Retro- a “Retro” release is just a release (or re-release) of a colorway that happened after the shoe model’s initial release. Beaters- Beaters are the already worn out sneakers but you still wear them from time to time. What’s different for sneakers is that the colorway is often at least as important as the actual model of the sneaker. Grails- a “grail” is a pair of sneakers that someone wants more than any other pair. On ice- Having a pair "on ice" means you have a pair of deadstock kicks that you haven't worn yet.
