I copped these flyknits new for $150 on Nike.com a couple months ago. Now they retail for $230 on ebay. Do you think these shoes will become rare over time and I save them, or should I just wear them daily?

>> No.7727127

why did you cop?

if you like them wear em

if you don't just sell them

geez...

I copped them to wear them but if they have increasing value I might save them.

>> No.7727155

Just wear em.

I bought my white ones for around $200. The price just goes up on ebay when Nike runs out of stock, but otherwise they won't become that rare.

They're not going to be Yeezys or some shit.

what type of fucking dinkus are you.

you should be ashamed of yourself faggot.

you obviously know nothing about shoes and should be murdered.

1. a shoe cannot retail on an aftermarket website. a shoe is only retail if it's at a retail store.

2. they're flyknits, not yeezy's. the value will go down if you don't sell them around now. besides, flyknits have potential for very dope outfits so you'd be a fucking idiot selling them.

or maybe you'd just like to spend all of your money on shitty docs.

the most expensive black ones i saw sold were 300$

im thinking about selling mine too, i dont really wear them and i could just buy other runners for 100$ or something

but will they be worth more in a few years? they are not being restocked anymore so the rarity will only go up, will the hype die down though? it didnt on the yeezys and plenty of other models of nikes

Wow Op how new are you to the shoe game. This always happens when stock on popular Nike shoes run out then some fags sell them on ebay for a higher price. See the shortage of roshes last year. Once Nike restocks then the value will drop as usual. Are they rare? Lmao! Idiot

ignore this silly fruitbowl, anon. trunks obviously has no fucking clue about design and thinks yeezy's are terrible because too many black people wear them and he's a dirty racist.

in terms of colorway, i personally prefer the black flyknits better than the white pair, but it's really up to you. those 2 are the best in my opinion. now if you're willing to dish out the 2 grand for the yeezy's, go ahead and buy the solar red/black colorway.

the shape of the shoe is so good though, the black colorway doesn't show all of the details like the platinum one and that's great because of how nice the silhouette is, along with that glow in the dark sole that even glows in the day.

trainers in general sorta suck theyre heavy uncomfortable and ugly shaped

i'm talking about the yeezy's.
the trainers are better than the racers though, the racers have that elongated look to them and i'm not really a huge fan of that. idk if you're wearing them sockless but trainers are very comfortable to me with socks on.

>> No.7727449

>>7727426
oh lol

ik what you mean by the elongated shape but they work really well in tech outfits

racers are comfy sockless or with socks, tbh i dont remember the last time ive worn my trainers in a fit since ive got my racers, the trainers still look dope, they actually look better in casual fits imo but i still just like the racers way more

It's simply because there's currently a short supply.

Look at something like the Qasas, they were rare as fuck and resold to high prices. But that's cause like the Flyknit lunar 1s they were the first batch.

It's a simple matter of supply and demand, when the second batch of lunar come out the first ones won't be that expensive at all except maybe the black ones since they for some odd reason were really sought after.

I bought my blue ones at sale for fucking 70 dollars... actually i might see how much I can resale them for.

lmao this thread is full of idiots

they will not increase in value, at least not enough to warrant selling them and never wearing them (because if they arent deadstock rn, you arent going to be getting shit for them.)

honestly you arent going to be making money off sneakers or shoes unless you are buying really limited or exclusive drops that are in high demand (most recent ones i was thinking of copping being the Extra Butter Asics set limited restock) or the rare colorway or model that blows up, like the original Digi Floral Janoskis.

just buy a bunch of Jordans and sell them to plbs at yoir local sneaker festival (ie: Kansas City's "SneakFest")
