Official Air Jordan Retro I WHITE/RED/BLK Thread JAN 2013

Called foot action yesterday for NYC and guy told me he only gonna have a few pairs(limited) already know those mom and pop guys gonna go there and buy up all the pairs. I really want this shoe and guess I have to try 34th st HoH, anyone know if they did or will have a raffle ticket crap? Or I can just go there tomorrow and pray I get them?

yeah! Most places here in my area are not having them. Only FNL will get them. Hopefully I can cop a pair. :smokin
 
You're right. I was hoping these round of releases would be similar.
It's disappointing to hear that even the Knicks that are $30 more have questionable quality.

Easily the best GR 1 in almost 10 years... Really glad I doubled on that shoe once they rotted on shelves
 
Just called my local FNL and they aren't gettin them in-store :smh: .. I guess it's online for me, if that fails i'll make a few other local stops.
 
Well looks like i will have my pair sitting in front of footaction (#2 in line). Only about 6 guys here, glad lots of people had no idea of the rsvp this moning.
 
I wouldve bought a pair had the Jumpman not been on the back. That ruins the whole shoe for me.:smh:
 
These are definitely more limited than what has been suggested a few pages back. In so cal, out of quite a few FTl I called, only HoH was getting them. Tried twitter RSVP, failed miserably even though I've had success in the recent past.

I was trying to get 2 pairs, but now I'll be content with one.
 
held these today in person, leather is mad cheap, quite disappointed to be completely honest, so no cop for me :smh:
 
not a lot of stores by me getting these. Looks like its online or bust.
Good luck to all

I meant to say this yesterday, cuz my connect told me...While these ARE a GR, they are one of those low production number GR's, so people be careful. For those of you that think you are going to walk into the mall sometime in the mid-afternoon and cop, you might be disappointed. My connect said to think of the Olympic VII release...numbers are going to be like that...

Same leather as JB has been using on their GR's for quite some time now. Looks/feels EXACTLY like the Fire Red IV's from 2012. If you expected anything different/better than that, you played yourself. This is the state of JB, especially GR's...

These appear to be way more limited that the Oly 7 release.

I can only speak for the Bay Area.

Someone told me that our local HOH got around 20 something pairs...
 
Was gonna pass after seeing them bc they looked like **** but this photo has me on the fence AGAIN
400
That rollup is turrible :x

very turrible
 
Only 1 store (fta) in my mall are getting these. Thank goodness it's fcfs so I'm gonna start camping out 2am just to be on the safe side.
 
Still don't know if I wanna cop these after seeing joe venuto's comparison video.

Will make final judgement tomorrow, after seeing them (and holding them) in person.

I know the color way of these alone will make these a commodity.
 
I also would prefer the tongue to be mesh. However. With the black laces covering them, other people won't notice that much. White mesh is also difficult to maintain ( concord and columbia xi).

Serramonte? If so, that's pretty crazy. Taking my chances with NTSF RSVP today.
