I ended up getting a W on the OW 5's as well. Box came today. They look really dope. I kinda regret that I already sold them. :-/
All time classic, cant go wrongWhat's the consensus on Stan Smiths?
Looking forward to Spring/Summer and need some suggestions.

Grats! Interesting colorway too.
They didn't say whether it was the special box version in the email and I'm not really fussed about that anyway tbh
🙋♂️Anyone alse eyeing up the Jordan 1 Paris Lows? Really liking that colourway.

I like the materials on those but the colours just don't do it for me.
fwiw, nobody should ever pay full price for CPs because they're almost constantly on sale. During the height of markdown season (summer and Nov - Jan) you can pick up a pair for basically the same price as retail Yeezys or whatever.
I love mids 🤷♂️
At least I'm not the only one then!
No way we're copping these anyways, but it's worth a try. Btw they only accept credit card.
Fully prepared for my L. And the credit card thing is cool but cheers for the heads up.No way we're copping these anyways, but it's worth a try. Btw they only accept credit card.
It's up! Apparently a 30 minutes raffle... bots are gonna grab all them pairs.Fully prepared for my L. And the credit card thing is cool but cheers for the heads up.
Hope u got urs in time, because the raffle just closed.I entered once because of the ip thing. About to get my brother to do another entry for me
Nah. just one entry I got in. He has a skateboard shop close to his house so if they get them in he will try to get a pair for me
The durability is good. However many companies make really good alternatives, with good quality leather too but cheaper (Common Projects have that brand name tax). If you're in US check out Koio, UK check otu Artisan Labs. Theres actaully quite a few more brands that do this silhoutter just forgot their names. Literally search Common Projects alternatives on youtube and you'll find em.What's the durability like on these? Might save up if the quality is truly worth the price
There's no need for gatekeeping, just because someone has more disposable income to spend on shoes or if someone knows every silhouette in the sneaker scene. You're a sneakerhead if u like sneakers, simple as that.I'm what someone might consider a would-be sneaker head. If I had more disposable income, I'd probably dive headlong into actually buying and collecting sneakers, but as is, I tend to just consume media that's sneaker-related and cheer shit on from the sidelines, at a somewhat casual level of investment. I watch Complex Sneaker Shopping on YouTube (even if I don't know who the heck the guest is, because it opens the door to a whole wide world of sneakers I would otherwise not know anything about), check back on Nike, Adidas, Vans websites like every other week to see what kind of new styles are rolling in (but seldom buy due to the aforementioned budget issues), and honestly I just glance at people's feet all the time in public to catch what kind of kicks they're wearing (but I don't ever pipe up about it).
I have come to see if I can creep out my knowledge base even more in this thread, even if I can barely discuss and critique the world of sneakers on the same level as most of the users here. I love a good pair of shoes, and even moreso if they are stylin' af.
I admit, I think I have bought more shoes in the last few years than at any point in my life, and I currently have a pretty basic assortment of sneakers I rotate through based on my outfit and mood, currently with 8 "active" pairs of shoes, though I wasn't hardcore enough in my selection of any of them to tell folks exactly what their release date was and exactly what model/colorway they are... But still, I shall observe, I shall hold this would-be dream of someday crossing over into full sneakerhead territory, and I shall enjoy it.

If you like something, and you can afford it, then buy it. And most importantly wear it. You don't need to overthink things.I'm what someone might consider a would-be sneaker head.
