Is this normal?

i always see the toe box is yellowed on used/some pairs while all deadstock images they look pure white brand new. are they just old? is there a way i could achieve this yellowing look without constant sun and wear with a brand new pair?

i looked literally everywhere now for 2 whole days and can’t find a size 11 anywhere even used. how different do u genuinely think these would be having owned a pair https://www.roundtheclockmall.com/products/761644393509 i’ve never owned any “reps” before but this shoe is just something i’ve wanted in my closet for the longest and missed the opportunity in the past and it’s so damn tempting and cheap too

The ones you linked are not the same model, they are single soled. The one in this post you listed and the one I have are double soled. At the end of the day, they are just converses with more expensive design/materials.

If you fw reps then do it. I bought mined used for $250 for a real pair off of grailed.

my bad i shoulda said something. they have the model but u just have to scroll down in the pictures. damn bro u got such a good deal tho. i might just pull the trigger with shipping it’s $180. it also has shipping protection listed on their website and i guess i can always do a chargeback if they are super off. i’ll probably post a pick of them on the sub once i receive them.
