What's the word on a restock?

Just keep following this thread and the sneaker blogs and follow up on all leads no matter how ridiculous they may sound. Everything seems speculative right now but in the following weeks some solid information should surface. Like its been mentioned, stay away from resellers if your patience allows.

Also throughout the following week of a release the NT community tends to put up links of retailers who may have a random size pop up here and there. Just trust that your patience will lead to these being had at retail.
 
Hope this restock is talk is true.  Already sold 18 of the 24 pairs I had and have another 6 coming from Eastbay/JJ/DSG/NBAstore/NDC (would of had an additional 5 if it weren't for FNL

Just wanted to thank you all for beasting over these and making Pure Plats easy to obtain.

What GR Lebron X hasn't been easy to obtain

GR means nothing, :lol:.

If the shoe is nice, its going to move regardless.

When I can walk into a store an hour after they open and grab my size, I consider that easy.

Especially when they sold out instantly on NDC.
 
told yall these would be an easy cop...stop paying resellers! Jordan Brand is doing the right thing by mass producing many of the last Js that have come out because they are killing the resellers....dont buy off them, Tweet NIKE to store locate a pair for you or wait for a restock. CALL AROUND do your homework, time to kill these reseller scums
great post !! tried every angle around danbury, ct. and came up short. wont pay these resellers. on to the next.
 
$300 cash outta the ATM is what he wanted to give me. Honestly I didn't wanna sell them. Back when the Concord's released I had someone offer me $600 for my pair and didn't sell them.
I did it sell it for $300. The dude was like man sell me one of your pairs. I said I don't sell none of kicks. He was like I'll pay you whatever for it. 300 bucks and he said. After the deal he said and I quote, "you save my life bro, I gotta have these." I'm sure I could've gotten more for them from him but didn't wanna be a prick taking advantage. He was determine to leave with a pair. Felt bad cause he was walkin back and forth following me cause he wanted a pair. I had my two pairs locked down for myself.
All good man you dont have to justify. Just say you came up. Nuthin wrong with that. Aint gotta feel sorry for anyone. If it was my homie tho Id give it at retail. Ive had homies give me retail prices on limited release SB's and J's after waiting in line. So I return the favor.
 
I hope people don't get impatient and pay over 200 for these. Especially with another half million pair restock coming on June 1st.

Indeed. As much as restocks give people another chance to get the shoes, it also gives resellers an opportunity to pad their inventory. A restock may hurt a reseller by driving down the price during the release window but once the shoe is sold out and no longer circulating at retail the resell price will continue to climb per demand.

I can only imagine if their wasn't a restock they just sold all the shoes instead of keeping them

 They was out at Roosevelt Field Mall HARD bringing there kids/brothers/sisters out here just to get those extra pairs most of the being 10-14 years old. On top of that they were out 2 nights in a row (one for tickets and one on RD)

Hit the stores around 1PM and made it back home with 3 pairs. Size 11 and 13's.

Easy cop, could have gotten as many pairs as I wanted if I would have left earlier.

These shoes are ugly *** hell.
 
glad most got a chance to pick up for retail. Everyone go out and enjoy the weekend.

for those that missed, keep your head up, good things come do those who wait.
