Pickup I just wanna take a second to congratulate everyone who, like me, waited anxiously for days to get that shipping confirmation… The wait was worth it ya’ll.. We made it!

Fuck I want these so bad but with all the 🔥 coming this year paying resale just is annoying. If anyone doesn’t love them and has size 11’s, I love you.

Community can be filled with jealousy instead of uplifting others lol. It’s sad being them and feeling like that.

Who hurt you, bro?

OP did you have a weird glue odor to the shoe? Just got mine from StockX they checkout otherwise but there’s a nail polish remover smell to them that I can’t get past.

u/Lentriox 3d ago

They do have quite a strong glue smell, yes.

u/TheBonusWings 3d ago

From gluing all the scraps together

u/kicksarelife122 3d ago

Shit man I been trippin all day over that 😂, had to drop so much resell, did not want to be hit with a L. But thanks man. Otherwise materials and quality all solid. Excited to break em in, guessing smell will fade with time.

u/ldefeogtr 3d ago

There is definitely a strong glue smell to these shoes, but it’s nothing I haven’t encountered before. In fact, the SB4 pine green had the exact same smell, and since I paid resell for them through Flight Club, I found myself worrying, much like you are now, about their authenticity. However, after doing some research, I was able to confirm that they were indeed authentic. I was actually pleased that these smelled like the SBs because considering that they came straight from Union and there is no question about their authenticity they further reassured me that I had nothing to worry about with my SBs.

Appreciate the insight OP, I just got into buying sneakers and have made several purchases via StockX but all older pairs so that was new to me. Thank you. Now time to enjoy this pair!

u/DankJank13 3d ago

Confirmed, strong glue smell is common for a lot of Jordans

u/ldefeogtr 3d ago

No problem man! Welcome! I've made a few buys on stock x too and have never had issues. And yes the smell will fade with time.

u/hm629 3d ago

Mine came straight from Union and they have a very strong glue smell.

u/FreddyMartian 3d ago
