I ordered from that restock also, they said the restock should be coming in on jan 10... how come these shops in europe are having restocks but none in the US ?

Because NIKEtown Europe has a FSR still and probably will until they go on sale, i'm tempted to get my brother to my me another pair out there, but it doesn't seem worth it, I have my two already.

Everyones foot is different. 

yea but your the only one saying they run a 1/2 size small. could give the wrong impression for someone looking to buy. dudes feet be all balled up for going 1/2 size down because they listened to you

im a 9.5 as well and opted for the roomier 10. it just depends on your individual foot.
experience has taught me that trying on a shoe in-store is always the best way to go about finding what your best fit is. and if youre buying online, just run over to the store and pick up that same model and try it on.

Can't do this with a release like the Cool Greys, you have to hope and pray you get a pair and if you do, hope the size you bought fits you. That's why we asked all the people who ran out and bought them early, to get an idea on the sizing, they led us astray when they said they fit like the Space Jams, lucky for me my .5 size bigger Cool Greys fit

emailed CT numerous times.  No response.  I got other pairs no problem, but it still pisses me off.  I pay 383 for them shoes, and 2-3 weeks later, i still dont have the shoes, cause they are being held in custom.............while everyone else gets theirs.  I dont understand.  Are my shoes packed with bombs or something?  Why does custom need to hold them for 2 weeks....

^ It may be time to charge back your CC if they are not responding. good luck hope you get it resolved.

Yeah, I don't know if there's a good explanation for why customs holds packages... I wish I knew why myself.  But if the shoes are in customs, I don't think there's much that CT can do about it...

They might think they're counterfeits? Or they could be sitting in someone's office there ready to be worn.

fixed....
Hope you get your kicks.

This was the very reason why I didn't want to order from over seas. for issues like these.

I looked at mine again this evening and they dont look that bad. I just that color doesn't spread to the soles.

THE American recession is over. In the summer of 2009 real GDP and industrial production hit bottom and resumed growth, and expansion in both measures strengthened as the year ended. Industrial production has continued to grow in early 2010 as, in all likelihood, has output. By the end of the current quarter the American economy may have returned to its pre-recession peak in real GDP.


Read moar.

they've kept the bottoms of my yeezys flawless...

i'm also thinking about dyeing these a deeper blue, cuz they seem not to yellow at all from that thread where peeps were dyeing their icey soles with royal blue dye.

proto your going to wish you never put those sole savers on your shoes cause your going to have hell removing that sticky residue it leaves, i had some on my space jams last year and its good thing i took them off earlier because the residue was hard to get off and the method they recommend to get it off with the alcohol still leave the residue and if you don't clean it good and wear them out side the dirt and whatever else is on the ground will stick to your sole

I never order more than one item at a time from the overseas sites. I had to order a pair from CT, Hanon and a preorder from End. Got my crookedtongues order Christmas eve and Hanon came through the Monday after. They are probably inspecting you guys packages.

Has nothing to do with Crooked Tongues. It is being held at us customs. US CUSTOMS is ridiculously shady about their procedures. I would contact them asap and push for your sneakers.

QFT CT came through for me got my pair Christmas eve  double boxed.

When a fellow NT'er mentioned that he ordered two pairs of Flints from overseas and was charged
a customs fee, i figured that it would be attributed to the weight issue and that being the culprit of the fees.

I cancelled a second pair from Crooked Tongues simply becuz i presumably thought that that would
happen to me as well...

And EddoG's situation simply proved me right.

Althought, no concrete evidence to prove... but i don't see why it would be otherwise.


Customs is crap. Can't place any blame on CT cuz they did their part and shipped necessary item.


Just keep in mind in the future. One item at a time. Avoid the penalty of having your merchandise
held for random - cuz they sure ain't taking my dollars unless they dance for me.
