Any Sneakerheads In The House?

These Air Force 1 Hi came today. The material wasn't quite what I was expecting, though. But for $60, I'll deal.

The material isn't that smooth leather, but I don't see what materials these shoes are, @Ventruck. Lol

Looks like some kind of soft touch texture like nubuck?

Perhaps. There is no material sticker or anything on the box or shoes.

I see my local Foot Locker was among the 110 that was slated to close in 2018.

I only noticed it when I walked past the empty store front on the way to the UPS Store to get my shoes.

So, Tallahassee has NO Foot Locker stores. The one in the mall closed before the end of the year.

Retail is a beast.

I assume it was lack of traffic and general retail transitioning to being more online-based. Even in a dense area where I'm at, a lot of things realistically sit. Stores mainly move limited releases, or things that finally hit discount.

I really walk into stores just mulling leftovers. 90% I'm not walking out with anything. Sad truth is if it's something I (you, or most anyone would) want, odds are many other people want it, and more and more it seems those other people will do more to try to get it.

Perhaps. The store was in a shopping plaza with lots of traffic and plenty of students and locals.

From what I noticed, selection wasn't there.

Just an end of an era... Foot Locker is just everywhere! I guess there is the website and I can shop their related stores in the mall, if it's that serious.

The mall location that closed... Just lots of stores and not enough dollars, I guess. Tallahassee isn't all that chain friendly. Half of the stores are "outlet" (ok, I may be exaggerating). Selection sucks and the internet or out of town is where it's at.
