Game Royals look a little...cheap. Not at all a fan of the Blue Moons either.

Is the blue moon similar in color to a baby blue or darker like a royal blue?

it won't be royal blue like on fragments for sure. Wondering how the real color will look like. These what we can found now are only photoshops.

game royals would've been great if they had a white tongue

what's the official name? I've seen Phantom and Ghost. I guess I missed the first drop. Definitely want to grab a pair on a restock.

Need those Acronym Vapormax...John Mayer advert is too good.

Got a pair of Jordan Tinker Hatfield. Not sure if I was able to acquire the royal blue 1s. Seriously I don’t understand why Nike had 2 Jordan releases same time same day.

 

[trig]

failed on both and plan on going to march for our lives instead of lining up for fcfs releases.

so Blue Moons will be a lot uglier than expected

Took a series of Ls this morning, and I'm not even angry. Anyone manage to grab the Nike Vapormax X Acronyms? If so, and you want to part with a men's 8.5, please let me know.

That sucks. I’m guessing they didn’t want to take away from the fragments.

An unadulterated review of my latest experience with StockX, which I hope will help others:

Up until March 20th, 2018, I had sold 2 sneakers on StockX and everything went well. After my 3rd sale, my transaction fee would lower from 9.5% to 9%. I sold my 3rd pair of sneakers on March 20th and then my 4th pair on March 21st. The 4th sale, and any sale thereafter, is supposed to be charged the 9% transaction fee, but that was not the case. I shipped both sneakers on March 22nd, using the UPS labels provided by StockX. Thankfully, I received a receipt when dropping off the packages at the UPS store.

I reached out to StockX to ask why my 4th sale had been charged 9.5%, as opposed to 9%, and was told it was because the sneakers had yet to arrive. Tracking showed the sneakers had arrived in Detroit, MI, early Saturday morning, but wouldn't arrive at StockX's headquarters until Monday, March 26th. Cool, they'll make the price adjustment, I thought to myself, especially since it's only a few dollars we're talking about. So I then sold another pair of sneakers on Friday, March 23rd. The sale was yet again charged a 9.5% transaction fee. I decided to respond to StockX's email, asking if they would make the adjustment once they received the 3 sneakers I had recently sold. "Thank you for following up, unfortunately [we] will not. We are looking into fixing this asap," was their response, which does nothing to address the issue.

Hopeful the sneakers had arrived at StockX, I checked the tracking information last night on the 2 sneakers en route. Much to my surprise, the tracking information previously there was no longer available. It simply said: "A UPS shipping label has been created. Once the shipment arrives at our facility, the tracking status--including the scheduled delivery date--will be updated." The sneakers effectively went from arriving in Detroit to being untraceable. I sent StockX a follow up email, explaining what happened, and again expressing my disappointment with their unwillingness to fix the transaction fees, but have yet to hear back from them.

Thankfully, I have the receipt, which shows I entrusted both packages to UPS. Still, I worry that StockX, like other similarly-structured sites, will seek to absolve themselves of responsibility (on multiple fronts), and I will be left without my sneakers and money. At this point, I have no choice but to wait and see how they respond. But make no mistake: how they respond will determine whether I ship the sneakers I sold on Friday, March 23rd.

I really like the Romaleos 3's. They look sleek and functional. My head was swerving when noticing them on foot at the gym, trying to ID them. Would it look off if I rarely OLY lift? I may do it occasionally, more with kettlebells (squats, lunges).

Really like this women's colorway though

The alternative is the Metcons, digging this colorway. Metcons might be a better choice for me I think. How has everyone's experience been like?

Be careful, if the shoes sold and you don’t send them they will charge your paypal a fee, iirc it’s 15%
