Okay sorry guys thread been pretty hard to keep track of. 

1 quick question. Will I still be able to scoop a pair of MC racers and trainers? 

Or did those sell out already? Thanks guys!

I was told the 1st of July for the racers....then they told me they would received their first shipment the 12th. I received a email that my order shipped yesterday.
 
Dumb question, but what's plastidip? Info on the process(es) involved? just curious... in the meantime i'll be on google
 
If you want to paint the swoosh black, you could try a Molotow paint marker like this guy. I'm thinking about trying it

So RRS charged me my full amount for both pairs and only the 4.5 is shipped I hope that means my pair safe lol

Plastidip is basically spray paint, BUT it can be removed, by peeling it off. It's used a lot by people want to paint their car, rims, etc. but are afraid to mess something up or just want to have it as a temporary color. Never heard of it being used on sneakers.

Ive been wanting to see a pic of red racers with a black swoosh on the outer side. Ever since my volt racers came in last week and I lined them up with my orange and red racers, I have seriously considered painting the swoosh black (on the red pair) to match the color scheme of both the orange and volts

Gotcha, thanks for the info... i've definitely seen it used on rims/fenders car accessories just didn't realize this was the term for it...

I Cant imagine it functioning appropriately on sneakers given the stress/impact/wear/movement of using sneakers to walk around/run in a given day... Would the plastidip even hold up? I guess we'll see once people post up DIY pics..

MC trainer ship next friday

MC racer ship 7/19

Got the same date for my MC Racers (7/19). When the RRS rep said the MC Trainer would ship out "next friday" did she mean this Friday coming up (7/12) or next week's Friday (7/19). In that case why not tell you they both (MC Racer and Trainer) ship 7/19?

Just weird that she was specific about the MC Racer date, but not so much with the Trainer.

Also what is an F1? If the F stands for Flyknit...they're all Flyknits

"MC Lunar"

Well.. here is my convo with RRS today. I understand it was a preorder and I need to be patient, but it has gotten pretty ridiculous.

Ark A.: Hello Tyler. Feel great knowing I can help you today!
Tyler: Hey Ark, I have an order that has 2 backordered items. I was told they would ship July 1st (they didnt) then I was told July 5th (they didnt), then I was told July 9th. Today being the 10th, and I still havent received any shipping info. Can you help with this?
Ark A.: I will be happy to assist with this. One moment please while I lookup the order information.
Ark A.: Thank you for holding. The Nike Flyknit Racer (NIK1505) will indeed ship on 07/22. However, it appears the Mens Nike Flyknit Lunar1+ (NIK1544) is on an extended backorder with no known ship date. There is a rather larger backlog of pending orders.
Tyler: So why keep giving ship dates knowing that it will continue to be pushed back?
Ark A.: The ship dates that are being sent are the purchase order dates established by our buyers. Our systems are designed to email this information, but they are unaware of the number of backlogged orders.
Ark A.: The Nike Flyknit Lunar1+ (NIK1544) has been difficult to obtain as there is extremely high demand, and we are only able to get a few pairs at a time.
Tyler: Should I expect the Lunars to be cancelled since there is no known ship date?
Tyler: And I should probably also expect my Racers to be pushed back as well?
Ark A.: I am confident in the 07/22 ship date. As we will get a large allotment delivered to us, enough to fulfill this order. The Flyknit Lunar1+ (NIK1544) will most likely be canceled, as I have seen several orders for them be canceled during the last few weeks.

So he basically guaranteed my Racers will ship on the 22nd (I'll believe it when it happens...). And said my Lunars will most likely get cancelled (even though I have gotten 3 different ship dates for them).

I don't know what you expect. If they don't have them, they aren't shipping them.


He probably shuffled your order to the bottom of the pile after that conversation.

I expect shipping dates to be met when given, especially the 3rd date. Or to not take so many preorders, leave them pending for almost 2 months and then canceling.
