NIKE Air Jordan IV OG White Fire Red: Black Friday 2020: Nov. 28th

Of course I get a reserve for the Jordan 1 mid bred....SMH....kill me now Nike....

How do you even navigate to EA? I saw the J23 alert for the mids and that link took me to nike.com online (not the app). But can't even find it now directly on Nike. Maybe I have a FR4 reserve hiding somewhere?!
 
I finally get early access and it is for the stupid *** kyrie 7 and not these. **** nike im about to cuss them out again through chat.

looks like i'm waking up early on the 28th/entering raffles/possibly waiting at my local niketown for these. struck out on the shock drop, and didn't get early access for anything.

those of you who scored in the shock drop/early access AND happen to have a med/first responders code, did any of you try to retroactively apply the code through customer service? seemed to work for the infrared AM90s, so hopefully the trend indeed continues for other releases.

Lol same. They gave EA to FRIVs, but I can't get either one?
 
Oh man....another EA for lebron 18s....so that's three today (kyrie, lebron, bred mids)...but no FR4s.....Freak'n nike algorithm.....
 
This sucks took Ls on Jubilee 11s yesterday, and what the 5s today. I wasn't too disappointed on those just had money to burn. I am heated I didn't get early access notification for FR4s, matter of fact I've never gotten early access to anything... EVER or a W from snkrs app... EVER and been in the game around 25 years. If things keep going this way I don't know how much longer I want to play... Nike really needs to start throwing us a bone, or fix their system this just isn't fun anymore. Personally I miss the in store lineups on release days, all these apps are compromised IMO. I went for the 11s, 5s, 4s, and going for 1s, and 35s this weekend so far I'm 0 for 3. I'll probably only end up with the 35s once it's all said and done. :smh:
Can't even spend the money I got burning a hole in my pocket on Rockets gear, now that Russ and James seem to want out...

Sorry guys just had to vent somewhere...

I hear you. Why are we working so hard to get this QC laden, badly shaped retro ;-) when the AMIIIs were pretty easy to get and done almost perfectly. Takes the fun out of it. We also need to cop 2-3 pairs min to hope for a good pair. It's so stupid really. I feel like I've lost my drive to even try for this given all of the other awesome shoes in my collection and a crap-load of 4s too....Why sweat this out for these.....I'll try on RD, but thinking if I oversleep, who cares....will catch on a restock or not at all.

Vent and let it out. I’ve been collection for 15 years. Today is the first time I got EA. On something I wanted. Jumping through hoops and interaction with SNKRS and all the other apps is a headache. If my Frivs are arent decent I’m done with Jb.

Don't know why Nike can just do a subscription based program pay 10 bucks a month or something to get first dibs on EA, shock drops, restocks, or a chance to reserve shoes months in advance so they could know how many to produce. They'd bank on alot of us, because some months we'd be paying to 10$ just to keep the service and may not even be buying anything. I mean it works for amazon... I pay every month and some months I never even open the app to buy anything...
 
I have 1 SNKRS win all-time.
but, for some reason got the EA notice.
proceeded to checkout and forgot my password.
tried multiple times and eventually got it right..and got the Got 'Em screen immediately after.
if these shoes are oddly shaped or pre-creased like the majority of the pairs in this thread, they will be returned without hesitation.
 
I didnt even get a EA notification for these... To think about it, I hasnt received a EA for anything in a long time

They don’t need no subscription money, they making that money. I think they should have a pre order window. They can do it like Nike by you, with out the customization. It would more cost efficient to. Quality could get better and quantities allowed could double. People like it chaotic.

Im no expert so some other type of program like you mentioned would be cool too. They just need to do something else, this system they have now is not working for most of us OGs. It seems like the OG collectors that have been in the game forever, are the one who always take the Ls. Resellers always seem to win...
 
Yeah, subscription would be unreasonable. Just let people pre-pay for EA or pre-order; limit one per person to avoid reseller scams. I suppose they could have numerous accounts, mailing addresses, credit cards, phone numbers, etc., however, Nike would still make the sale. Maybe even don't allow refunds on pre-orders so re-sellers can't return bricks.

A more sophisticated algo/AI could evaluate your ordering history to identify "real customers" who don't just order dozens of the same product over and over.

Anyway, there's lots of devils in the details (I'm a software product manager ;-), however, with some thought something better could be derived no doubt!

OK...rant over....see you on RD for some sweet sweet "easy cop" links my friends!

Netflix can keep people from accessing content they're not supposed to. Uber and lyft can keep people to one account. Nike should have no problem keeping it to one person, or just ban them if they attempt to make multiple accounts.
 
Got a my access link like a minute after release lol was trying for a ps5 anyway of course at the same time - luckily Walmart was a **** show so I quickly went to the snkrs app and grabbed these. Happy I don’t have to deal with that release day hassle. I’m done with buying sneakers for the year ...maybe
 
These will restock 3+ times after release day from everyone returning, trying to mix and match pairs to get a halfway decent pair. I hope the release day pairs will be better than these EA pairs, but probably not.
