I'm in, haha, I've been waiting since 89! I almost got them the last time they dropped, but my wife would have killed me!

There was a charity auction that was held in 2011 at the Montalban Theater in Hollywood. I don't know if any of you guys watched the 10 days eBay auction they have set up, but you'd be surprised how much the shoes sold garnered at the end of the auction, made that DRAKE OVO x NIKE AJ 12 and 10 auction joke... Pun intended.

Here is a limited give-away-box to those who attended.

And since Back to the Future II was the most commercialized movie at that time, these also came with it.

In the meantime, I think it's better to start the collection with this? Work your way from head-to-toe

I was watching some of them, the price varied quite a bit, near the middle, the cheapese ones were going for less than $4K. But sometimes they would go up to $6-7k! Probably just depended on which celeb was trying to get them on that day.

The first auction, if I remember right, Tiny Tempa got them for $30K?! Crazy.

Yep, $37,500. It's on the second YouTube link. Funny, this surfaced in YouTube today. And for anyone who push-wood, you would know that it's fake.

yeah, I wanted to get in on that, but $7k-$15 wasn't in the budget.

New re-released Mags are supposedly to get the auto laces so prepare to pay up for them.

I wish they stop teasing me. I want a hover board soooooo bad!

No luck with RSVP for Niketown LA.

I don't think you'll have a problem getting those 3s if you really want them. Seems like a very general release.

QuikSilveRX-8 · 03-09-2014, 12:57 PM

I ended up getting a pair of the DUNK SB HIGH S.O.M.P. instead of the AJ 3 "Infrared 23", I have too many AJ 3s already. My brother woke up late and he was able to pick up a pair online through Foot Action.

NIKE DUNK SB HIGH S.O.M.P. and LOW TAKASHI II: Silver luster, suede, and safari print vs. laser print floral design comparison.

Carl Fredricksen · 03-10-2014, 09:31 PM

how do you like em? thought about getting a pair

QuikSilveRX-8 · 03-11-2014, 01:24 AM

It's was a generic shoe. A lot of NTers in their forum are all up on them, saying that they were a limited release, they even had a hard time getting a pair for themselves as if it were the DUNK HIGH SB Tiffany again; both online and in select their stores. But I got my 8 hours of sleep and went to my local skate shop once they opened and purchased one for myself; their shipment had a full size run from 8-13. Today, they have a size 13 left which I might get it if it's still there tomorrow and resell it online.

I like my TAKASHI IIs and I've worn it to death. I will do the same to these since the suede flexes the same as my TAKASHI. Smooth leather, feel is as soft, but one thing that caught my attention with these newer SBs is the rolled/layered leather stitching on the toe cap compares to the rest of the earlier DUNK SB(look closely at the pictured below on the left). Other than that, the 9.5 size on these DUNK HIGH SBs that came out since 'The Ugly Christmas Sweater' were pretty narrow and I half-sized up to a size 10 for these and the PREMIER "Petoskey" DUNK HIGH.

A bit bummed today, my Air Max 360(2006)'s air bubble popped when I took six fligts of stairs to work... Hssss 'ed once I got on the door. Eight years of use for work and haven't even ran on it.

The construction is pretty straight and simple, I might consider saving the uppers and do a lunar or a free hybrid.
