    I almost pulled the trigger on the Lillard shoes this AM. I'd probably never wear though, well, on occasion but I already have red shoes. #blood

    They have them in all black! According to the sneakercrush junkie I waited in line with who claimed to have already pre-ordered them.

    Que story: arrived an hour early at 6PM, line wrapped around the block. It moved so slow and wasn't until 8PM somebody finally came out a said, "if you just want autograph's there's another line." Yea that would have been nice to know, but lucky for me I even got in. Came out at 8:30 to irate crowd learning they wouldn't let anybody else in, people (and families) saying they drove x number of miles and waited x number of hours in the cold for nothing. A pissing match issued to the point of a staff member cussing at people who were being turned back. #Respect, Not.

    Ya, those small boutique shops love the pub, but they aren't used to handling those types of situations. I've been in that shop a couple times. They have some cool stuff. Those type of public appearances are better if they are held at big places like the adidas campus.

    Nah, I'd get them in red for sure if I did kop them. Kind of regret it now, oh well. They sold out on adidas.com already, but I was able to put in my basket since I saw the tweet announcing them within 2 min.

    I'm just really not a sneaker head anymore, most of them just stay in storage. Then the glue on them (esp nikes) starts getting fucked and they fall apart)
