I'm sure JB and Levi's aren't stupid and realize that their may be some conflict with sizes. I am very confident that these two companieswill have a plan to make sure people with size 13 feet don't just randomly get a small t-shirt and size 32 jeans. I think they thought of this beforemaking the pack.

I still cant figure out why the pack cost 395$ lets say the sneaker suggest retail is 200$(my opinion) 50$ shirt, 50$ jeans, 95$ box?+ tax nyc tax 8.375%tax:X
 
Ok, here is what I'm predicting.....

If they let each customer pick the size of each item, then about halfway through the release if not sooner, they are gonna have some mis-matched packs goingout, like a size 40 jeans and a size 8 shoe with a size Large shirt or some crap. Its not gonna match up to make each person get the sizes that they want forall of the people who are buying this pack. Some of this stuff WILL get bought as a "random" pack and then flipped on ebay as separates. It'sguaranteed to happen. Then if there are leftovers, there will be "b-grade" stuff to hit the outlets.

If you are within the first 5 or 10 folks in line, then you'll probaly be ok, after that, its a crap shoot. So to the guys lined up already....congrats ongetting your correct sizes in everything. The rest of you are gonna have to deal with what the "early birds" left behind.

Personally, I think i'ts overkill on the pricing. The t-shirt is worth 30 bucks at most. The shoes we can say are $150 (limited hypebeast release price),Jeans at 100 or so if that. They could have dropped the price by $100 right there. There is no way that the box is gonna cost an extra hundred. No flippingway.
 
Just got a call from my boy strictly vintage.

There is a place in nyc that is selling the set now.

If I get my correct size I'll post pictures later.
 
STOP WITH THESE RIDICULOUS PACKS! denim jordans are dumb...and the inflated price is even more dumb...DUMB AND DUMBER. whoever buys this $400 piece of garbageneeds to get a schooling in common sense.
 
so any final word on the jeans sizing? lol id like to get my hands on the set, but if the jeans arent the right size. PASS!!!
