Fiiiire, great cops...

This reminds me I still got my Bo's from 00's but the laces were way too long (is that still an issue???)... Im gonna cop some shorter ones and release them, they too dope to leave on the shelf...

The Agassis have been on my cop list for ages too, looking at these has just made want them even more, Im gonna see if I can find some in the sales...
 
Im having a big clear out this weekend and giving my older nephew some sneakers that I no longer wear (younger nephew lucked out with small feet lol)...

Some of the soles on a couple look sketchy, some have yellowing but some are still fine or BNIB.. How many I part with will be tough though lol

Im tempted to put a couple of the almost or actual BNIB ones on Ebay but not sure I be assed with the hassle...

I desperately want/need these cases but was having trouble finding any that would fit size 13 at the time that didn't look cheap in quality. Was contemplating copping a couple of these off Wayfair and calling it a day.

...... and I almost copped those Bo's and Agassi's while out Christmas shopping, but I had to remember it wasn't about me...lol

They're still DS, i'll let you know when I wear them. Hopefully I won't have to swap laces.

The best cases that cover all sizes I've come across are "Sneaker Throne" but they want an arm, leg and rib for that shit. $150 for only 6.

The cases I got were $50 for 10, but they probably won't fit a size 13. I'm size 10 and it's already pretty snug.

Yeah that was basically the issue I was encountering. The ones I wanted were in that price range for several cases and that shit adds up fast when you start multiplying the base price to cover all the shoes…lol. 10 for the $50 wouldn’t be bad if I could find ones to fit my shoe size.
 
I couldnt bring myself to get rid of that many sneakers, though its a start...

Gave my nephew enough to turn my large Jordan box into a space for my cologne...

The 3's have the Jumpman logo, so 2011??? I prolly should had gave him the white and the black Cements with the Jumpman too as they will just rot away but its tough letting go...

I still got multiple back ups of the 3s with Nike logo as they my GOAT silhouette, so he will prolly get them next week, letting go is a process lol

Regarding sneaker storage, I did look into the sneaker boxes but like others have said they get expensive quick and take up alot of space...

One of my boys is a carpenter, so I got him to build me this kinda sneaker rack and sneaker island that covers most the walls and space in 'music and sneaker room'...

Hes the dude that made my huge CD rack too...

My replacement Jordan 3s arrived... Im going to keep this pair but tbh theyre not great either...

The midsoles still got paint issue and also look at the state of the gum soles... The 'gum' has smeared off the moulds or the press...

Im not being pedantic here am I??? Folks in here wouldnt be happy with this Q.C either right???

I'ma be honest with you brother

It's your money and you should get what you pay for

I think after 2 pair with similar QC issues, might just need to charge it to the game. It's just sneakers. You'll be giving these away to a nephew one day and it won't even matter.

Man I really love the colourway, Autumn vibes are my favourite combos but yeah think I just need to accept it... Clearly this release just has issues or End maybe got a bad batch...

The bottoms wouldn’t bother me, the midsoles would. Ultimately for me would come down to how much I like them and how much I paid for em. The better the sale price the better I am at overlooking quality issue 🤣.

Thats it the soles I can ignore but they just add to the fckry, the paint on the midsoles are a joke... The fact I 'only' paid £102 as opposed to £195 and I love colour combo the reason Im gonna keep them and have to put up with sh!t Q.C on this one...

Ive seen people complaining online about Nike's Q.C for yeeeears but up until now (from memory anyways) Ive never had a problem... Bad retros sure, like square toe boxes but thats just poor design rather than Q.C...
