As some ppl asked about it: I'd camped out at Overkill, for approximately 14 hours to get the Master of Air.
Yes, they(and all the other stores around) had much more pairs compared to the OG Release (while for the OGs Solebox had 13 pairs and Overkill around 26 - what I heard) - BUT the demand was straight up crazy as well. At times they had way over 300 ppl on the list!
I was #305 on the list but at night many got stroke out while checking presence. Whatever, they made it a hell of event.
Starting with free Burritos, free Concert, free Drinks, over to free Pizza and hot drinks during the night check. They gave away Nike branded Camping Chairs,Umbrellas, Socks, Blankets, Mugs....everything you need for a camp out.
They had camp out TV (Netflix'n chill) and seriously -I'm not kidding- they had two girls giving the waiting ppl a massage(...no happy end). In the morning we had a morning stretch out followed by breakfast!
AND they raffled one F&F Master of Air for all the customers(they'd put a ticket in a random Box).
That's the good part - the bad part:
I didn't got a shoe!.....in my size. I didn't know how many pairs they got but I guess around 220-250 pairs? (Solebox in Berlin around 30) - so it was really something special that they got THAT many pairs. Whatever, first Size sold out 11.5 (the one I was aiming for) followed by 12.
At that time I decided that I don't buy a random size and should go home....but I'm a weak mf so I stayed and bought one. I'll try a size swap but I know chances are low - 80% of the kickz got into re-sellers hands.
I mean I'd know my chances are low, and I wasn't stoked for the Master at first, but with every hour passing by the Master grow on me. And given that Overkill really made an awesome Camp, I kinda feel guilty talking bad about them for not checking the List more often(or even constantly). BUT I'm kinda salty and pissed of, cause before me there where easy 100 Reseller Kids with no connection to Air Max whatsoever. And they weren't to be seen the whole night.While many Sneakerlovers stayed the whole night, or slept in there nearby car, this fu#kheads came early Friday, wrote there Name on the list chilled at home, came back for the afternoon check, chilled at home, came back for the night check, slept at home - came back 1hour before store opening and bought the shoe. While waiting to actually buy the shoe, all they talked about was how many money they'll make today....Seriously, next time I'll punch them in there face, give them the retail price and take my size!
