Anyways, I went to talk to the guys in Footlocker and it turns out the True Blues were shipped to their store from another store in Europe for not selling. I guess people in Rome picked them up but that last pair (9.5) is sitting because it's dirty/borderline used. If JB ever pulls something like this again (releasing a sought after shoe outside the US only) I'll try to look out for ya'll.
On another note, wow I didn't know we had that many NT'ers in Europe.
Portugal, France, London, Netherlands, Poland, etc? That's dope. I might need to PM ya'll before I start traveling this spring/summer.

Also, on the italian online Nike Store (dunno whether it's just the european one translated or not) they still got plenty of Retro XII's (White/Red, Black/Red, White/White or whatever - haven't seen them on here yet) SJ's and DMP's. (VII's and I's).

well put sir
thanks, just tried making it easier to see the grand scheme of things
Trust me here in France, apart from Paris, nobody knows what a quality sneaker is. They don't even know what a sneaker is!! So that's true Basketball is like the 3rd sport behind soccer and rugby, but sneakers are just behind all sort of things in people interest. Here in France, sneakers are called "BASKETS" lol, people think I'm crazy coz I'm a sneakerhead. You'll see guys wearin some random AF1, not even knowing what they are...
And as I stated earlier, thugs are the target for FL here. These a**holes are wearing Air Max Tn, which are basically an ugly shoe, so that's what you'll see if you come in a FL in France... the remainder won't sell. That's the only truth... But I don't care. It's been a long time since I bought anything from FL.

The managers in that particular are really nice and seem cool but I don't place a lot of faith in their words anymore.
I asked dude if they were getting the white/red XII's when I was there to pick up a pair of SJ's for my boy. The manager told me no chance, so I saidcool and secured two pair from Eastbay. Two days later I'm up in Rome for a date and while waiting for shorty to show up I pop up in Foot Locker and whatdo I see staring me in my face....the white/red XII's. This happened with the Flu Games and the Space Jams as well. Unacceptable. I'm guessing theyreally just dont know the product like that, or they really have no idea it's coming until they're opening the boxes. I'm almost willing to bet theVI's will pop up even after he told you he wasn't getting them.
