[Bend_The_Knee]

damn...so ANOTHER BF release? geez nike. smh

Here i was thinking that Dec. 1st, i was going to wake up, head to FL, purchase nsrls in a size 10 and go home.


Now i have to wake up to go to FL and deal with this BF crap. Do they not know how insand that day is in NY!?!


What i'm going to do is check my local mom n pop stores and see how much to get them early.

 

[dwoodactennis]

Damn good call, didn't even notice that haha

I'm used to seeing Chalmers in his Spalding's 

 

[illmatic]

I have no HOH or NT in my city but the Anthracites were sitting and still maybe sitting in one of my regular old footlocker!

That's what I mean. Dunno where these folks live talking about Anthracites were an instant sellout. There were FSRs chilling on shelves well into the summer months and they dropped in early spring

[Remy LeBeau]

I'm just gonna wait on the NSRL's unless I miss out on the 6's

 

[lynchpin33]

Just NDC doing a black friday release on NSRL's or across the board???

 

[thapointguy]

Footlocker is 28th too

 

[1Cn9wL8dg3]

Are 6meridians still 11/29?

 

[richhomieflan]

instincts > datas imo

 

[Magic33]

I wonder if NSRL's are online only

Not every area is the same

They weren't HOH exclusive, but they did sell out in a week at a couple of stores I go to.

Probably in select stores. But it will be mainly online.

Why is Black Friday a thing? It even sounds horrible.


 

 

[kimterran]

I'm pretty sure I saw these on display on my local HOH earlier

 

[spiderjericho]

Not every area is the same

They weren't HOH exclusive, but they did sell out in a week at a couple of stores I go to.

Pretty much anecdotal accounts. Unless someone had stock reports from FTL and Co + NT and other small shops from March to the summer months, no ones comments are going to be fact.

In my area, those shoes were gone. Obviously, I can't speak on other cities.

Anyways, back to the 12s. I'm Disappointed Nike is releasing the NRSLs a week early. They got Foams, SBs, Jordans and now Lebrons dropping on Black Friday. They trying to make a killing.

1. 
   "The day after Thanksgiving is the unofficial start of the holiday season. And for retailers, that means big bucks. It's that increase in revenues – and for most retailers the first time to turn a profit for the year – that got Black Friday  its name."
2. 
   
   
   
   
    

 

[spiderjericho]

Yup, it's the day a lot of companies get out of the red and into the Black.

But Nike just increasing the number of holidays to drop major releases across all of their lines. BHM, ASG, Black Friday and the day after X-Mas (there's probably a few I forgot).

 

[tigo0240]

It was more of a rhetorical question. I just find the whole idea unpleasant. I've never gone shopping (other than online) on "Black Friday."

 

[barbarianbob]

I'm pretty sure I saw these on display on my local HOH earlier

Probably one of the stores that held on to their defective pairs

 

[bluntobject50]

Man I was wondering if those XIIs on SA were the Instincts but was thrown off my the mobile site acting up as well as it saying turq. I should have just copped instead of over-thinking it.

 

[1Cn9wL8dg3]

 
instincts > datas imo

chill

 

[richhomieflan]

 
chill

i'm torn between the 2 lol that posite just looks so dope.

 

[tigo0240]

They're all going to sit, and everyone is going to feast.

 

[norwaydre]

Honestly the black, accented with the bright colors on the datas > cloaky eggdump purple on the instincts

 

[paradism]

Man the general release of this shoe is god awful, besides the impending Datas and Instincts. But holy **** Nike can you make a conservative color way drop for once this century? ID all the way.

Regardless, judging from Lebron's twitter account, he really enjoys playing at the DC arena. Which I think is kinda hilarious because he can opt out and go there. And cut off KD. And become President of the United States. Maybe then I'll like his sig model general releases.
