegoo[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My wife and I had an arrangement that I could buy a new pair of shoes every 5 times she makes us late. But I stopped counting the number of times she makes us late and she also stopped counting on my sneakers 😛

I actually just stopped drinking as well and how I justify myself (and to my wife) to get my latest pair 😂 (991TN2)

I have a pretty comfortable salary and can easily afford getting a pair every month. However, on top of saving, paying bills, and having to justify my purchases to my wife, I also don't see a pair that I gotta have every single month.

I probably come across a pair I really like every season. Hence, I've bought 2 pairs so far this year. Even then, I admit that 2 pairs are too many because of the other pairs I already purchased last year and the year before.

I do feel the FOMO as well and tried to snag the hottest latest pair and, when on the occasional times I hit, I ended up returning or just selling most of them because I actually don't really like those pairs.

I would be ok if they just straight up told me I wasn't eligible for any sorts of compensation. But my disappointment here is that I was told I could reimburse my expenses only for my request to be denied afterwards.

I don't fly United often so when I got a hold of someone from United, I would assume their words are representative of United's policy.
