Buy, Pass, Wait: Air Jordan 1 Reverse Shattered Backboard, How Much Would We Pay For The Nike Mag

So how much would you actually pay for the future?

Turning the (kinda) auto-lacing Nike Mag into a drawing was the best possible solution for Nike and the Michael J. Fox and his foundation for Parkinson’s research. By limiting them to 89 pairs, it drives people to buy as many $10 raffle tickets as possible who otherwise wouldn’t be able to afford the thousands of dollars it would have cost to cop them in an auction. It also maintains the mystique of the Mag so that when the day eventually does come and Nike creates a general release for them (I doubt it’ll be anytime soon), it will create another headline-driving story that will get people to buy them in droves and once again promote Fox’s foundation. But for now, assume that there will only ever be 89 Mags with the same tech that will be found on upcoming Nike HyperAdapt. In this week’s edition of Buy, Pass, Wait, we ask our KoF team how much are you paying for Mags?

Nike

Juan Martinez, Editor-In-Chief: I love the Nike Mag, but I love the Mattel Hoverboard even more…

There’s no limit to the money (you know, besides the actual amount of money in my bank account) I would pay to own a Mag/Hoverboard combo right now. Not the toy prop you can buy right now; I want the real deal that floats and can kind of survive water until Biff comes at you with a bat. But if we’re talking about just the Mag? Maybe $500, but that’s only because I’m sure Nike will turn the Mag into a GR someday once the technology is even better than what it is now.

Renz Ofiaza, News: Since there’s only 1,599 pairs or 1,600 worldwide (with one belonging to Michael J. Fox) — 1,510 from 2011 without the auto-lacing feature and 89 pairs this year with the adaptive fit tech — I think the most I would pay for the auto lacing version is $1k, just because the proceeds would go to a better cause. In time, the sneaker’s power lacing will get more refined, and hopefully just like it was showcased in the movie. By then, I would consider purchasing it a higher price if it retains its extreme limited availability.

Juan Carrillo, News: I have a confession to make: I don’t think I’ve ever seen the Back To The Future movie in its entirety. I know, don’t judge me. For that reason alone, I don’t have the same nostalgia as others do when it comes to this shoe. Don’t get it twisted, the shoe is pretty dope but I don’t see myself paying a lot for it since I have no type of connection with it. So how much would I pay for it to have it in my collection and not resell it? Probably no more than $1,000. Wishful thinking, right?

Andres Carrillo, News: It’s hard to say. It all depends on how much I’d be able to resell it for and how much people would be willing to pay. The truth is that I’ve never seen Back To The Future Part 2 and I couldn’t care less for the Nike Mags. I have a feeling that if these weren’t so limited many people wouldn’t even look at them twice. I mean it looks like you’re literally wearing a movie prop on your feet. The most I would pay would probably be somewhere between $200-$300.

EIC Juan: (PASS) I’m waiting for the next thing (hmmmm….)

Renz: (BUY) I like how the color coordination is similar to the Chicago theme. It’s a nice pickup for Halloween.

News Juan: (BUY) I’ve been going back and forth with this release. I want it so I can complete my Shattered Backboard set, but at the same time I don’t want it because I already have the first version, which I think looks a little better. See my dilemma? If I can get it at retail, I’d love to get a pair. If not, it’s okay, I guess.

Andres: (BUY) Im hoping I get lucky through the SNKRS app and I grab a pair. I missed out on the original Shattered Backboards last year and this would sort of heal the wound that is still open to this day. The materials on this pair look really nice too.

EIC Juan: (PASS) Let’s get rid of that Jumpman and it’s a thousand times better.

Renz: (WAIT) So far, the colorways on this sneaker have been solid. There hasn’t been one that I really disliked. This pair is another appealing option and probably one of the best colorways so far.

News Juan: (WAIT) I love this colorway of the Jordan 31, but if the Banned 31s are already on sale for $30-$40 under retail, I’m assuming these will be suffering the same fate. I’m crossing my fingers and hope these drop in price within a month or two. Would be nice to have the entire Shattered Backboard collection sometime in the near future.

Andres: (WAIT) Another colorway of the Air Jordan 31 that I like. However, I think if i wait I can get them for below retail. So far I really like what we’ve seen from the Air Jordan 31. I’ve seen way too many people hate on this shoe.


Teyana Taylor x Reebok Question Mid

EIC Juan: (PASS) The all-red thing is still a “thing”, I guess. I like the look and the execution, but I feel I would like it more if wasn’t red and maybe a color we haven’t done to death. How about an all-orange?

