Official Air Jordan IV white/varsity red RELEASE THREAD 8/4/12: NO BUYING/SELLING/TRADING!

[cucumbercool]

Unlike other fours I think these run true..I bought them in an 8.5 like the others and these are tight...makes no sense..I have to clean the soles and try to exchange for a 9...I don't understand what's the difference.

People in the Seattle area, Finish Line at Southcenter got 150 pairs!!!!! No, they won't do transfers or phone orders; it's first-come first-serve. I'm not sure how many they got left cuz people have been calling them all day. Be sure to go down there to check it out ASAP if you want a pair or two or three.

 

[muzikfrk75]

I'm down for more flops lol

Yeah I need the Bred 4s to "flop" as well lol

 

[just blaze]

Anyone else go to NTSF and deal with this s? These idiots could of atleast posted on twitter that we shouldn't head out there. Instead I end up driving 30min out there, paying for parking and not getting s. smh.

I skipped and passed on my RSVP after another NT member said something about NTSF had a bunch of bad pairs they couldn't get rid of. And that they would call and ship out the shoes when their next shipment came in. Is that what happend? What exactly went down when you got there?

I am afraid to rock my kicks in nice weather. If I lived in Seattle, where it rains year round from what I heard, I am just buying kicks to look at that point. Hell I have all sorts of DS kicks here and my friends keep asking me why I don't wear my shoes.

lol why does everyone think the NW rains year round? it was 100 degrees here today, and from what i've seen— no rain in sight anytime soon.

Shut up..

LMAO, just seen this gif and I can't stop laughing . How he just gonna walk in, throw that hook, and then walk out nonchalantly and in that outfit.

I've seen that gif a million times and this is the first time that I have seen that it was Al Pacino getting slapped.

 

[luckyraye]

I'm kinda interested in what everyone thinks on the leather. I personally feel like its more of the military blue type of leather but some say its like the white cements.

 

[EddieDoyers]

Let these people call this release a "flop"
Maybe this will drive the hypebeasts and resellers away so the people that actually love the shoes can cop with little hassle

 

[khadafi252]

no one's ever happy. people are mad because a sneaker DIDN'T sell out! i don' get it.

rd usually dictates if shoes are a flop and to me it looks like they are going to be when all is said and done. not like the military blues but i wont be surprised if ndc and other online retailers get a lot of returns. personally i think its a dope shoe but so many other better shoes released or are releasing this yr that these dropped on mine and many others priority list. id wish releases were like this though

90° the entire weekend here. Perfectly good weather to rock shoes.

 

[xr a i n m a nx]

two pairs for me!!

lmao @ people sleeping on this release. OG colorway Bulls 4's are some of my personal grails. I was one of the first people in line and was able to get back in line and snag a second pair for myself after buying the first one. if only all OG colorway releases were this easy to pickup.

 

[Nawzlew]

Anyone in Cali ever order from SH? How long do they usually take to ship?

 

[sosa92]

glad these "flopped" easy cop. disappointed in the creasing and the excess glue since the white cements were pretty on point. they still look nice on feet so 

 

[dips]

Still available all over the UK. Nike Europe got them in stock in nearly all sizes.

.
We are only talking about Jordans Not any other Nike product; Jordans have been here longer than Lebrons Kobes or Hyperdunks.
These are classics that are coming back to the public after many years but Lebrons Kobes and Hyperdunks are new so they don't have the special feel that you couldn't have back then. So they should have a high consumer rate.
I am not complaining about this release i am just pointing it out after having to pay reseller price for almost every release i wanted this year. So the reseller FLOPPED because they thought they could buy them out and sell it back Also JB FLOP because they thought they can sellout like they did in the previous months.
i am satisfied for now i can not speak for the others who have having quality issues.

That's not a flop by JB

If they're selling at full price and aren't going to outlets in masses, how exactly are they losing?

Regardless if they sell out in an hour, three days or two weeks, they're getting their money.

Some of you act like these are orions or something

 

[ill steelo]

Got through on NDC. Looks like I could've just slept in & copped at the mall later in the afternoon .

It's all good though.

 

[mcgregor triangle]

Wore mine right away...
I rarely wear Jordans on RD...

Damn, these look great in this pic! Couldn't cop yesterday, gonna have to try my luck at spots this week. There's a "sneaker mall" in town that usually has multiple stores with good releases, think I'll have success?

 

[snaggykicks]

i like the shoes but they came creased also with the tounge to the side smh

 

[dilly1031]

Basically fsr on eastbay and there not a flop Jordan made more like we have been wanting. Now for the gmp everyone's gonna be *****ing how they didn't get them and how Jordan didn't make enough. I love these 4 there sick as **** yes they might come creased but if u buy a .5 down they won't crease that bad when u wear them.

you can't add them to your cart though. I think the smallest you can add is a 13.5

 

[rico7jt]

What does a flop have to do with us?

Are we copping shoes because it sold out in seconds?

Or

We copping because we like that shoe?


ME... im copping because I like the shoe.


It should make no difference to you if a shoe sells out within seconds..... as long as you cop and you like the shoe then its all saucy.

See a shoe sit for hours....... that how it should be, thats how it use to be. I have no problem with that.





AND last thing!

FUNNY how you cats on here saying you copped now because back in 2006 you didnt like the MARS LOGO!

PLEASE all yall calls was D riding that tacky asss. sss logo. There was only a few of us on here that was hating on it.

Keep it real, yall wasnt in it back then, thats all.

 

[squatchnt]

Anybody else, who checked out late on Eastbay, have the "all backordered" message in order status?
