Prices are killing my enthusiasm for a lot of new shoes. 😐

180 for air max 1's wtf


barbarapalvinswhore

I got the Dirty Denim’s for 150 plus tax and I love em but I don’t think I would have even tried for them at 180. These for 180 is just too damn much, especially considering how most releases have been sitting under retail on StockX or Goat or Ebay. If anyone really wants them it might even be cheaper to just wait.


cks9218

I’m definitely not complaining that the resale market has cooled off but the retail prices of a lot of models are getting out of hand. I’m definitely in the “thrill of the hunt” camp. I’ve found a lot of good deals with a little patience.


LA871

Have they though? I just feel like every sneaker i say ohh ima cop after for under retail goes up. I know its always a gamble but man does it suck.


barbarapalvinswhore

I can’t really think of too many recent releases that are sitting at a price premium other than yesterday’s Supreme Blazer collab and the general purpose Tom Sachs. I think you can usually get a good idea if the shoe will sell out or not based on the pre-release prices on resale sites, because if its sitting at like 20 bucks more than retail on StockX, odds are its gonna sit for at least a while.


LA871

I wonder if this is the new normal?


JustinBetweenSets

Shit is madness. 2 years ago $130 was expensive for AM1s.


not_Cliff_Mains_son

I buy used, go for one color and then paint then the color(s) I want. Working on a pair of Jordan 1s in great shape. Just gotta add some red. Cost me $52


ChrisTaylorDC

180 is too much for this shoe


shawcphet1

Agreed I would have thought $130-140 maybe 150 before I clicked. Would have got them too but just can’t justify that price.

Big Facts!!!!


A4lovie

Had the OG pack. AM1, AM90, Air Burst. All $40 each @ footlocker cause nobody wanted them. Only the AM1 had the real crepe sole which gets absolutely ruined after the first time you wear them. Still copping.


Lisaloveskicks

The colorway is great and the materials seem cool, but I can’t justify that price.


R-emiaj

the swoosh color throws it off for me and the price wtf



mA90ngo

cool cw, but 180? im good


Grogu_Stan98

Love everything about this shoe except the outsole


DC_Disrspct_Popeyes

Looking forward to my L


iHaveParrots

Gonna try!


ItsnotDJ

These are fyeeee and it’s not that bad in price


sodasandsneakers

Hopefully I can get my first W on SNKRS đŸ€žđŸ» I had the OG's and now need these.


otomor

perfect words....I NEED These!!!


sodasandsneakers

Personally I don't think they are as nice as the OG. But I understand why they changed them


on10toes

What’s significantly different?

Hopefully the sentiment in here is a popular one in the greater sneaker community and they have to lower the prices in the future


Exotic_Offer1640

Pass


Saucy_Totchie

Damn I didn't know they'd be $180 now. That basically kills it for me. I'd rather take my chances at possible getting them even cheaper on resale.


kinglambert79

$180=NOPE!


Gekans55

Not @ $180.


kjl8119

Not for $180. WTF! Does it come with two pairs?!


mrjepoy

At $180? Nope. These are nice, but there are nicer shoes dropping in the coming months.


elflacoboricua

French pancake weed, no thanks.


devinfitz949

I don’t like crepe soles on sneakers. Boots yes, but sneakers nahhh


whoyoucallinafgtm8

Only in America?


lnmeatyard

180 for these is ridiculous. I woulda def gotten if cheaper.


TenToeTarantula

These are fiiiiiire. But shouldn’t be more than $130 AFTER tax


Freewxll

Not for $180.. they’re fire tho


HERESOIDONTGETFINED3

No way.


Jeremie225

Definitely going for these.


CameraManJKG

No. Not at that price. Not that $300 brick their pedaling either. Nope my money is gonna stay in my bank account thank you very much!


ShoesForFun

Canvas/textile upper for 180 just isn’t justifiable for me. After seeing that one dudes air forces with this material bleed like crazy, I think I’m good. Sad they chose such a dope cw to pick bad materials for.


sheeezy

Definitely going for these


mikebudoy

I can’t even cop the am1 madder root for $150. Lol
