My Steel 10s and Gamma 11s both are bgrades but I dont see any cosmetic imperfections on either pair. These Gamma 11s are miles more comfy than those CDP XIs. Those things felt like cardboard. :smh:

Depends on what ur def of B Grade is..... IMO these are better quality than some I've seen... no visible imperfections and compared to the 05s quality is better ... I haven't gotten any retros from the nike factory store since 06 so idk anymore I'll check the box and tag when I get home

Naw I know the quality of the B Grades is usually really good. I was wondering if they were B grades or regular because if they were regular DS then we won't see it again. NO or Gonzales outlet never get any quality J's and other outlets around the country usually get B grades. With them being B grades it gives me hope for future restocks at our locations.

Oh ok I gotcha. Yeah both of my pair were def b grades. The tag on the box even had "BG" printed behind the name of the shoe.
 
Anybody wore their Kobe 9s yet? I want to Know hows the fit.. TTS? Size up? Size down? Feedback would be highly appreciated..
 
@tone I got a size up and they fit nicely but I have extra room I would say they fit true to size. I think I could fit a 13 which is my actually size, I just been sizing up on the Nike big 3 for the last few years they all seem to run small but these seem TTS. Hope that helps

Preciate it..
 
HOH limit was 1 style per person if I remember. And this was Thursday there was no one out there. So you coulda copped the whole pack and went back through

It was 1 prelude sneaker per person on canal st. So you could get 1 prelude 6 for example and then get back in line for another but only if they have it left. That's why him getting multiple 1s doesn't make sense. Cause those sold by like the 3rd time in depending on your spot in line.

I understand what you are saying because I count like 10 different #1's in the picture. You may be right that he had help because there were Footlocker employees from different stores from throughout the state so maybe someone helped him out. 10 different trips in the store and standing in line to pay for them plus putting them in your vehicle would take a lot of time. Also employees buy and sell shoes more than customers so DBCHOOPS has a legitimate point.

For the most part it seems like they brought in people from out of state to run the different shops, I know the guy checking me out commented on me being a local when they asked to see my ID when I was checking out with my Gumbo League pairs and he was from the East Coast. The people in the customization shops were from all over too girl that rang me up was from somewhere down south but definitely not a Louisiana accent, and the people I picked up from were from the west coast.

I think they do that specifically to try to curb locals from getting backdoor deals on everything. I know that on Thursday when I tried to stop by the HoH while I was waiting I kept on seeing one guy give people in line money, but that was at about noon after all the good stuff was gone (or so the thread said)

I personally know 3 guys that were working in the store during All Star weekend that worked at HOH in Baton Rouge previously but now they are at other stores located throughout the state.
