Someone posted it yesterday on a sneakers group i'm a member of on Facebook.

I was on snkrs. I didn't even realise there was a separate Nike app! Not really sure why they have separate apps.
Ahh I see, want to be more in the know about drops and restock if possible, I found out a minute before I posted here which is cutting it fine. I don't want to state the obvious but it's a bit like adidas and confirmed but with the dunk having hype I was suprised it was on the normal app and not sneakrs.
There's options to pay for it in the cook groups.

If you want free then it's a case of following people on Twitter / Instagram. I follow this Twitter account but am barely on Twitter and don't get the notifications so it's a bit pointless: https://twitter.com/thesolerestocks

Then there's Facebook groups (if you use Facebook) and I have a free app called HEAT MVMNT which has a calendar and gives alerts about releases / restocks - although it's not always great.

Depends how dedicated you are to getting the latest info.

I'm really struggling with the sizing of some of the sneaks at the minute.

I bought some of the recent elephant print air max 1's in a UK6.5 and they are BIGGER side by side vs my UK7 red anniversary air max 1's.
Is anyone else finding this at the minute with general sizing?

I use the droplist app, there are other specific ones for Adidas, end and size that I have but droplist has most things in the one place.

Over the last few days I've been wearing my Jordans that I bought a few weeks ago, but never got the chance to wear. I have to say they are extremely comfortable to walk in, if a little tricky to squeeze into at first, but I guess that's because they are highs?

A cook group is a community which people pay to be part of. The group contains information which isn't widely available about new releases, restocks, raffles etc. Some of them have information about botting and helpful tips depending if you go for those groups.

It's questionable how good the information is and some groups are fully subscribed so they won't even take your money if you try to hand them it.

I've got a few already. Although can't help but feel rather unimpressed with release and can see Nike's attempt to cash in on the SB brand.

Got a pair of the SB 4’s incoming and looking at the release calendar so far, I’m struggling to see a better pair in the horizon - too early to call shoe of the year?!

Still plenty of skate shop raffles to have a pop at out there for this trying….

Is it just me or is there something slightly jarring about the incoming AM1 big bubble? I just cannot seem to get on with the looks of it.

Thought people for most of the last 2 months declared the Jordan 3 white cement as shoe of the year hehe

I'm personally very unimpressed with the SB 4.

Is there? I love it!

Unless it's just a case of you being so used with the current air bubble / window that the "big" version messes with your perception?

Do you often enter raffles for shoes you are very unimpressed with?! Life’s far to short for that imo

Got to be much pickier now due to lack of space so the 3’a were an easy pass for me.

Perhaps I’m being too much of a traditionalist, I might change my opinion if I see a pair in person but at the moment it bigger bubble does nothing for me except put me off them.
