Haven't seen a release this bad in a long time.

Finishline is the way to go.

I woke up at 8:05, said fuck it why not, tried at NDC. Nothing.

Went to FNL, loaded the mobile link in firefox and I got through 15 minutes or so later. I probably got lucky, but so far FNL has been there for me. They should no longer be the last resort for me. Think incognito mode plays a role too, loaded the link that way, no clue though. Some guys might have a trick to it as well.

Not too late for online?

After the Concords, I'm just trying online unless raffles. I might run to the store to see if I can get the military disco.

Trying my luck online right now. One website will drop them at a random time so I'll have to camp my computer. My boy has a raffle ticket from another store, he got a pair from FL so if he wins the raffle, he'll give it to me. It's not so bad though, I won the raffle for the Carmine 1s so I'm not too salty.

Eventually got through on both.
 
Canada doesn't have FTL and Co or FNL?

I know about Livestock.

I struck out on NDC twice but FNL and FTL and Co came through. So happy this wasn't another Concord Low release. Still salty about that one.

Tried to get carmines for a friend and got cart jacked. Site went down in the middle of checkout and when it came back cart was empty.

Foot Locker and Champs are the main ones. There's Livestock and Capsule in downtown Toronto plus a bunch of other smaller stores. No Finishline in Canada. Couldn't get through on US websites either.

They don't have Canadian websites? Just curious?

Like in Europe hey have FTL and NDC. And then there are the smaller boutiques like kickz, SH, SNS, End, etc.

I set my alarm for 4:49 AM. Hit the snooze button (it buzzes every 10 minutes). So I heard the alarm go off at 4:59 AM and I fell out of bed and got on my computer. Right when Nike released the link.

Clicked and bodied the picture captcha. Used my $50 gift card that Nike sent me for being a 'loyal customer' ... and boom! Back to sleep.

They have websites but they're all selling them in-store first before they put up whatever pairs that didn't get sold online. Shit sucks up here. My local HoH got 110 pairs and there was 200+ people lined up. There was about 60+ people lined up at Champs and they got 40 pairs. What's worse is a lot of those people lined up were resellers, some guy was going up and down the line after they handed out tickets trying to sell 5 tickets to people that didn't get them.

You lucky bastard!
 
No Carmines for me sadly, but to be honest though, my interest in them waned, so these more than made up for them:


Pigalle x Nike Air Force 1 Collection


Maison Martin Margiela x Converse Jack Purcell Low in white/biking red. These are actually hand painted in white paint and as the coat chips off, it reveals the leather upper.

Nike AIr Minot!! These were my favorite sneakers in high school! Saw a pair on ebay in my size and I had to grab them. Pretty good shape for a 17 year old shoe.

I am so thirsty for the Lance Mountain x Nike SB x Jordan 1s that come out this weekend. Dopest shoe that's come alone in a while IMO. I can barely afford it with my unpaid internship but I NEED THEM

I really like those Nike SB x AJ1 but I wish both shoes were the same color.

I realize that defeats the purpose of the collab though.

Same here. They're dope but I can't pull off mismatched shoes.

Also I'm not really interested but I guess I've got a guaranteed pair of the White/Red AJ2. I don't have any 2's so I guess if I'm going to own a pair this would be a pretty good colorway.
 
Only one retailer here had the Nike SB x AJ1 but they were raffled off a few days ago. Tried SNS, but got cart sniped as I went to checkout. Wouldn't be the first time. :(
 
This does not bode well for me getting those Infared 11s next week.

There's a lot of stuff dropping next week. It's going to be insane. I'm hearing raffles locally. Two 6s, a 11 and WTKD.

Was able to get the white AJ X SB online. I really wanted the blacks. But oh well. Also got the 2s. Probably going to return them.

Surprisingly enough, I am not interested in the WTKD. I say surprisingly because I have 3 colorways of the KD 6 shoe already. I am really after those 11s though. I got the blk/wht 11 lows earlier this year off the Nike site, so going to hope that luck strikes again. If not, I will be hitting some resellers immediately.

I was planning on getting the Free OG 14 Tokyos tomorrow

Nike changed the launch date to Saturday, so I just have to hope not many want them. I am definitely getting the AJ 11s Infrareds from somewhere on Saturday, hopefully Nike.com, but we will see.
 
I'll be trying for the WTKDs on Saturday.

Hopefully I don't snooze past my alarm like last Saturday morning. I'm hoping most of the people are trying to get all the Jordans during the initial rush.

Will mostly be trying on my phone this time around versus my laptop.

I really like the cigar 6, but I don't think I can afford them. Not like I'd have much of a chance at them anyways (I tried for the RSVP today and failed)

Success with the Infrareds and the Tokyo OGs from the Nike site. Total luck, I know.

Footlocker has the most useless site in the history of commerce.

Edit - I already cancelled the Tokyo OG order. I couldn't justify the expense.

I had the Infrareds in my cart, then I got sniped. D:

I too had them in my cart, kept erroring on me when I tried to put in the security code for my credit card, then they said I took too long checking out.


POS Nikestore.


Also, I am looking for any good deadstock jordans sizes 9.5-10.5 for my groomsmen. PM me if you have anything!

Holy crap. I just got the WTKDs as well. I had a change of heart. Figured I might as well get my 5th KDs of the year.

The Nike site is getting hammered, so not many orders are going through. Just have to wait and wait and wait and refresh a bunch of times.
 
No luck on WTKDs as if the site wasn't timing out, the verifications were timing out too. And if it didn't time out, I was refreshing & waiting my turn like crazy.

I should take this as a sign to stop buying anymore shoes.

If anyone is looking for the Infra XI's in a 9.5 hit me up. I'll let them go for retail + ship, barring some miracle that this asshole from eBay actually pays me for them.
