Took another L on trying to get the NMD R1. The line of the SF Adidas store is about 100 but still better than the line in China for these super hype shoes.... I WANT A PAIR!  |

Tried to use the new Launch service by End. to get a pair of the END. X ONITSUKA TIGER COLORADO 85 'BLUEBIRD.' So far it is hard to tell if I was successful. The shoe launched at 7:00AM EDT (I think. At least that was when the countdown indicated it would launch.) and I clicked the link in the email at 7:00:30 or so and took about 3:30 of the allotted five minutes to complete my order. I received two order confirmation emails at 7:20AM indicating I had placed two orders though I had only clicked submit once on the Launch site. Checking my End. account I see two orders (one says Pick and the other Order Received and my cart has 1 item (the shoe) indicating the color and size is not available). I've emailed Customer Service to say I only want one of the two orders and have not gotten a response. So we'll see how this plays out.  |

Anyone got sizing advice on PF Flyers? Say compared to Branock or Chucks?

I caved and bought a pair from resell. Nice! I noticed that on eBay and Grailed they've dropped below $200. Adidas came out couple NMDs in mesh. Those are retailed at 125. Don't get those and get the prime knit one ($185). Those are more dope... except no one except bot can get them online. Normally they sold out in less than a minute in normal size. |

Been trying to stay away from tennis shoes but the Stan Smith in Veg tan has my attention. This gray is nice too.  |

If you don't mind to wait, you maybe able to get them in retail. |

My latest and, if I can find the will, last pair of sneakers for a year or two. I really want a pair of this for the last four years now but the white color + $$$ makes the decision very difficult. Maybe one day.... |

Check this out!! $89 for a pair.... only downside is the same G model on waiting. I will probably get a white or black pair. https://www.reddit.com/r/frugalmalefashion/comments/4fwdq5/beckett_simonon_full_grain_leather_sneakers_promo/  |

Didn't get to handle it and he doesn't have any other leather lows to compare so can't help ya there, he did go tts like most of his sneakers |

Old school green suede Hamburgs. I got these late last fall, and haven't really worn them because they're not exactly winter shoes. Suede quality is very nice, but there are a lot of composite materials inside. Anyhow, I was telling my wife last night that as a kid in the late 70s, I had an almost identical pair in blue suede with white stripes . . . BUT, they were JCPenney USA Olympics brand, which made me significantly less cool amongst my peers.  |

Those look nice, though I'm not totally behind the price. As far as style goes, I like them, even if they seem to read a little pink when brand new. |

It is nice but the logo, leather laces and the high price make it an easy pass. |
