speaking of UBs... I tried on the Pure Boost 2.0s today... fantastic. Much nicer than the UBs in terms of comfort and more casual like!

Thanks for your reply. Tubular Dooms are sold out everywhere now ... had a chance to buy them from SJS but passed hoping for a discount later on. I was so so wrong. Compared to UB's, the Dooms are even harder to get.

Yup. The Pure Boosts are definitely more comfortable because it doesn't have the cage and heel reinforcements. Perfect for walking and casual activities. However, they're terrible if you want to run or do sports in them.

We have sole swappers here in Klang Valley too. Same thing; just need a donor shoe where the soles are removed from the new pair, then implanted on the "dead" pair. Considering Nike's path to re-releasing almost every pair available, doesn't make much sense. Except there seem to be queues to almost every sneaker drop these days, lol.

Of the ones I posted earlier, I may only consider the AJ3s... if I can find a cheap donor pair. Doesn't need to be new; midsole can always be painted. The 3M snakes, I have a spare pair... and probably no one can "re-glue" the 3M dust that has flaked off laugh.gif

Saw the news on the chukkas this morning. I can safely say that the risk of those selling out are next to nil.

Just sharing my observation on the Wood Wood UB on-line release on Saturday. They released at 6 a.m. Malaysia time so as I was up early (due to my baby), I figured what the hell ... just try to see if it is actually possible to try to get these on-line. I tried on Slam Jam and Hanon by the way.

To cut a long story short, I honestly don't think it is actually possible to get these on-line for us here. Their servers will crash and by the time it's back up, everything will be sold out.

This got me thinking, why bother releasing it on-line if you don't have the IT infrastructure to handle such a load? I believe users who are geographically closer to the respective sites servers (i.e. UK for Hanon and Italy for Slam Jam) are those who actually stand a chance. Might as well have an in-store release/on-line raffle or something like that to make sure everyone has a fair go at the sneakers.

As for us here, our best chance is a Sole What/Crossover x Adidas collab not too far in the future tongue.gif
