What you think the allocation that store gets for the SBB and bred 16?

Any other store in NYC doing guranteed pairs or every chain is raffles?

For BReds most of the major spots are doing FCFS .... The BReds being sold are apart of a pack with the XXX1 but most folks aren't interested in the pack.
 
4000
 
Comparing the black/red preorder pricing to the black toe's, I know don't man. I would love to preorder them but I just get this feeling that once the release date nears and hype goes up, all current preorders will be cancelled and the prices will go up accordingly.


Sobe soles ever cancelled preorders before?

Yes. Sbbs, for many of us on here were. :rolleyes
 
If anyone here ordered the Chicago 1's or Metallic 5's, etc from us know we always honor our prices and preorders. We only made a small quantity available for preorder at the price.


So the black toes price is locked in no cancellations?
 
WENT BY 34TH.. THAT LINE IS VICIOUS .. THEY SCREWED ME ON WRISTBANDS.. HAD NO IDEA YOU NEEDED ONE UNTIL I GOT ALL THE WAY HOME AND THEN THEY WOULDNT ANSWER THEIR PHONE TO KNOW IF IT WAS WORTH IT TO GO BACK... GETTING SHOES IN 2016 IS SUCH A TASK ITS MAD ANNOYING

NEEDED A PAIR OF SBB'S BAD TO SWAP FOR CHI'S.. AHH WHELP.. AS USUAL I TOOK THE L. HOPE I CAN AT LEAST GET A PAIR OR TWO OF BANNED 1'S THIS WEEKEND

What time did you get there?  I was thinking about waking up at 4am and getting there by 5am to see how bad it was.  Decided I needed sleep way more than to struggle for shoes...
 
@sonicjai I WENT AT LIKE 815 WHICH WAS 15 MIN BEFORE OPENING SO OF COURSE THE LINE WAS BONKERS.. I HAD PLANS ON ARRIVING EARLIER BUT THEY SCREWED ME ON THE WRISTBAND WITH LACK OF INFO.. SO, I DIDNT WANT TO LINE UP FOR HOURS TO BE TURNED AWAY ON A TECHNICALITY.. IM STILL PISSED ABOUT IT.. WHAT CAN YOU DO THOUGH

It makes me wonder how well these would've sold if they sold these as an exclusive pack with the XXX1s like they did with the 11s and XX9s in the GOF pack..

YOU MUSTVE 1. NOT READ WHAT I WROTE 2. NOT BE IN THE BANNED THREAD 3. BE EXTREMELY LUCKY WITH RELEASES LIKE CHI, SBB, ETC.. NOT EVERY THING IS A GR OR EASY TO GET.. SURE WC IV'S, METALLIC V'S, ETC WERE EASY OR "SITTING" BUT SOME FOLKS ARE DELUSIONAL (NOT SAYING YOU ARE).. A LOT OF THE "GOOD" STUFF IS SOMETIMES HARD AF IF NOT IMPOSSIBLE TO GET.

IN 2016 YOU HAVE TO PUT IN RAFFLES, SOMEHOW FIND OUT ABOUT GRAND OPENINGS LIKE 34TH, ENTER A DRAW, DODGE RESELLERS, HOPE THE ATC BOTS DONT EAT UP STOCK, DO FCFS, BRING YOUR FAMILY WITH YOU TO RAFFLES... YOU CALL THAT EASY?

You're right hyped releases like SBBs aand Banneds are hard to get but like I said ALMOST every Jordan Retro release is a walk in the park. In 2013-2014, this was not the case and barely any retros would sit like they do now.

Honestly, it has been harder getting Adidas releases lately than Jordans.

No size 14 on the preorder for the black toes?
