Yo Luis...did you roll up on a skateboard to Supreme? 5150Marley, and I were both there, and got ours too. He wanted an 8.5, but had to settle for an 8 or 9, I think, cause they gave it to a japanese dude, who was one of their regulars probably. I got a 12, which I wanted the 11.5, but once again, they didn't make any. I was kinda disappointed that they just let everyone come in and crowd the place. We had to make sure we stood up front by the counter, to make sure to get ours, and the opening as a whole went as any Supreme release is expected. They didn't care. Probably wanted to make sure their peoples got theirs too. Can't be mad, though. That's every spot. One of the employees said they had like only 20-something pairs to sell, so I feel fortunate to have them. It's funny that you posted up a pic of the shoe, when the only distinction is the box label, and the inner stamp in gold, of the Supreme box logo, hehe. The navy color looks sooo freakin' close to the black, it will easily be mistaken. They should've went with a color that stands out more, like red, or light gray. Something that can't be mistaken for something else.

I passed on em Guam..... but it was nice meeting you.

I probably should have gotten an 8 or 9 but I was pissed and didn't want to give em my business.

Supreme handled it poorly.....IMO

I will just wait for the GR release of them.

[DJGuamstyles]

Yup it was not handled well, and it was my first Supreme release. Not sure how they do things normally, but I won't be attending that shit anymore, haha!

Yep. That was me. I had the wtaps mids on also. I had been in the area a little before 9. Just cruising around waiting for people to show up to see if a line was going to start. Usually a line forms on the opposite side of where we were and then the employees let in a few people in a time. At least that's how it's been for the releases I've gone for. Was expecting the same thing, but everyone just crowded. I jumped back in the line for some reason while I was inside. I don't know why, but still managed to get a pair. Two employees told me the same thing about the stock. I posted that info on Strictly Supreme and they think it's bull.

Did they sell out? As soon as I got my pair I was out!

[DJGuamstyles]

Same here. No reason to stay! I really thought Marley got a pair, too. Sucks man. He's die hard for his perfect size. Not me!

[crisone]

Damn, so no 8.5 at Supreme??? I guess my homie doesn't have a chance, aaallllll gooood.

Cris.

Doesn't hurt to check. You never know what to expect from Supreme.

[crisone]

^ Yeah, he's goin tomorrow anyways, so hopefully............

Its all good.... SUPREME lost me as a customer for life.

I will go with the Gr Zero Lo's when they come out....

9's for me work with some shoes but not these.... and I think 8's would have been to tight/small.

If I grabbed the 9's then Luis might not of gotten his pair.... and since he was in the back of the line I think I made the wise choice.

Was happy with my pick up until i noticed this on the right shoe. This isn't right is it? Looks like they printed a 9 on a smaller insole and stuck it in. It doesn't fill in the shoe.

I've had a few pairs of Vans from The Rack that were like that. These limited releases tend to have no quality control, and that sucks. I didn't even check mine, and they may be the same. I don't want to put my foot in there, and rub off the Supreme logo. They didn't even let that gold foil print cure, and these had a super strong glue smell too, like they were recently made.

Sounds like my Carhartts from Union.... I was getting high off the fumes when I opened the box.

I can't speak for a Supreme release, but on two occasions I've had insoles that were a half size too big. One was a pair of Wes Humpston Syndicate authentics and one on a pair of chukka lows and this was within the past three or so years. But, I understand what you're going through Luis, we pay a higher price for what we assume to be a quality product and we receive something that doesn't live up to the expectations. Don't worry, I know you have plenty of PU insoles from other Syndicates you have lying around.
