Mightve seen some 12.5's or 10.5's too but I wasnt paying enough attention. Anyone looking for those sizes in the area tho should definitely hit them up.
I just hit them up, they have my size but they don't ship. Any one know any places that got these for retail and ships?
Best bet is go to your footlocker with the product number on these, or just ask them to search it...
34th might not ship to people but they might do a store to store purchase...They do it with regular shoes, maybe you can get them to do it with these....
Good Luck...I do know Some Sneaker Villas in PA still have them...but I don't know if they ship...
I'm serious, yall need to start calling and get this done unless you dont want the packs on there.Originally Posted by heat23
UPDATE: Swoosh has not officially scheduled the IX/XIV pack to release on swoosh. Next time you call swoosh, ask them if they can plz note that you want the pack to be on swoosh. The notes will be published in a newsletter/mini mag called "Consumer Talk".
Consumer Talk is a newsletter/mini mag that is made for corporate and it gives them info/feedback on what we want! It's like a petition !
UPDATE: Your orders wont be progressed or ship till the earliest Tuesday

footlocker ala moana is getting a full size run order on wednesday morning (they missed last weeks shipment and have not recieved these packs yet), im sure if people are still in a jam you could go to your local footlocker and order through your store, take all the ones that dont sell in hawaii, free shipping too!

Bingo. Force Field are the way to go. They are comfortable but it really depends on the shoes. I tired to wear them with my 3's and they were a little snug, but they work very well with these 13's and the 10's. Just make sure you don't use the double sided tape. Just position them where you want them and wear. Pull them out after wearing the shoes and place them in the next pair. Don't stuff them to far because they won't work as well.

It seems like most of the people that have been complaining for the last couple days are the people that don't have them or "didn't want the pack anyways". Look people, reselling is simple part of the business model that trickles down from the top. I own a business myself, so i will attempt to sum this up in very simple terms so hopefully the people complaining can understand. Here you go......
Nike pays people in some factory in Asia to make the shoes! They pay the people like $8 a shoe for their work. So Nike says "we realize that there may be a demand for this product and we will charge the consumer(Footlocker, Finishline, etc) more $, who doesn't have a factory to make them like we do." You know what Nike does? You got it, they sell the shoes to Footlocker, Finishline, etc. for more than they paid. You know why? You got it...to MAKE A PROFIT!!!
Next, the retail stores take this same package that Nike paid $8 a shoe, and they don't say "Hey Mr. Nike, why are you charging me $155 for this pack that you guys only paid $8 a shoe for." They say "we realize that there is a demand for this and we will charge the consumer, who doesn't have a Nike account like we do, $310 for the package" so my store (Footlocker, Finishline, etc) can, you got it...to MAKE A PROFIT!!!
Finally, on release day the consumer (us on niketalk) says, "I realize that finishline charged me $310 for this package, but there is a demand for this package and I will charge the next consumer who doesn't have a "connect" or access like i do $400". This is done in a effort to, you got it...to MAKE A PROFIT!!!
A s you can see, what the complainers call "reselling" is really called "BUSINESS", point blank! So what you should be doing is telling "Mr. Finishline" you hate him for being a "reseller", because by all means, that's what Finishline and all the other retail chains are...RESELLERS!!!!!! Basiclly the only difference between Finishline and a guy selling on Niketalk is that Finishline has a store in the mall. Nike, Finishline (and all other stores), and Joe Shmo of Niketalk are all resellers.
My advice to those copmlaining to: Step your game up and make some friends at the retailers in your are to ensure you get a pair. Or get cool with someone on niketalk who is in an area that has a lot of kicks.
