I wonder if it means anything that Adidas posted a different link yesterday than today. I'm leaning towards it just being a way they measure traffic/clicks or something, but still. Also RIP NT servers?
Interesting, this is the first thing that points towards it being (a little bit) random after all. The window is short, but odds might just be even once you reach the standby screen.
I was refreshing the app while people on here were saying it was open and it still said it was closed for me. I might have even still had closed after the tweet went out. Mildly steamed, it's not like odds were so great anyway, but it would have been nice.
I was reading thread thinking "Now I know they're trolling" when they said it was open and my app still showed red, reservations closed. Mulstic

Size 10 Chicago no longer available
Jordan 2.0 and 8.0
Uppers streamlined, modern cushioning used, herringbone traction, etc. I really like how both of those feel on foot but I swear I still see them on clearance racks now and then. My dream would be an 11.0. They already had the carbon fiber in the midfoot; just update it to...
XX3s feel pretty great on foot- best performing Air Jordan after the XX8/9. The cushioning is nice and responsive, if anything even bouncier than my OGs. Upper fit and lockdown is solid. The biggest issue I see is that they warm up pretty quickly and the pinch on your pinky toe.
Retail was $225...
Nope. Adidas Chicago had 300+ pairs alone and there were a solid 10+ other shops that got em. Put down 500 pairs for Chicago and similar or more for New York and LA and you're pretty much at 2k already, never mind the rest of the world and online.
2K would be around Doernbecher Jordan...
I went up half a size (my usual was sold out) and they fit fairly well. They feel more snug than my og XX3s but I do get the impression that'll ease up as they break in. Speaking of break in, I'd forgotten about the squeeze you get initially from where the midsole wraps up and across the upper...
Side note: things are happening really fast for shops. They're not all playing dumb when they talk about not knowing what's going on. One shop that got them last time was salty about not getting this release on Sunday. On Monday they were on the list and doing tickets, but when I asked if they...
Chicagoland report. First the BS:
Leaders "isn't getting them" aka they're probably back doored and not even half convincing.
Succezz is having their raffle Saturday; winners get to pay resale anyway.
RSVP got very little stock and openly admits most of them went to friends +family. What's left...
I'm really liking this shoe: very solid built without being as bulky as the Lebron X. It feels like more of a signature shoe than most of the sigs Nike's been putting out lately. As soon as something more blacked out releases I'm going to be awfully tempted.
The Prisms' "official" nick name has to be one of the worst ever and I'm loving the way no one's using it. The smooth upper looks so better than the standard mesh and seems a lot more playable than most EXTs. These materials with a more subtle colorway would tempt me even at this price point...
I just picked up oceans at my local FTL. This was their first shipment of fluxes but since it's a basketball mall (iguanas roshes probably still sitting) no one seemed to care. The phone seemed to be ringing off the hook though, don't know how many times I heard "Yo, we got a size x in the...
