So yesterday I saw a ton of posts about #niketalk having it’s 19th anniversary. Believe it or not - the first time I visited niketalk it was through a modem on my Motorola Razr plugged into my laptops

Hit up the flea market the other day and came across a couple of 15 year old gems in my size. $25 each. I suppose I could have picked them up for around retail 15 years ago, but waiting 15 years saved

What do you think when you see something like this? Nike Air Max Plus 'Tiger' retros coming in with clear toeguards (if I recall correctly the OGs had black toeguards) completely covered in inconsiste

(3/3) And this is the last pic of the Royal 1s that I’ll post illustrating my point. This is one of the more inconsistent pairs I’ve come across. The right shoe with that #baggy leather and the left s

(1/3) The Jordan 1 Royal retro from 2017 was an interesting shoe. I saw a few pairs and noticed something strange...It appeared that the leather on the toe box of one of the shoes was far more ‘plasti

"Sorry, sir, but these Olympic 6s have some serious glue problems." There's also this little stain (top left) just above the glue stains that I've never seen on any other shoe before. This pair was in

Now back the the grading. KEEP IN MIND THESE ARE ALL DEADSTOCK PAIRS!!! This past summer - I saw probably 30 pairs of Travis Scott Jordan 4s and each and every single pair I saw had horrible quality c

1997-1998, I was a senior in High School. Up until that point, the only high school athletic team I made was the Golf team. Seriously. I played a lot of basketball after school with my friends but we

Anyone out there own these? How’s the sizing? When I first saw these @adidas x Rick Owens runners I thought ‘hmmm, now those are kinda extra’. And then I heard about this dude @rickowensonline through

What was the first thing YOU started collecting? When I was a kid, I didn’t really watch baseball before I started collecting baseball cards. I grew up in a house that didn’t have cable TV so collecti

One of my Grail of Grails. Nike Air Max Plus III. Overseas (EU and AUS) people go crazy for this model and TNs in general. I once saw some news in Niketalk back around 2007 where someone said they had

Imagine this was a hyped release (ie: sold out). Imagine you got 'lucky' on the #snkrs app and was able to cop in your size. Now imagine this is what you received from Nike. It's kinda difficult to se
Nov 27, 2018
So this is kinda my thinking behind sneaker grading...Imagine every single pair of Concord XIs that released in this last surprise drop came out with some form of 'amputee Jumpmans' (shout-out to @fbc

And for the last shout-out of this Black Friday... I've been following this dude for a couple of years now and @fbccbayarea has been creating HIS OWN SHOES. Not like Nike IDs or Sole Swaps, but like d

Check it out - here's enough pairs of NMDs on sale for a centipede to wear! @sneakersteal posted the pic of all the NMDs on sale the other day and it wasn't even Black Friday. I've heard that @nike is
Nov 23, 2018
I haven't really ever participated in Black Friday as I've never been good at the whole 'wait in line' thing. And when people start getting pushy my first instinct is to act like I'm @thenotoriousmma

I love Pegasus 83’s...probably one of the least interesting sneakers to most ‘sneakerheads’. They’re especially good as beaters and for those early morning skateboard sessions when the older (young) o

Jordan 1 x Lebron 1...interesting concept...no idea if it is just indeed a concept or an official image... My favorite comment on the original post: "NO. NO. NO." from @sneakerdave 😂 Personally I'm do

Sneak peak @kporzee #adidas crazy explosives PE! Looks like the inspiration was taken from Clyde Frazier’s wardrobe! (Courtesy of @knicksfantv @werkynprogres )

Anyone else catch the Nike Pegasus 83 mold taken from the mud used to solve a murder in Netflix's "I am a Killer"? I geek out on stuff like this...

A couple more factory flaws DMd to me yesterday... personally, if I were at the store buying some and and the clerk brought a pair with a factory flaw (like this) and put it next to a perfect pair, I’
Aug 31, 2018
For those of you that doubt factory flaws happen (see my last post) - this is a ‘factory flaw’ I got directly IN STORE from @niketownsf . I paid full retail for this pair 5+ years ago. That means the
Aug 30, 2018
Sounds like a realistic price. I have no idea the actual number of SBB1s released, but assuming it’s around a million pairs...is €125k worth it for a one in a million variant? I’m sure the baseball ca
