Understanding the Spreadsheet Structure
The spreadsheet is organized by category, then by sub-type, then by batch. Each row includes the seller name, product name, price range, batch code, and QC notes. The most useful columns are the batch code and the last-reviewed date. Always sort by newest if you are looking for the latest releases.
Search and Filter Tips
Use the search bar for exact product names. Use category filters for browsing. Use batch code filters if you already know what tier you want. The 'Last Reviewed' column is the best signal of current quality, because batches change over time.
Search by Product Name
Type the exact name into the search bar. Use colorway names if you know them.
Filter by Category
Use the category dropdown to narrow down to Shoes, Hoodies, or Accessories.
Sort by Last Reviewed
The newest reviews are the most reliable. Old batches may have been replaced.
Cross-Reference Batch Code
Copy the batch code and search Reddit QC threads for recent photos.
Batch Codes Explained
Batch codes are the shorthand for the factory and version. Common codes include PK, LJR, OG, XP, M, and G. High-tier batches are not always the most expensive. Sometimes a mid-tier batch is the best choice for a specific item because the factory specializes in it.
| Batch Code | Tier | Best For | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| PK | High | Yeezy 350, Dunks | Consistent quality, good materials |
| LJR | High | Jordan 1, AJ4 | Accurate shape, good suede |
| OG | Mid-High | Jordan 1 | Budget-friendly high tier |
| XP | Mid | Various | Good for less hyped models |
| M | Mid | Budget options | Decent for the price |
| G | Budget | Starters | Lowest price, acceptable quality |
Common Mistakes
Do not sort by price alone. The cheapest batch is usually the cheapest for a reason. Do not ignore the 'Last Reviewed' date. A batch that was great in 2024 may have been replaced by a better one in 2026. Do not buy from a seller that is not listed in the spreadsheet.
