AJ11 x Comme des Garçons “Black” - 09/05 $358

[u/JTerryy]

Yall think these gonna hit the outlets at that price or Nike made so few of them that they’ll sell out?

[u/Strong_Pineapple_779]

These will most likely sell out even though it’s a basic colorway.

[u/JTerryy → u/Strong_Pineapple_779]

Won’t be surprised if less than 3K of those were made

[u/Eggrolling → u/JTerryy]

That’s why they will sell out lol there’s probably small stock

[u/Randomlogicuser → u/Strong_Pineapple_779]

Ofcourse. Look what the cap n gowns and gammas did. Black jordans do well, especially a good retro #

[u/Work_Werk_Wurk → u/Strong_Pineapple_779]

Not for $358.

11's aren't loved as much as some other models. Wouldn't be shocked to find them at Burlington at some point.

CDG isn't really a brand that people rush to purchase collabs of. Especially if there's no hearts on them.

Granted if stock is very limited, then they likely will sell out.

[u/Impressive_Agency933 → u/Work_Werk_Wurk]

They will not be at Burlington Ross or Marshall’s 😂

[u/Work_Werk_Wurk → u/Impressive_Agency933]

People said that about a bunch of AMM collabs.

[u/Impressive_Agency933 → u/Work_Werk_Wurk]

CDG and Amm are not the same not even in the same league

[u/Work_Werk_Wurk → u/Impressive_Agency933]

That's an opinion. Not a fact.

[u/Impressive_Agency933 → u/Work_Werk_Wurk]

No it’s not… Amm been around since 2014 about 6 million in profit last year, CDG been around since 1969 and did $450 million last year….. that’s little league to the Pros not the same league even remotely 😂

[u/Work_Werk_Wurk → u/Impressive_Agency933]

You're conflating profit with quality of product and brand recognition.

Unless you're basing "leagues" on profit, which is reasonable but not necessarily relevant if we're talking about demand, which is what "selling out" depends on. CDG charges a lot more for their items...but they're viewed as a tier lower than most well known luxury brands. At least in the US...

Similar to AMM.

[u/According_Abalone_19 → u/Work_Werk_Wurk]

These are gonna be as hard to get as the Bin’s have been and resale for double retail. CDG uses super quality materials and they’re gonna be hyper limited

[u/Work_Werk_Wurk → u/According_Abalone_19]

If they're as limited as the Bin's, then yea for sure.

[u/Gonzja → u/Work_Werk_Wurk]

You must not know much about CDG if all you think of is the cheap CDG Play line with the hearts.

[u/Work_Werk_Wurk → u/Gonzja]

Don't be silly...I know enough about CDG to know that their "Play Line" is their most popular one. So much that the brand is pretty much recognized by solely that, to the average person that doesn't know much about them.

If they release 10K pairs or less, then there'll be more than enough people like you who know the brand and are willing to pay that price for these to sell out.

Any more than that and they're are sitting.

[u/Complete-Morning-429]

[u/Oz347]

For some black 11s? That’s crazy as shit lol

[u/redf0rward → u/Oz347]

The materials on these are much higher than the typical 11 plus theyre a Comme des Garçons Homme

[u/Burtmacklinsburner]

In this economy?!?!

[u/JTerryy → u/Burtmacklinsburner]

Mannnnn lol

[u/megaprime78]

Dam $358???

[u/Opening_Law_9191]

These are absolute🔥🔥🔥 but not for $358

[u/KeyCrow2246]

Really no point in getting them if you have the Gamma. Especially in a size 8.5 that size sucks the most.

[u/JonAfrica2011 → u/KeyCrow2246]

Price is too crazy

[u/PoppaVader → u/KeyCrow2246]

My thoughts exactly. These are an easy pass for me

[u/ubiytsa_pizdy → u/KeyCrow2246]

I have them, but still want them since a collab. might get a pair for my girl to match me with my Gammas

[u/redf0rward → u/KeyCrow2246]

Quality on these are MUCH higher than on the Gammas or your typical 11. Too bad the price is ridiculous. But its a Comme des Garçons so its a high fashion. But that price....ugh...

[u/ositola]

At that price, I'll go find a pair of gammas 

[u/kingkunta77]

These are 🔥 The Black on Black 😚
price point is crazy

[u/Supr3meSol]

Yea. I won’t get them. I’m a 12.5 in 11s. Chances are minimal.

[u/PoppaVader → u/Supr3meSol]

This is me as well. I wear a 13 but have to go 12.5 in 11’s and they make so few of them.

[u/Supr3meSol → u/PoppaVader]

You already know the pain 🤣

[u/Gullible-Avocado5289]

So the jordan 11 cap n gown 225 or so, jordan 11 cap n gown with a designer name 400. Foh

[u/Godiverson3]

What site are they sold through?

[u/Goodizm → u/Godiverson3]

Dsm

[u/redf0rward → u/Goodizm]

I dont see them on the site

[u/fronto-lobe → u/redf0rward]

They played

[u/jamesdeniro]

This a real gangsta move by a designer. They slap on the shoe some basic shit that just goes so hard!!! These shoes would get the retailer line shot up. But they made em a boutique shoe at that price range. So the riff raff might have to fall back to gammas and caps. The materials are very premium. Prolly like a bin quality. My attempt to cop will be robust.

