I did but didn't exactly work out.
I live in San Fernando Valley so, only place getting it here that I knew FCFS was shoe palace. Mad hype over there where a lot of people in SoCal, not just SFV, were there camping. HoH was basically impossible at woodland hills, west field mall with their raffles. Size 13 Shoe box filled with tiny raffle tickets and a FSR or two. Figured I would try my luck online and was on FNL. Had no idea at the time how people were buying them before 5 cause I was right at the product page but it wouldn't load. By the time it hit 5, not even a splash page came up lol, Just sold out. And was on NT a lot but would always miss out when someone posted a link.
Sorry, long post but yeah. All my 1s have been purchased by online except for black toes service RSVPd at SM. Anyone up for a camp or hookup in SFV/LA or something I'm up for it lol.

i actually havent gotten any of my 1's from ntchi except the royals(which i dont like)
both blk toes & both shadows came from out of state
but boutiques had blk toes & shadows on rd.... from what i heard they didnt last long after doors opened on rd
After much searching I was able to pick up the Black Toes for 180 which ain't too bad IMO. I'm watching the price of those shadows because the hype wasn't too big on these when they dropped here. I actually held my size in my hand but couldn't cop at that moment. But those and the Blk/reds are all I need. I just know those are gonna be hell to come by. BTW. Did the Black Toes come with red laces like the DMP pack?

You think on purpose? I know they were always the ugly stepchild of the og lineup but i wouldnt be surprised if someone said to me the cw had a more international flavor.I'm almost certain shipment was limited here in the US, and Europe got a bigger portion.

I stay in the valley too fam. I was up there at Shoe Palace number 9 in line and they got only 8 (we knw employees ate the other 4.) luckiky dude in front of me passed and I got em. I also got two guarantee tix at HOH Beverly. Everyone up there slept on em for the Area 72 pack. Only me and 5 other guys camped for a tix. Every store got a size run of all the OG colorway NA 1's but hopefully it changes w the B/reds.

I would figure. Luckily the ones you like the most got slept on sort of speak. I would assume Chicago gets a pretty good amount right?

That was true with royals but even though recently the color choice has taken a beating, just the name Xii and Xi trumps whatever was out then.@AirThompson wow pretty insane. Barely got a pair there. So what time did you head out there to SP?
Problem is, there were other pairs being released that weekend that took attention away from the Royals, even though the royals were still wanted. These Black and Reds will be everybodies priority that weekend. Though there are the XIs and XIIs weeks before.
9/13 by itself doesnt matterThanks man. Yeah I always had to ask the seller a pic of the production date. If it's not the 9/13, you are good to go. So it was tiresome always asking that
I completely understand that bro. I just always figured in my head though if I sold a couple of my own personal pairs I didn't use and since I pass on almost all of the jordan releases except for the OG 1s, then I'd buy the 2013 Royals. I grew up to learn to never settle for anything (imo) so.. That kind of made my mind up. Hoping these shoes will last me a pretty long time lol. But thanks fam! Appreciate it
Sigh. It is done.
After all the salt, struggle, and obstacles since February, purchased two Royals off pp offers in eBay. Definitely not a steal but not at a loss either. One pair worn for 30 minutes for a photo shoot and another DS in total of $690 spent.
Just felt like this was the best that I could do. Extremely rare in my size, and too many GM pairs saturating the market. Too much work in sifting and searching through everything, looking through 5+ sites everyday and it's time for it to end lol. Was not willing to wait anymore when I also feel like market price can jump up to 4-500 and if I'm spending this much, I better get my TTS.
Just glad it's finally over and finally got those elusive Royals.
