Official LeBron X Thread Vol. 2: Corks and Volts Launch 2/23

[thapointguy]

The past couple of pages have been all about the corks.... Which is understandable, but just to get a little mixture in the thread, does anyone know how limited the volts are going to be?

Just another GR.

Probably limited GR. Two HOH in my area are getting them and no FTL on the locator are.

Well for me it's because he is giving himself no chance at retail. If you are willing to drop 800 on a sneaker whats an extra 200 if you strike out. On the flip side if you somehow land them for retail that is 500.00 you can spend on something else. TO ME I would try retail first.

If they do resell for more than that, which they probably will, the why not try that too? Then sell one.

Man screw this. I live in Cincinnati and the closet place that's getting them is in Florida. (So i've heard) Anyone know any place? I figure i'll have to try my luck on NDC now 

Villa in Cleveland is getting them and one in chi is also but is a line already in the chi

Well, my local store is getting them. My plan now is to get all my friends and put down 15 people on the raffle and just attack one size, should be able to get 1. If that doesn't work, I'm waiting for unclaimed pairs right after NDC release and they give them out at 6, maybe someone can't do 305 or gets stuck in traffic of has work. I think I have a good strategy right?

Looks like there's 4 confirmed spots getting corks in Miami. One of the benefits of having Bron play for the home team I guess

Hoh, shoe gallery, Unkwn and which is the 4th?

solefly

I'd be willing to bet there's two more spots that might get them.

 

[skip2mylou23]

do the corks come with the sport pack? is that why they are 305 retail?

No...$305 for the material.

Probably 305 for the hype and the area code of Miami.

Sounds like a good strategy to me. I was contemplating doing something similar to that myself.

Well at least you were honest about it...and it won't hurt to use spell check next time either...ijs.

 

[curtdiggler]

i know a place in atl thats getting em, but if i cop em ima rock em. problem wit that is that i dont know how a shoe made of cork will hold up. the chance of them falling apart takes the want away for me. And i refuse to cop a shoe just to sell it....cant do it....unless i had two pair. lol. I aint ballin like dat at this time, we all know that every year one pair comes along like this, so i'll probably cop the next one.

wow that guy wasnt playing when he told rif he was gonna bring in a couple of pairs of corks

true. I guess what it boils down to is, in a couple of months there will be another "raffle only" sneaker, and i spent enough in the last 2 weeks to even think about buying these. As much as id like to have em, i wear my kicks no matter what and the white sole plus fragile nature of the corks make it easier for me to fall back. There will be another. yeezy, galaxy foam, yeezy 2, corks....my chance will come to join the exclusive gang soon enough! believe me nike will make sure of it.