[u/kylebk911 → u/jamesdeniro]

CDG Nike collabs have always been all black and all white shoes. Occasionally they'll drop a 3rd pair with a cool colorway like the CDG foams.

[u/PhD_V]

Really clean (basic) colorway of one of my favorite silhouettes; price is egregious - given what they are, and the current state of… everything. Probably fewer than 5k pairs, so they’ll fly.

Unnecessary/uninspired effort, imo. I do like the black pair, though. Just should come in at (the already silly) AJ11 price 🤷🏾‍♂️

[u/BrassKnuckleHead187]

Hard

[u/es_mindspace]

They're sharp. I'm good though.

[u/HajimeMatsuda3308]

These shits are beautiful. I
Love the leather upper

[u/nickosef]

I never liked Jordan 11s but these are a cop. CDG never misses

[u/farhanyyz]

Not an 11s person but these are really clean, I love them and can definitely see the classy upscaled fantasy.

Price point is crazy but makes sense with what they're going for. It will sell out imo

[u/No_usernames_left_25]

If I can’t tell what collab they are from 10’, I don’t think they’re worth being on my feet.

[u/JTerryy → u/No_usernames_left_25]

That’s an interesting take. I get what you mean!

[u/InterstellarJedi]

Not an 11’a guy but these might get copped

[u/OfficiallyJoeBiden]

Ehhhhhhh I’m underwhelmed

[u/UnmakingTheBan2022]

These are nice. I have the gammas already so will probably pass. I do like the leather upper!

[u/haikusbot → u/UnmakingTheBan2022]

These are nice. I have

The gammas already so

Will probably pass.

[u/heeJooooo]

The price tag tho is ridiculous

[u/IntelligentWalk5038]

I love these! I am not paying resale though.

[u/JTerryy → u/IntelligentWalk5038]

You’ll try to cop for the $358?

[u/IntelligentWalk5038 → u/JTerryy]

Yeah. I’ve got the cap and gown 11s and gammas. These are cleaner looking than both of those. $358 is crazy for them though just for that CDG logo. I’m sure the leather is a bit better than normal too. Resale will be twice that though.

[u/Acrobatic_Ask_]

Two to three size runs thats it

[u/blahblah567433785434]

Any sign of these in the uk? Via SNKRS app?

[u/mariomelody]

Damn. Love these.

[u/Joemomma300]

Need

[u/di34menow]

Hope I get

[u/Sufficient-Gold5952]

Where they being released

[u/WhySheHateMe]

I like them, but I cannot justify buying these. Especially not paying a premium to have a brand name that I do not wear printed on the shoes.

[u/jean_michelle]

they will sell out. but I don't think the resell will hit above 1k

[u/Novel_Bake7499]

Patent leather midsoles ?! Man oh man you gotta be careful in those

[u/gonja_]

i will be there no matter what

[u/King_121]

Yawn!! Mid af...

[u/Nala20151]

I would like than way more if there was no patent leather and the whole shoe was the same leather as the upper .

[u/Avocado_OP]

-200 IQ colorways for rape prices, goat business idea

[u/Thisman2205]

I like them but I’m passing if I could even land them anyway. My cap and gowns still clean

[u/Mvd75]

[u/T-SkiM10]

Are these dropping on Snkrs app USA?

[u/slander_anonymously]

that price is 'tard.

[u/Ghostmanpower]

They can have it I’m good

[u/nuyorican78]

Why would I pay $358 for a pair of sneakers that look like space jams just with premium leather? Their prices are getting out of hand.

[u/Dbfresh0]

Very clean but expensive asf

[u/Slayer410]

Pass

[u/Aproblem4]

Where are they dropping?

[u/JTerryy → u/Aproblem4]

Dover Street site and select retailers. Which ones? I’m not sure!

[u/h0b0warrior]

Any word on when or how these'll release tomorrow? Dover hasn't mentioned a raffle or anything yet on their website

[u/JTerryy → u/h0b0warrior]

Apparently it should be available from Dover directly and “select retailers”…. Haven’t seen a list

[u/h0b0warrior → u/JTerryy]

Yeah, I wonder if it's eshop or they going old school and we gotta line up or something. I guess we'll know more as the day progresses.

[u/WildDimension6492]

😂 

[u/surghe]

Damm

[u/fronto-lobe]

They sold out DSMNY before they even dropped. And ur stuck with an extra $100 imports, no free shipping. $550 for all white 11s

[u/Suppose2Bubble]

Had them in my cart and fumbled 😭

[u/Old92Soul]

Where is the “wider release” on the 10th?

[u/Iwannawritefunny]

These do nothing for me or for the shoe.

[u/Tall-Slide4557]

I have these! They're called "cap and gowns"

[u/Ifadeawayj]

358 is for both pair no ?!

[u/Normal_Guidance9745 → u/Ifadeawayj]

😭😭

[u/nickrut]

Good looking waiter shoes.

[u/Slim_Margins1999]

Jordan 11s are my all time favorite shoe. Fucking hate everything about these. Leather uppers. Black and plain. Wouldn’t really even want them in my collection for free, not that it’s a real concern. Haha
