Slp faded black (L) & Carbon (R)

Thanks for the comparison. I've been contemplating SLP's as an alternative but don't like zipper fly's. I also prefer the fit knee down on the carbons going by your fit.

So what'd you sell them for?
Less then that. lol.

I told you all when I made the post some people won't like the price but some will be okay with it. I did not buy them for resale I bought them to wear and will try and grab another pair of Mr. P. BTW if anybody has a size 10 or 10.5 in sail ill give you a pretty penny for them. Less popular sizes sold on ebay for $500-650 I'm willing to work in that area.

I would personally rather get the wolf grey Jordan 1 suede over paying any type of resell price for th vandels.

If I'm putting 500-650 on shoes I'd rather buy some slp joints on sale

Just received in the vandals in sail. I gotta give it to JE for bringing back a vintage silhouette with premium materials. Laces are a bit long for my liking but overall a beautiful sneaker.

It's all subjective. I would rather have common projects than slp. Although slp shoes on sale are like $200-300 only. I wouldn't mind dropping that much on the vandals because they're limited and something I like from JE.

^Perforated achilles are always on sale. I bought a pair for $156 new off gilt or something I think a year back they're ugly imo.

Not seeking approval here @Einstein. Perforated Achilles are my go to. I've been wearing my all white perfs for 3-4 years now. As well as my black perfs. They crease far less than the regulars. And I find the inside to be softer/more comfortable. But like I said, I would rather add a couple pairs of shoes I'd been eyeing to my rotation than to spend 500+ on Nike vandals that retailed at $150. But that's me

Damn. @srizvi722 I thought you came onto this thread to only seek out my approval. Jokes aside that's why I put imo. Thank god I think yeezy's are trash because people get miserable when they don't get something they want; especially on the internet.