Renz: (PASS) The construction looks pretty solid and I’m biased towards the shade. Although, I’m not really inclined on this pair. The outsole should’ve been clear translucent instead.

News Juan: (PASS) Love the tonal/bold look of the shoe, but to keep it real, I don’t see myself wearing it too much. Big ups to Reebok and Teyana though, it looks like they’ve got a winner on their hands.

Andres: (PASS) It’s cool to see a woman design her own colorway of the Reebok Question Mid, but nothing about this shoe impresses me. It just looks like an all-red Question, and I think the all-red sneaker craze has been slowly dying for quite some time now.

The Nike ACG Lupinek Flyknit Triple Black Drops Next Month

Nike ACG Lunipek Flyknit 1 Nike ACG Lunipek Flyknit 2 Nike ACG Lunipek Flyknit 3 Nike ACG Lunipek Flyknit 4 Nike ACG Lunipek Flyknit 5 Nike ACG Lunipek Flyknit 6

Have y’all seen the upcoming Nike ACG Lupinek Flyknit Triple Black? Set to release at the beginning of next month, let’s take a closer look at this upcoming Nike ACG drop.

Looking to give the Nike ACG Lupinek a modern look and feel for the Fall season, Nike decided to give it a Black Flyknit upper that completely changes the aesthetics of the shoe. The ACG model comes in an all-Black upper done in Flyknit fashion. Although it is considered a Flyknit model, the shoe still has hits of leather in areas such as the toe, mudguard, tongue and lining and heel, which is a good idea since it is an ACG model and you do need that extra protection and durability. Below you will find a natural motion sole unit with added grip. 3M hits on the heel round out that main features on the shoe. Dropping on November 3rd, let us know if you like what you see.

Author’s Take

Not too familiar with the model, but looking at it in this fashion definitely makes me a fan of it. Definitely looks tough, especially in the all-Black colorway.

We just went over a Black and White version of the Nike Air Trainer Max 91, less than 24 hours later we get our first look at yet another colorway, this time coming in Brown and Green. Opting to go with an earthy aesthetic, let’s get a closer look at this upcoming drop.

Appearing to be constructed out of mesh, neoprene and nubuck, the Nike Air Trainer Max 91 comes in a Brown and Green color blocking where Brown is noted on the toe and overlays, while Green can be seen on the remaining of the shoe. All the OG features on the shoe remain, including the branding on the panels and collar. Thoughts on this new colorway on the classic Bo Jackson sneaker? Let us know in the comments below.

The model is a classic, no doubt about that. But in my opinion, it doesn’t look too good in this colorway.

Ostrich Skin Returns To The Nike SB Stefan Janoski

The Ivory leather upper is accented with hazelnut suede detailing for a clean look and a fitting color palette for fall.

With the classic Sea Crystal Dunks returning, the latest iteration of the Nike SB Dunk Low is now available and dubbed, “Orange Box.”

Nike Air Foamposite One Royal 20th Anniversary (2017)

Release Date: January 2017
Price: ?

It’s hard to believe that the Nike Air Foamposite One released back in 1997. Next year will mark the 20th anniversary of the shoe, so you know very well that Nike is going to release special versions of the shoe to commemorate the 20 years. One way Nike looks to celebrate the models anniversary is by once again releasing the Nike Air Foamposite One Royal.

The Nike Air Foamposite One Royal is one of the OG colorways on the Penny model. It’s only right that Nike re-releases it to celebrate its 20th. A Royal posite upper is paired up with hits of Black placed on the eyestay, tongue, heel, lining and laces. Carbon fiber fiber and a translucent motif is placed on the sole region. The shoe is said to be dropping January of 2017.

The next rendition of the Nike LeBron Zoom Soldier 10 is set to drop soon, as this particular finish pays homage to one of the top NYC basketball schools ? Christ the King high school.

Simply colored in the school?s signature palette, the colorway also coordinates with the Cleveland Cavaliers respectively. Team Red essentially covers the upper, distinctive straps and midsole unit, while subtle pops of metallic gold adorn the heel via Swooshes for a complementing contrast. Finally, a crisp white rubber sole unit finishes off the profile.

Priced at $130, you can buy this standout pair at select Nike retailers starting Saturday, October 15th.

Author’s Take

The colorway is appealing in general. Although I don?t like the silhouette aesthetically, this should still garner some attention, especially for those who attend the NYC high school too.
