2013 "Suns" 8s

[seandon23]

I'm praying they resolved that paint issue. I heard the retro 8's before the 2007 batch didn't have that problem

I hope they fix the paint problem because I would be upset if they didn't fix it on the playoffs releasing this year

 

[uniquekickz]

1st off you cant compare playoffs 8s to this retro+. 2nd I understand if some ppl dont like it due to the colors...but in all reality ppl are buggin knocking this cw.

Also recently, I read on sneakernews that these are actually a Carmelo #PlayforNY campaign c/w (tweeted by jordan brand). Pls feel free to correct me if im wrong.

I made an order on finishline with WC rewards once I got it to work but I just called and put in a cancel request. Does anyone know if that WC code will now be void? forgot to ask

Not sure but FNL must be on that rock because they already sent me tracking.

They could be considered:

Suns because of the 3 peat

Knicks because of the cw

Bobcats because of Mike owning the Bobcats

But after all the debate I'm just going to call them the Citrus 8

 

[anthracite8s]

Yes it will. Should have got them and just returned them in store. I'm getting confused with all of your purchases and canceled orders this morning lol, did you end up with a pair of these?

ladfjlkalsj;dfjl;ksadfjlk that's the lamest thing ever. Why did I do that that totally defeated the purpose of copping on eastbay. oh well. lol I ordered on eastbay, cancelled, bought with ebates, then ordered on fnl and was gonna cancel the eastbay, cancelled fnl and now aced myself out of a WC for the black toes

 

[squatchnt]

Call customer service and see if they can help, ya never know...

 

[cashm0neyand1]

its very funny that someone is actually trying to sell their ordered ndc pair with a screen grab of the confirmation on eBay. lol

 

[mike motto]

Look more like knick 8s

 

[sniper23]

In person, these look alot better. The official color I believe is Citrus and Deep Royal Blue, which is wierd because the Suns wore purple. I have more Blue than Purple, so I'm ok with it.

 

[sniper23]

Did everyone else think they looked better in person as well?

 

[footsoldier]

I thought the opposite. But the material was definitely on point.

 

[bluedeniro]

these look terrible in person worst release of the year, not even a Barkley authentic could save these

if you're wearing a barkley jersey with anything but barkley kicks then you got other issues.

sounds like jb knows these are sitting. trying to come with some crap about a melo campaign to try make em sale

 

[jlinn237]

Copped was the only person this morning and went back to hibbetts in the afternoon sold out. Nice shoe love the 8s.

Sitting

Another young kid

Sitting after a day? JB used to have kicks sit for months and go on sale for like 60% off. So I highly doubt they're worried about kicks not selling out in minutes. I swear the consumer is backwards where they now look for shootings and camping out for days to justify their purchase and make them want a sneaker.

Crimon's, they're sitting. Photo blues, they're sitting.

But they're still in the top ten list of basketball sales releases at the end of each quarter.

 

[charmcitykid]

where are the pics from all who copped in store?? i was looking forward to seeing them.

 

[sneakerfan1]

Hit the local mall to burn these Footlocker rewards bucks. Wound up stopping at FNL.

These are very nice. Kid in the store was all "no one wants these." Told him good, I don't mind being the only one with 'em.

This material is a slight grade below the Durabuck of old, but good nonetheless. Still irks me that the Black Cement 4s didn't get this Durabuck. Will definitely grab before they dry up. Gotta start planning these releases around my WC rewards as $119+tax would've been dope.

 

[jordan23les]

there's a fsr on eastbay, was able to add a 10.5 to cart

FSR everywhere

Easy Cop for All.

 

[mrpopadopolous]

These are a pretty nice, new color way. I may have preferred that even the cool grey parts were also black, but I still like them a lot. If I was a person who copped like 3-4 releases a month I would have def. copped.

Wait footlocker does rewards like FNL?

 

[Magic33]

Yep, That's why I prefer them and FNL. Footaction does it too, and Champs adds to your Footlocker card.

Not sure if you have to be a platinum VIP or if they do it for regular VIP members

but it's

$10 for $100
$15 for $150
$20 for $200

You can use them on anything, because you enter them as gift cards. On the site and for the employee at the register. There is no rejecting them like birthday coupons on a release day. I'm shocked more people don't know about it.

I got like eight of them in the mail one day. Gave one to a friend for his foams and ended up buying like 12 pair(two packs for $19.99 plus tax) of socks for a $1 to unload a couple of more.

It also helps now that footlocker has free shipping for a lot of their stuff now. Got a bunch of fitteds for $16.

 

[steelogreen]

^^ cool I been going to fnl every release so far i spent 600 in like 2 months (bugs,grapes,suns) so thats 60 dollars I can use for the fire red summer. But now I know Footlocker does it I don't have to worry about always going to FNL.
