Where do I buy G-6s? (no E-bay)ps- I searched

Post by RawSko »

I really, really wanna buy a pair and I searched more then once through old posts and such for links but I couldn't find any that would work for me... (due to: out of stock/ wrong shoe/ etc)

Could somebody please post a link to site where I can buy a pair? I can't use E-Bay... I'm really sorry if there was some kind of gold mine on this topic and I zoned out and missed it... I did search though.

Keep it real!!

The only kind I can find that are not on ebay are here:

http://www.hiphopville.us/shop/products ... -unit.html

They are weird, but they have a variety of men's sizes. The only other ones that I can find for sale are only available in size 8 for some odd reason. And they're expensive.

Why can't you use ebay? Because you don't have a credit card? If you have any money, then I recommend opening a checking account at your nearest bank... you'll get an ATM card and you can use that to get a Paypal/eBay account. I think it's worth it.

the people there are very friendly and the shoes are pretty cheap (depends on the model though).
i even got a discount on my shoes and got them for like 50$. it just sucked that i had to pay a lot of shipping to europe and then taxes.
i'll ask the company if other people can use this discount as well.

Thanks Verena, that's a sweet place to get g-units from, but there's a bunch of different styles and I was wondering which ones do we need?

Thanks!

EDIT: I found the ones I need, but I'm size 12 so they would cost me more that US 100...Verena, how did you get the discount cuz I think I need it. 8O

yeah. first time that it's actually good to have small feet since smaller g-units are a lot cheaper.
with discount code: SK4TEN you'll get 10% off.
i think i can get a 15% discount code as well. i'll keep you informed.

those shoes are only 45$ (regular prize). i think they are the right ones, though they look a bit small on the picture. this only goes for people with feet that aren't bigger than size 10.

with this code:
95-30
you'll get 15% off. sounds pretty good. :D


edit: if you order shoes from this site, it'd be maybe a good idea to say something about footbag in a comment.

Thanks alot everyone! I need a size 11.5 I think... my lavers now are a 12, but they're not exactly snug. I've heard that they should be pretty snug. I think I'm going to buy the bigger White/Black ones verena posted. They look VERY ill. Is the company in Ontario??? I went to call them and it listed thier adress in Ontario! Is that just the nearest outpost, or is that where the shoes will be shipped from? That'd be siiick if it's in ontario... Thanks alot!

If you're in the US, Ben, I'm willing to be your middleman on ebay for some G-units. Makes it easier for shipping I suppose. PM me. :)

The shop is in Ontario California Ben. Why is it that you can't order off ebay? You'll probably get a better deal that way.

Remember that the g-unit's run a half size large. I tried on a size 9 and it fit even though my size 9 1/2 lavers are tight.

The version IIIs are possible to play in, but the shoes for freestyle are the version Is.
