Selling Tips
Always photograph the tread/soles to show the level of wear on the 'cloud' pods. Use keywords like 'Gorpcore', 'Athleisure', and 'CloudTec'. If the original speed laces are included (pictured), mention them as they are a preferred feature. Clean the foam midsoles with a magic eraser to significantly boost the visual 'newness' of the listing.
