No. Just ask them to label them as a gift or low value item in the message box on the order page, and they happily oblige.

You can Whats App them with any questions on this number:- +34 693 60 25 86
Good to know, you pleased with them I presume?

Very. Won't wear them until summer though.

Don't want them getting wet and they are a definite summer colourway.

Do you pay resale for Js?

I honestly can't believe how difficult it is to get one's hands on Jordan 1s - even mids are now very bloody hard to get. Couple of years ago, no-one bothered with mids!
Yes and no.

Because literally every 14-year old weeb thinks he can make his fortune off reselling these days, most releases which aren't Tier 1 are still bought by resellers but it's a race to the bottom. So before each release, I put in bids on StockX where the final price including fees is +/- 50p of the RRP and just keep that bid in there. There's a lot of competition with resellers so I usually end up winning. The black/gold Jordan 1s I posted were ultimately bought for retail but from StockX smile

Summer colourway that's more Miami South Beach than Manchester Ship Canal, though. wink

Hmm.

So if one is clever with the use of Stock X then?

I'll give that a go.

Uni blues are on SNKRS now. I really need these in my life. The different hue on the sole is slightly irksome but I'm guessing it won't be too noticeable in the flesh.

Had a look on the site, and seen some darker ones.
Will be ordering - bonus is that they are on sale as well ....

Will also send msg to ask them to mark as gift (they are)

Thanks for the heads up.

They're lovely aren't they! Trying my luck on the Jordan 1 London this week, although they aren't showing in SNKRS yet.

These are beaut, aren't they? Though, I'd say I'm probably more excited for the Hyper Royals from the photos I've seen.

Been quiet and not really frequenting here lately since a change of jobs etc but lockdown hasn't stopped me from purchasing, managed to nab the Mocha 1's via an Offspring restock and a pair of Fire Red AJ4's. Have since also won a raffle for the Taupe Haze, looking forward to seeing what they're like in hand.

I am definitley waiting for the hyper royals, to match the turbo greens (easily one of the most underrated of 2019)

I don't suppose someone could recommend a place I could get some Air Jordan 4s from? I do like the PSG version, but anything will do. Will consider some 5s as well. UK size 8, dunno why but buying from eBay bothers me a little. Thanks.

StockX or Goat, probably. The PSG4 really is a lovely shoe (in a lovely box).
