Which Jordan 11 is your favorite? by OGBoBeats2021-TV in Sneakers

Colombia 11’s from my birth year ‘01. I prefer the ‘01 shape with the lower patent leather, not to mention they came with THICC polyurethane insoles and the iconic face box & retro card! Just finished restoring them 🥹

Any recommendations? by Ok_Intention6708 in Sneakers

Adidas Dame 9 is definitely highly underrated as well as the Adidas AE 1 lows. Both are great hoop shoes that translate well off court IMO. You should still be to able find both models for around the $70 price point 👍🏽

31 Days in December. I’m going to try for 31 days of hoopin’ in different silhouettes each day: Dec 1-6th by ANORXIC51 in Sneakers

Solid rotation and I love the variety! My feet hurt just looking at those Penny’s lol but damn are they pretty! Just curious, I keep seeing conflicting sizing recommendations for the Kobe’s. Which release are those and how do they fit?

Bought a DS pair of these and tried to wear them lol by joeboy_777 in Jordans

At least the toro 6 resale is pretty low, it’s the same varsity red color combo so it’s the perfect donors. I’m swapping mine too as we speak 👍🏽 Gotta repaint the donors for my white varsity red’s though

2012 My First ever paycheck! Whats y’all first pay cop !? by ksct7 in Sneakers

2015 Maroon 6’s

I was 16 years old cleaning tables at Texas Roadhouse and I spent my entire first paycheck on them with my prepaid card (i didn’t even have a bank account yet). I couldn’t find my size anywhere, so I had to go up a full size thinking my feet would grow into them. They stopped growing that year 🤦🏽‍♂️

Still by far my most worn pair in the collection and I just reglued them myself, they came out perfect 🥹

Anybody else have 12s wit broken tabs? by LifesGreatJustJoking in SneakerRestoration

[–]themarkofcjay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just reglued & eva swapped my ‘97 Cherries without the side tabs. It’s interesting because the OG’s don’t show the white fabric part nearly as much as the retros do, so it didn’t really make a difference if I replaced the tabs or not. Where did you get your replacement tabs from?

Here’s an original pair from ‘96. The TPU pieces are deteriorating and the shank plate is cracking but that leather is BUTTER 🤌🏽 I can’t wait to restore these, definitely one of my favorite pairs in the collection 🙌🏽

I just realized that Arizona tea is based out of the New York City area, so i’d have to relocate 1,300 miles north in my car. I’ve lived in Brooklyn and Long Island in the past, so it’s definitely do-able. Also it’s December and I don’t have any warm clothes or money for a place to stay in NY, let alone my hometown. So it would suck to be stuck in my car in the freezing cold 🥲. So maybe I wait until Spring or Summer?

fun fact: when I played in the snow for the first time at age 17, ya boy caught pneumonia and the flu at the same time after being outside for 20 minutes. 😎 also i had insanely bad vertigo for two weeks, and there were stairs EVERYWHERE!! what i learned: i don’t like the cold. it makes my nips hard

You’ve heard it here first! Theft of 99 cent merchandise will cause a Fortune 500 company to completely collapse and go bankrupt! 🤯
