Yeah, the colors on those syndicates are super nice! I like that it's more vivid than the traditional GR colorway. I've been wearing my pair a lot more than I expected.

(and Brant, perhaps you can shed some light about the Nike "action sports" boxes. Are they transitioning the signature models to the sporting goods/Zumiez/PacSun line of Nike shoes like I've heard before? Just been noticing that the Kostons and P-Rods have been coming in those boxes now).

So, let me see if i can spit this out quickly and efficiently....in a pyramid fashion, and not contradict myself etc:

SB QUICKSTRIKE
SB IN STORE ONLY (ISO)
SB REGULAR RELEASE (DUNK, TEAM, BLAZER, ETC)
SIGNATURE ISO COLORWAY (NOT SB, BUT SOLD THROUGH SB CHANNELS)
SIGNATURE (THIS IS NOW JANOSKI, KOSTON, PROD, OMAR--ALL in nike stores, ZUMIEZ etc. Considered ACTION SPORTS)
AND THEN ACTION SPORTS ( BRAATA, ALL THAT JUNK THAT USED TO BE 6.0, OPEN TO ALL CHANNELS - PAC SUN, ANY ALT SPORTS

does that help? then all the stuff like koston heritage, challenge court, they put that pretty much wherever they please based on where they think it will sell.

so your lunar rods, as limited and exclusive, and awesome btw, as they are--- from what I know are simply a custom 'signature' release, aka action sports. (is that the box they came in?)
nike changes the terms all the time, and I think it is to be purposefully confusing. in store was called elevated for a while, etc etc. There may even be
some weird one off levels in addition to what I just put, or exceptions to the rules, etc. I think it is no mistake that it is a headache.

Haha, great explanation...and yeah these Lunar Rods came in an Action Sports box, with no SB labeling at all, BUT on the heel of the shoe, it's embroidered with the NikeSB logo! This sorta' stuff isn't new to SB either. Pre-pink box stuff didn't even have SB on the tongues.

^^^ definitely trying to reinforce the limited-ness of it by upgrading it / using the SB detailing then... since the standard LUNAR ROD is signature edition / action sports, despite what anyone lists it as, from my limited knowledge. Primitive knocked that one out of the park for sure though....amazing shoe.

Just a quick question anyone from Honolulu and would do a pick up for me??

No longer a stranger.

I'm sorry but if shaz did this I would have to get all my money at once or fuck him up. However much money he stole becomes 2x in medical bills. An eye for an eye. I'm pretty damn sure ALL of us here have noticed how easy it is to steal a lot of moneyin this hobby.. However we're not slimey like that, and we all stand by our word. Guam, I know he's your friend but he's voided now. It's like loving someone and finding out that they rape people, yet you're okay with it.

I just can't see it, and I don't know why all you guys who know where he lives aren't busting him up. All of you guys should meet up and make him give you either money or things of equal value. You're all giving him slack that he DOESN'T come close to deserving.

this SHAZ situation is just dirty., something like this happened to me, but i took care of it thru paypal. It took awhile to get my money back. Hopefully everyone get theres as well. damn thats just shady.

The 'Aged Leather' series is one of the best GR series I've seen in a while.
