@Matt I found that the Tom Sachs weren’t super comfortable out of the box but they either broke in or I got used to them, and I find myself wearing them a few times a week now. I’m a sucker for yellow sneakers. The brown pair that just released is nice too.

[Matt]

That’s good intel, thank you.

[october rust]

@Matt and I’m sure you already knew this, but just in case! They’re women’s sized. I almost accidentally ended up with a pair way too small.

[Matt]

I am aware. I take an extra minute to make sure on each site I look at.

[jerkules]

Love the GPS I’d get those if I had to choose one. The new brown colour also looks nice, but I prefer the yellow.

[october rust]

Broke out the brown pair today. They remind me of a chocolate bar, but also remind me of a better time in the early 00’s when Nike was making a ton of brown suede skate shoes.

[Matt]

Very cool. I saw that the next run will be these…

[Matt]

At this point the real obstacle for me is that the lowest price I can find for the yellow in a men’s 10.5 is $255 plus tax and shipping. Until it comes down I’m out. The above color isn’t bad but yellow is my preference. Of course I could get the yellow Lowcates and the next run of Tom Sachs…

Yeah… there it is.

@Matt just now seeing this discussion. I’ve been signing up for the Sachs releases for a good while it seems. Never have lucked out and the aftermarket prices have scared me away too. For what it’s worth, I prefer the Sachs yellow to the Lowcates. Both are cool though and the Lowcates might give you more utility

[Matt]

I think I’m going to try for the next round of GPS. We’ll see…

If I can find me a decent deal for the Lowcates I may bite. I really like ACGs.

[Bigdog]

@Matt im blaming you for this rabbit hole. Brown Tom Sacs on the way

[Matt]

I’m in there too now @Bigdog

Just ordered these from GOAT…

And I’ve got my eyes on these…

[SKT]

@Bigdog i like those and I agree that blaming @Matt is really the only way to do this thing

[Matt]

Fair enough.

Newer to the forum, but the more I look around, the more cool threads I find. Wore the Wotherspoons the other day, still one of my favorites.

[Matt]

Love those.

[Matt]

So my solution to the problem of those two pairs of Air Max 90s was to get the other pair in the Air Max 97 but the same colorway. Problem solved.

[Matt]

@mumonkey72 you inspired me. I hadn’t even looked at the 97 until I saw the Wotherspoons. Didn’t realize those are a hybrid with a 97 top and 90 sole. Very expensive in the second hand market. Looking for a used pair.

[mumonkey72]

@Matt yeah I've seen the prices on these skyrocketed. Luckily I was friendly with Sean Wotherspoon when these came out and he slid me a pair. Basically used to live in his old store in Richmond, Va back in the day. As much as I love these I don't think I could ever spend over 1k on a pair!

[louisbosco]

the prices for those 1/97 wotherspoons are holding well given that they're about 5 years now..
