    I knew this was coming out.  Something weird is they show the Jordan Jumpman logo.  That didn't come out until the 3.  That's the reason Jordan stayed as he was about ready to leave Nike after 4 years.

    These are every where now.  There was of course Flight Club in the city, a few places on Long Island then I saw a place in Roosevelt Field Mall of all places.

    I don't buy over retail anymore but it's fun to look at.  I also have a bunch I haven't got to wearing yet that I most likely would sell.

    Yea it’s definitely just to look or trade. I won’t pay over retail. Although I will say this place wasn’t too bad. Considering they have to pay rent , tax and security guards ,  they were only 20-30$ more than online only places like stock x. 

    Anyone ready to strike out on the AJ1 OG 85s this morning??

    Those black 1's?  They aren't even what he wore so easy pass. They've done this in the past and I didn't want them either.  $200 is a lot for a 1.  Those were always the cheaper of the retros to make but they are cashing in now because yall keep buying them, lol!

    Stock X is overpriced to begin with, that was an ingenious idea and also ruined the shoe market with everyone buying stuff just to flip.  It made it not fun for me anymore.

    Good luck if you're hunting!

    Only 36k releasing today so there’s no chance. Bots ruined the hunt. Can’t compete with them. I buy retail or under on stock x pretty often but yea, same with concert posters. Resellers ruined the market and took the fun out of it.

    That is a really small run for kicks.  Good luck.

    I actually have some pairs that only 1-200 were made.  Older stuff.  Should be in a museum now, lol.

    Does anyone know if these will be difficult to get at retail?

    Yeah, these exact ones.  I rarely buy new shoes, but this happens to be one that I like and I will buy, if given the chance.  Being that I'm 0 for the century on the SNKRS app, I'm guessing that trend will continue.

    Yes they will be difficult. A lot of hype and they were easily going for over $200 resale

    Damn. Bummer. I wonder what the hype is all about. I like them, but I tend to like “boring” color ways that I thought weren’t as popular. Sounds like another SNKRS swing and miss coming.

    I hope I’m wrong. Sneakers are no fun anymore. Too much stress, too many bots and the SNKRS app is a joke. Good luck

    Haha. Definitely have my share of sneakers I won’t wear, especially anything 15-25 years old! I do buy every sneaker with the intention of wearing but some I just don’t get around to.

    I happen to walk by the FTL on 34th in Manhattan when they were handing out tickets.  I didn't feel like coming back so I didn't bother.

    I'm trying.  Hearing that they're handing out tickets in the post above tells me all I need to know about my chances.  I have no clue what shoes will be high demand vs. not, but I can't figure out why this one seems to be.  Good luck if you're giving it a go. 
    I could have snagged those 3's yesterday when they dropped them, but passed.  Cool shoe though.
