The Sneakers/Shoe Thread - Part 2

[Hisashiburi]

Should get true to size.
I wear usual 8.5 and also the same for nmd mesh and ultra boost.

the nmd release by adidas this round , i think the shoes are quite common, i see some online site also releasing them but on later dates... so i think its not really necessary to queue for it..

btw if im a us8 converse / adidas superstar wearer, what size shld i get for NMD ?

1 question , the nmd the white base material seems like Styrofoam, will it get spoiled easily or turn yellowish or get stained easily ?

 

[szeli]

To be honest, it doesn't age gracefully. 2-3 months of frequent wear, can see dings and tiny holes in the grooves between the "bubbles" and the colour becomes yellowish. On top of that it also gets stained by mud and sand and i can see small chocolate colour stains on the white mid sole. The upside is its more comfortable to wear compared to most other sneakers.

my nmd boost turn yellowish on some spot after like 1-2months of wear. cannot clean away
hope to get some new nmds for the releases on 18th online!

Not sure if it helps, my first gen Adidas Energy Boost was US9 while my Mesh NMD was US8. Really weird cos the NMD even though size 8 feels more roomy than my Energy Boost.

now when I see ppl wearing yeezy for some reason my 1st impression is its prob fake? y wud anyone spend that ton of $ for just 1 sneaker?

Some people think buying fake are acceptable if the original is super scarce. Apart from that many people like following trends to fit in, so they wouldn't mind shilling out tons of cash for that purpose. And then there are those that have money, so they might as well go for whatever costs the most.

I managed to get one online at 10:02. Waited like a minute in the countdown page, have all the address saved so just had to type in the credit card info and voila, copped.

When I got to the checkout, it said only 2 pairs left so they probably have 2-3 pairs for each size, each model for sale online.
