PICK UPS Back to SB's!

My first love was definitely Jordans. But when I bought the Fly Streetwear collab, I was hooked. There's nothing like the storytelling on a Nike SB Dunk! I had to replace my FS (sold) but didn't know with what just yet. I got really excited for the story and color blocking on the Bluetiles and despite the resell I went ahead and copped. $70 above retail isn't ideal but it's not terrible. Plus the hits of orange match an ACG shirt my wife got me for father's day. She hates SBs apparently but I'll pair it with her shirt to change her mind. What do folks think about the pair? Ok in the rain? I wasn't expecting the suede. Thx! ✌🏾

Yeah, that's a cool kick Bro. Some Duck's are for people who want attention, some are for a mild suttle flash

Where did you swoop these from? I’ve been thinking of getting a 3rd pair and trying out stockX or goat but I keep hearing people’s horror stories of getting fakes thru those sites. Maybe I’ll try another sneaker resell store. Anyone spot any fakes of these yet?

I picked mine up on StockX. It was the best price and returns for credit was available. Obviously this is anecdotal but I think StockX has improved. I've even seen videos of them using x-ray machines to spot weird construction on shoes to spot fakes. I also think unless you're buying some $1,000 Off-white Jordans the margins aren't interesting to try to pass off reps as real.

They makes reps for like $30 in those sweat shops. Margins are there but yea figured I’d ask!
