I want the following to drop next year
PLAYOFF 8’s (with the red pull tab on the back like the OG pair.)
Bred, Cherrywood and Ginger 16’s
Cherry 12’s
Fire Red 5’s with “Nike Air” branding
Carmine 6’s with “Nike Air” branding
All the OG 17’s with the briefcase included LOL
They probably won’t...
I’ve never tied my 11’s. I always sloppy lace them. To each his/her own but I just hate seeing people wear them laced so tight that it’s looks like they’re about to do some warm ups in the lay up line LOL. Tape over the NIKE AIR protect it from flaking off at all cost.
Took a stroll through eBay and got a good laugh at the resell prices LOL. They must not know they’re available everywhere! A lot of people secured a pair after the cut off time for pick ups. There was a guy in line this morning talking about reselling his 5 pairs for $400 a pop I laughed so hard.
I HOPE TO GOD MY PAIR DOESN’T HAVE ANY FLAWS TOMORROW. My 2011 pair I got from Finishline had glue stains on the patent leather, a black scuff mark on the white midsole and my shoe lace on the right shoe was longer than the one on the left. Smh.
This process is frustrating but I’m thankful for it. I won 2 raffles. Last time these Concords dropped me and friends waited in the mall parking lot from 12am to 3am then we snuck in the mall and hid in the back hallway from 3am to 9am when the mall opened and STILL had to wait an hour at...
I ended up getting mine from my local House Of Hoops. I waited in my car from 12am till about 5:30am then the store manager pulled up and started passing out guaranteed tickets. They opened at 8am and I got the first pair. They ended having 260 pairs total. Sold out by 10am though.
I'm currently waiting in my car outside the House Of Hoops in my city (Winston-Salem,Nc). We were lined up outside mall security said we had to wait in our cars. As it stands in 5th in line. Store doesn't open till 8am. Just a few more hours to go. This **** is super lame that I have to wait out...
The sneakers stores in my area always wait til the last minute to call. I remember in 2013 when the Breds dropped I got a call while I was standing in the line at another spot smh.
I have a strange feeling I'll be packing an overnight bag for my car and leaving straight from work Friday to park and wait at the mall until 8am Saturday when my House Of Hoops opens up. It's super lame that I have to do this but I an NOT missing these Royals for a 3rd time in a row.
I'm gonna hit Jimmy Jazz tomorrow. Normally I don't raffle there because the store manager would always sell the shoes to whomever would toss her an extra $50 or $75 dollars on the side. They fired her last May the Friday before the Flu Game 12's came out (thank god).
I'm about to head out and start the mission smh. Hitting the raffles at Champs, DTLR, Footaction, and Athletes Foot. Then I'm gonna see if I can get some info from the store manager at House Of Hoops about how many pairs they''ll actually have available. He usually keeps it real with me. Anytime...
