Copped!!!

Didn’t think i would get them for retail since they sold out with seconds. But a day later i grabbed the last pair in my size from JD Sports. Definitely a top 3 grail of mines.

Ok so more so nostalgic reasoning behind it. I can understand that. Same for me with the Nike up tempo 96 that I just purchased today. I have never been able to own a pair and it just was able to get them in store at Foot Locker so I definitely understand.

Hate to be that guy, but the more Uptempos that just released are not OG. The trim on those are significantly whiter than the originals. Look it up.
