Hi guys! I'm a newbie here and slowly but surely, i'm starting my collection
soon. Anyone of you can hook me up on a AVE/DILL Cheetah Old Skool?
I'm lookin at a US sz 11. Appreciate it very much if you guys have any links.

Thanks in advance!

I find it funny how AVE gets no credit on this release. Just a bunch of resellers misrepresenting their product. Especially pathetic when it's labeled right on the box. SMH :roll:
BTW, welcome to site!

By far, i think this is one of the best releases from Syndicate! And i can't believed
i missed them! :o Thanks for the heads-up akamedaniel! Anyways, i have not done
a price check on the Ave/Dill Old Skool. What do you think? Anyone
willing to give their 2 cents worth?

If anybody's willing to trade a size 9.5 AVE Old Skool for my DS size 10 AVE Old Skool, let me know! Darn shoes fit way larger than expected (even though I should've known better based on plenty of other syndicate Old Skool releases...). haha

Who knows what these are going should go for. THe pricing is all over the place and they don't seem to sell at the high end. Too bad you're not an 8.5. I would sell you mine.

I would say don't go above $200 on them. $180 is around a stable reselling price I've seen. Maybe less if someone is eager to sell. If they're trying to get top dollar, then if it's a sz12 or 11.5 or 13, then perhaps it will fetch slightly above $200. People tend to pay more for those sizes...like myself!

and me ;)
Sadly I had to pay $200 for my pair, since there was no chance of me finding my 11.5 after resellers got first pick. But I have no regrets.

I wear a normal US 11 in my usual Old Skools, so if that's the case, should i go a half size down
in a Syndicate?

Thanks for the info bro! At least i can have an idea how much is the reselling
price of the Old Skool. I'm itching to pull the trigger, but i'm going to pay
a hefty price plus the shipping charges as well. And that really sucks. :(

8.5? Aww..dang. We could have made business by then. :D
I can't keep my mind away from the Old Skools.
Doesn't help either that owners keep posting photos of them
on instagram!!

Hey guys, i'm just curious, is it true as what i've read online about
the Syndicate AVE/Dill pack? Are all materials made for all the shoes
consists of pigskin linings? It's kinda of a concern for me. :(
Care to chime in guys? Thanks a lot!

Yeah, I feel like you could easily go down to a 10.5. If you don't mind 'em fitting a little big, an 11 would probably also be fine. For me, I haven't worn mine yet because I can't decide if I should just rock them or wait til I find a 9.5 and sell these. Maybe a few other people can offer input on the sizing, but I think it's a pair that going down a half size is helpful.

Oh yeah, not sure if that's pigskin or not, either. I looked over my pair and there is a bit of some sort of leather inside, but I don't know what type.

Thanks for the info bro. Yup, i read the descriptions about the materials on some on a few websites.
And i did a quick email to Vans just to confirm about the matter on the pigskin
linings. Just waiting for them to revert. :D
