There is a rumor the Back to the Future shoes will drop for one day only, tomorrow. They will be insane if they do, rumor is they will only be available on the Nike app. Talking big bucks here gentlemen if the rumors are substantiated.

Quote:When at the beginning of the year Nike announced that it was working on a self-lacing version of the Back To The Future Air Mag sneakers, movie buffs were overjoyed with excitement and anticipation.

When no release date was set, many people were led to speculate that Nike would release the shoes to coincide with the actual day Marty and Doc arrived in 2015.

Now the day has come, and to mark ‘Back to the Future Day’ Nike sent out this cryptic tweet that has reignited speculation that the self-lacing sneaker will be released in honour of the occasion.

Given the fact that an unworn pair of the original back to the Future Air Mags released in 2011 are around $7-8k, a pair of the self-lacing edition could cost anywhere between a first born child, a combination of an arm and or leg or your soul. However they are self lacing… -

Depends on the edition. Thee were some very valuable collaborations with companies like Supreme, and also with some rare colorways especially in the low top version. You'll need to research the type of shoe you have to know if you'll turn in a crazy profit, but yes SB dunks can be worth selling. These two links may help you determine if you have any coveted releases:

Yeah this is really a good shoe that you could try to resell. Big hype & there's practically no risk and the returns will be huge. I'm buying a pair for sure when they come out tomorrow, no doubt about it.

Did the shoes release? From what I read on the internet it seems like it didn't.

No.

Tinker Hatfield sent Michael J Fox the first pair. He also sent him a personal letter stating they will be releasing via auction in 2016 with proceeds being donated to the Michael J Fox Foundation.

Here is a link to a home video of him trying them on for the first time: http://www.sportingnews.com/sport-news/4...eld-letter

Got myself a pair of the Yeezy Boost 750 Grey/Gum edition that dropped today. Easy money: $350 on adidas website, $2K resell value. Delivered on tuesday, probably sold on wednesday.

This shit can't get any easier boys!

The next adidas yeezy release is probably the Yeezy Boost 350 Beluga version.

Keep your eyes open guys.

Ovo, do you use a particular bot or simply just fast internet/ luck?

I used to be fairly into the shoe game but never did tons of buying and selling. I worked at a shoe store back in University and would buy at a discount and resell for higher later (lol).

Have you had much luck doing this hustle since posting a year ago? I've noticed less hype around most jordan products seeing as the quality has gone down and they seem to be pumping them out more often now. My guess would be a $50-75 markup at best on 80% or more of releases.

Any Yeezy release is probably a safe bet if you're going for the resale approach if I had to guess.

I just use fast internet and pre-filled out adress details. For this release I have bought a adidas t-shirt a few days before the release with my creditcard. This attached the creditcard to my adidas account which enables 1 click checkout (saves time.) I even did this order on my phone and misclicked a few times as well so I could have been even faster.

An no, shoe reselling is alive and well my friend. You just need to know which shoes get enough hype to get a good resell value. If you're just going to buy every jordan release then you will be losing money.

Yeezy is always a safe bet. 350's can be sold for 1.5k, 750s for 2K if not $2.5k.

OVO what's a good Instagram handle to follow to see what's the next big sneaker to come out? When do the next Yeezys or hyped shoe come out?

Yea, it was made in China using glue, polyester and rubber. Anyone paying this much is an imbecile.

Is it something to do with hip hop culture? Prove to everyone you're not poor by pissing your money up the wall on nonsense.

ovo, are you based in the us?

I get new yeezy boost 350 for 500€ (in Austria) but on eBay (us) they sell for 1500$ plus. Are there different versions out there or is the difference caused by taxes?

Damn.. Yeezy boost 350 retails for $200 in the us. 750s for $350. I think it might have to do with taxes and difference in currency rates. Aren't more things in Austria more expensive?

Weird though as Adidas should retail them just for the normal euro price... Did you get them at the Adidas site?
