SHOE SIZE MATTERS



​

True...I used to have a dude hook me up at Foot Locker on any Jordan release.

Told me that they usually had A LOT of size 11's. Size 10 and 12 were next. Errbody buying J's were either Size 13+ or Size 9.5 and below. Remember waiting in line and there were like 20 people in front of me and probably 300+ behind me (think it was the Space Jam XI's). No one around me wanted a Size 11.

The store manager would hold a pair for me, but he honestly didn't even have to. Most times, he just told me to show up after 10 AM and find him in the House of Hoops area.

Grown ass “men” still wasting money on those sweatshop sneakers

Nope. Had everything set up, decided to have my Paypal setup as payment method. Jumped on the app 5 minutes before the purchase window, timed it perfectly, then get to the checkout screen and had to enter my credit card information. I guess by the time I did that they were all sold out (in my size).
I was prepared to buy them on the secondary market if I couldn't get them directly but the whole thing turned me off to the extent that I don't even think I'm going to buy them anymore (who am I kidding, I will probably buy them next week).

And they said Jordans were done out here

People just be saying stuff. Some of them sat, but the hyped up releases sold out as usual. All they did recently is make more.

I still buy Js and I got a few hundred pairs of shoes now and I have to hunt for them on occasion, plus I got a homegirl that manages Hibbett's, she'll save me a pair usually. I don't do online for general releases because if they are fukked up you out of luck. At least in store I can lay my eyes on them.

I think people just like paying retailers extra like some weird kind of masochism........because there is no way people are clicking through the process that fast even with one click buying
