I grudgingly admit that I like those yes


Still wouldn't spend the money on 'em tho.

I was looking at getting these too had my eye on them for a while, do you know if they fit true to size?

Already bought a pair of triple white McQueens but might get these with the code as well and just keep the ones I like best.

Has a high retail price pushed up the resell price on these?

I don't know.

They went for £900. Madness.

I guess it doesn't matter how st it looks, if you put JORDAN on it, it will sell.

True but reselling within 24 hours of release for over three times RRP is just bks for something so ugly.

a lad I was at school with who is big in the fashion industry locally has just started his own sneaker company company up https://www.unseenfootwear.com/. Not my sort of thing though as I prefer the brash logos and colours.

Good luck to him if he's your mate but I think he's going to struggle with them. There's nothing to make them stand out from the crowd. They are really bland and generic IMO.

Being "big" in fashion, you'd think he'd have more imagination.

After walking 15 miles in the snow, ice and salt, my NFRs are officially... used. As it should be.

Really fancied the purple lobster dunks, if only to get membership of the fabled purple trainer crew, got a phone call at 0758 with some crap i needed to sort out straight away. By the time i had come free they had sold out frown

If anyone has a pair of size 8’s and for whatever reason decides against keeping them please let me know!

You'll be lucky. Resellers love the Lobsters. Red, blue and yellow and insanely priced so no reason to think the purples wouldn't follow.
