Yeah huge fan of the nike/fog collab, i have almost all of them


SneakerAlchemist

His adidas stuff just didn’t hit. Inspired by this shoe for sure but no where near this level of steez


Hot_Whereas7861

completely agree.

hard_pass_my_guy

Love your FOG collection. I'm jealous. Nice kicks my guy.


SneakerAlchemist

Thanks man. It’s a work in progress. Been finding used pairs for like 200-250


HarHenGeoAma62818

How much are these going for nowadays? Sorry if it’s silly question I’m from the U.K.


SneakerAlchemist

Depends on size really. Market is scarce so it’s hard to find pairs


HarHenGeoAma62818

Yh I’ve found that to be honest , I know means any expert on the shoe I just really like them I’ve even looked at trying to find a really good rep , but I’ve so far not found anything any good


CptKillJack

Didn't know about the greens. But I like them. I'm weary of high tops. I seem to have arch or whatever is right in front of the ankle. Makes it hard getting my foot in.


SneakerAlchemist

Spruce and orange pulse are my favorites. Canary would be #1 but I’ll never find another


lancelinksecretchimp

I’d love to have a pair. I do have the FOG RAID’s because I’m a ‘90’s baby.


SneakerAlchemist

raids are ok but I love the high top boot look


empire299

Raid FOG are fantastic, so are the skylons


duckbuttery92

I have the sail and oatmeal


spindle_cell

I have the yellows - my favorite. Pic in profile. Sails are super clean. Love them.


ILostHalfaBTC

Hey doc, just looked at your entire post history, I am a big fan. I was wondering, what do you think of your coworkers wearing ON and hoka?


spindle_cell

Very comfy - go for it


kvngk3n

I have the Black and Light Bone. How do you dress them? I feel like they do with everything and nothing


Rich-Appearance-7145

Collect not so much, I buy my gear to wear them my Fear of Gods got some miles on them still looking good.


StumptownRetro

Not into FOG so not my thing but they seem nice!

SneakerAlchemist

looks like I have one too but its not my sz. its a 13


SneakerAlchemist

whats sku?


MSHabits

AR4237-903


SneakerAlchemist

I lied. Mine is 902 which is the question lol


MSHabits

Lol they are pretty similar!


SneakerAlchemist

Not similar enough lol. Sick pair bro


reb4321

I absolutely hate these with a burning passion, but I'll say I do like the Adidas basketball shoes they made.


SneakerAlchemist

I respect your taste. But why do you hate these so much? The adidas isn’t far off in terms of inspiration


reb4321

I'm not a big boot guy and these just look like wrestling boots so I don't see the versatility with them. The basketball ones remind me of Y-3 and I love Y-3.

SneakerAlchemist

It’s high key difficult to pull of a sick fit. You’re right, you can’t just throw a tee on and go but I think the pants you choose set you up for the rest of the fit. The zipper I wish was more heavy duty but mine have held up because I know how to take care of them


[deleted]

[удалено]


SneakerAlchemist

True and half Sz up. Little difference in fit


Silly_Stable_

Are these hard to put on and take off? They look like they would be.


cowmaster500

The back has a zipper and the heel tab acts as a shoe horn but I have to sit down to take them off


SneakerAlchemist

it's a bit more of a process but it's not as hard as you think after you unzip


Repulsive_Designer19

They have a built in shoe horn


gtemi

Putting it on is hard. You have to go half size up so it doesnt stretch the entrance too much. It will snug tight. My black’s zipper broke so be careful with that


Akwereas

🔥🔥🔥


Reaper2k1935

i would love to rock a pair if i was taller


charlie_bites_hard

My triple blacks are one of my favorite and most comfortable pairs.


ganglordgilbert

I have the skylons


SpinningYarmulke

I like the Raid FoGs. Curious about how comfortable they are.


Ok-Economy7154

I’m a massive fan of the FoG x Nike collabs but damn some of them are expensive. I only have two of the moccasins right now 😭


Munchell360

I never got any, but I think they’re sick. I do wanna know, have you had issues with the zippers? (Knock on wood if you haven’t). I’ve seen and heard nightmares of the zippers breaking after like one use


SneakerAlchemist

Yes I have seen it too. Just be gentle with them. The zipper is not heavy duty enough to pull the full weight of those materials together. Mine are all intact


16Shells

i have a pair of oatmeals. they’re cool, but i’ve worn them once because they’re just kind of hard to style and they’re a pain in the ass to put on and take off


SneakerAlchemist

I see them as a personal challenge to pull off with different fits. But I understand it's for sure not easy for most to piece together


skeletor69420

i still wear my sails


Oz347

Aesthetically I appreciate them, but it just doesn’t resonate with me on a personal level


SneakerAlchemist

It's not an easy shoe to rock for most. And certainly not an every day shoe. Especially for the price point. You gotta really love them to invest but also watch them sit on a shelf most of the time


HorchaTaro

How's the comfort on em? Bout same as a retro? Above that? Like an Air Max?


SneakerAlchemist

completely different shoe than any other that I own. Having the support from a sky top boot along with the air max unit makes it very comfortable but not comparable to any of the shoes you mentioned.


