This review is for Faculty Hype which is the part of the store where they have Nike and Adidas listed for the “resell” price.

Not sure if I’ll be a regular that often since there are cheaper options available on the web and also throughout the Houston area but if I’m feeling like dropping some dollars then yes The Faculty Hype will be...
