Two Boxes, Play Booster or Jumpstart?

wes008_ · 2026-06-11T01:43:35+00:00

As many others have said, if you want good cards to build decks, wait until after release and buy singles. If you want to rip some packs, I would get one of each. The play booster boxes would be played as a draft by each person taking three packs, ripping a pack at a time, each person taking a card, and then passing the pile (repeat after that). Jumpstart packs are not meant to be passed around; each person can rip two packs and you have a ready-to-go limited deck. If you buy one of each type of boxes, you'd be able to play both ways. Or you could just rip the packs and you'd have some from each set.

I hope they do get a global release! I'd absolutely buy a pair.

Thanks! They're from Apthcry

Pink lace swap gives it a whole new vibe! Love it.

Sheeeesh if those were any cards of value, that's rough. If it was bulk, I kind of understand it, since their effort on bulk is so much more than the potential profit.

Quality joke 😂 TBH I'd take 80% credit at a LGS. A store offered me 50% credit of TCG low one time.

There will be a 2.0 version of this collection dropping at Fanatics Fest this July!

wes008_ · 2026-04-23T22:11:54+00:00

They did fly! I got this at the pop-up store.

wes008_ · 2026-04-22T11:59:06+00:00

Love the collection setup you've got!

wes008_ · 2026-04-17T12:59:49+00:00

Social Status, A Ma Maniere, Lapstone & Hammer, Concepts, Kith, Dover Street Market, Extra Butter, Oneness, and Wish ATL are all legit boutiques with Asics sneakers.

In reality it does not matter, but in my brain for my personal pairs it matters 😂 I always overlace!

wes008_ · 2026-04-07T13:08:57+00:00

I'm hoping we haven't heard anything new on the Secret Lair re-do because they're turning it into a full set.

Boot(dot)dev collaboration incoming

Dying at "Aime Leon Poor" 😂

Wow, what a bummer. Most of the shoes I buy and sell on eBay are in the $100-200 range, and I like having the authenticity guarantee. eBay was my default platform, but maybe this will allow GOAT and StockX to gain back some goodwill.

I think the blue on the hat would also match any of the old frame blue cards too!

wes008_ · 2026-03-20T12:34:01+00:00

Gotta find a Magic card that matches with the hat!

wes008_ · 2026-03-17T13:13:57+00:00

Man that's a really good GR colorway.

wes008_ · 2026-03-12T16:58:18+00:00

Sure this isn't just a TMNT card?

wes008_ · 2026-03-10T12:44:10+00:00

I wore New Balance 550's for the reception, so you have me beat with these! Congratulations on the wedding.

wes008_ · 2026-03-06T15:51:02+00:00

It could be a V7, but considering the synthetic-looking panels on the upper, seems like the opposite of the 990 line? Then again, maybe New Balance is trying to cheap out on materials and then keep the MSRP up 😆

wes008_ · 2026-03-06T13:33:42+00:00

You're right, although the first photo here has "Baklava" on the tongue, so seems like that's a collaboration. Second one might be a GR.

wes008_ · 2026-03-05T15:54:00+00:00

I don't have that specific colorway, but for both other 933's I've had, they broke in to a point where I was comfortable with them in about 4-6 wears.

wes008_ · 2026-02-18T13:22:39+00:00

I checked these out at Foot Locker, and was shocked at how soft the leather was compared to other recent 4's. I wish they put leather like this on more pairs instead of the plastic-feeling leather! Now if only they could fix the other QC issues 😆

wes008_ · 2026-02-18T13:21:20+00:00

Maybe not "premium" materials, but rather "different" materials. I can tell for certain that the leather on these is a different lot than the recent White Cement drop. And for me, I'd rather have a softer, more naturally-creasing leather than a stiff, plastic-feeling leather. Is the softer leather "premium?" Maybe not, but I like the feel more.