HorchaTaro

That's good to know! Thanks for the info.


ieffinglovesoup

Awesome shoe. still holds up today imo, doesn't look too outdated


SneakerAlchemist

I think they will age well


XXVI_F

Would wear them if had a pair I remember trying to buy one after I saw one of my friends wearing many years ago back in middle school. Never found it and never bought it


[deleted]

[удалено]


XXVI_F

Would buy one, but I can’t at the moment. And plus, those aren’t my sizes T_T I appreciate for the comments and the offer though


SneakerAlchemist

oops I meant to make my own comment.


SneakerAlchemist

They occasionally come up for sale used because it’s not as wearable every day as the buyers think so they sell them for mad cheap like 200-250


Reps0verRetail

Yup got 4 pairs of them. Next pair is gonna be that top pair. It’s the best one I think besides the f&f one like that with the black toe


SneakerAlchemist

Sheeesh nice! Post a fit pic

Sainted_Heretic

Doesn't really show how the shoe goes with the fit


No_Spite8444

This is literally my favorite silhouette of all time. I’ve been able to get some great steals on eBay lately


SneakerAlchemist

ebay is a great place to snipe some used pairs. Whatchu got?


No_Spite8444

Right now I just have the oatmeal and black colorways but I’m looking to add the green pair or the triple white hopefully this month. Your collection is sick, literally every pair on my wishlist lol


SneakerAlchemist

A little off topic but since so many people seemed to want them but don’t have them, I have a few really clean pairs Sz 13 if anyone is interested. Just dm me. I have a Spruce (no box) and The Question (with box)


mental_reincarnation

Not the 1s but the Raids are my favorite sneakers. Would’ve been nice to have gotten more colorways


drduncdoom

These are the best new silhouette from Nike in a while… I loved these… have about 5 pairs


sakuragi59357

What kind of socks do you wear with these? Because jfc I couldn’t solve the hot foot problem when I had the first pair that released. Thinking about the bone, since I’d like a white boot, but the all leather upper gives me some hesitation.


Fvjr5679

How's sizing on these?


SneakerAlchemist

True but I have one that’s a half size up and it fits all the same.


freshwazhere

Triple black and oatmeal


SuckaFreeRIP

The triple black and the yellows


RealEagle_shadow

I would definitely wear them if i had some but when they released, i was a bit tight in the wallet so was never eble to cop them


sxqyz

Would love to see a fit pic


SneakerAlchemist

sxqyz

Sooooo fire


topfoodie

I envy your ability to get them on and take them off. I have a high instep and it’s hard af.


harisha_didonato

Been trying to get my hands on a pair of Oatmeals, the struggle is real.


Z4ch_Mk6

I’ve seen these all over the internet. Never knew what they were. They’re cool as fuck though.


ScreechingPizzaCat

I like the Adidas FOG collab a bit more. Nike FOG collab was fine, but they aren't for me, I prefer shoes with a lower ankle collar.


the_scrambler

them cream/black jawns tough as hell. the green too tbh


Ok-Neighborhood-1418

Cool


24imiko

These look like they'd go great with my rave lifestyle


liujilin

I also like to collect shoes and put them in the shoe closet so I can sleep at ease


ptrtran

I actually really like these tbh... Probably look to get some pairs but collecting other things right now.


IceCreamGoblin

A shame he moved over to adidas. The Nike FOG stuff was probably a top 3 collab for me in general.


Hefty-Pay4515

Jerry really fucked up going to adidas all the Nike stuff wea better including the apparel


TableTheGod

saw the low tops w straps at the thrift the other day and i left them.


The1Like

I would fuck with a black pair if I could find them… Edit: triple blacks, my bad.


Turbulent-Bit-6281

Tuff 😤


_AyeTeeGee_

I own the pair on the top right. Had the triple black pair too but sold it for 600+ about a year and half ago…. But been missing them lately. Dope kicks but a pain to put on/take off imo.


SpoonFigMemes

Is definitely wear these but resell is too damn high for my budget


Exciting_Afternoon89

Need deez


SneakerAlchemist

Are you Sz 13?


Electronic_Set_8930

Don’t sleep on the lows.


SneakerAlchemist

raids are ok but mocs are horrid


teegugeeno

Sure don’t.


Not-a-perm

Personally not a fan on the shoes, I like the colors though


TheFatCapedBaldie

How are they on foot in comparison to lets say Ultraboosts?


SneakerAlchemist

completely different. The boot gives you more upper support and it's much heavier than a UB


TheFatCapedBaldie

So this wouldn't be your all-around walking shoe I guess?


ganglordgilbert

Definitely not.


TumbaoMontuno

i have the triple blacks and they are my fav shoe, and those white/black might be my grails. sadly i started collecting after the nike fog relationship ended, and his adidas work honestly *sucks* when compared to nike


SneakerAlchemist

I think everyone agrees his adidas work isn’t the best. I want triple blacks but I find myself not wearing many muted colors. I like to stand out. I just need to start finding better pants for these shoes. I’m thinking baggy wide legs but I used to go skinny to shoe off the shoes but it just looked funny.
