You mean their customers?
Tell you the truth a lot of these cats at outlets are jokes. Total blunder on the customer service side from Nike on this one. Bottom line is they should have done this release better and prepped for a higher amount of phone orders, or at the very least afford people who don't live near outlets the courtesy of ordering online. Huge disappointment, Nike employees are crapping on a lot of their best customers with this nonsense.
i agree too bad phone orders cant be made
but from the people on the phone i talked with at outlets from this past week the order for NO phone orders came from someone at nike corporate
outlets are doing so good that my guess is nike dropped these shoes at outlets only for the reason to give people a reason to travel to a outlet rather then call over the phone and buy a shoe
because the shoes are not b grades
i myself got lucky since i dont have a car and cant get to a outlet
why nike dont have a outlet closer to major big city's like Manhattan for example is beyond me
the outlets are a cash cow for nike and this is a way for nike to have more people come to a outlet then ever before
Right. That's the problem. Bottom line, like many here, I've spent thousands on Nikes over the years. If a pair comes out strictly to outlets, who have a known history of doing phone orders, I want one if I call and the shoe is in stock. Period. No questions asked. There's a difference between having a blind sense of entitlement and basic courtesy towards your customers. If it's a pain to the employees at the outlets, quite frankly I don't care. Our demand is what enables them to charge what they do for Jordans. Us, the guys on here. Not John Q and the kids heading to the outlet mall on a Saturday with the kids, who just happens to stumble upon a pair of these. I've worked in retail through both undergraduate and graduate schooling, and in no other business aside from the sneaker game do I see a customer base who is so willing to bow to what the company they're buying from says to this degree. I refused to take no for an answer on a phone order the other day and my pair arrived today. I'm happy I received mine, but it really pisses me off to hear about how the sales reps at outlets nationwide have been complete douchebags over the phone to simple inquiries about stock or the order processes. It's a joke.

Yes all three sets say imagine if on them
I'm actually an 11.5 , i just was lucky enough to get a pair didnt really care what sz it wasi'm an MJ fan AND a sneakerfan
Don't plan on going to ebay, going to try to get a pair for myself and luckily know some sneakerheads buddies that have hooked me up in the past and are a 14 so they will go to people who appreciate them vs some resellers carpayment hahah^ i would have grabbed them too found another pair in my sz & still keep em
also true.....Originally Posted by MBilla4Rilla
One thing that I've noticed, and I don't know if others have mentioned this before or not, is that on the tongue the Nike and swoosh symbol do not have trademark symbols as all the original AJ 1's had (my 2001 breds have it too).
I wonder if this is the REAL REASON why these shoes were scrapped? Nike wouldn't allow their product to be mass produced without having their trademark on there.
