I see you're in NY, Personally I've no experience of the US site (have read horror stories on Reddit alright) but like I said, any dealings with the Euro end of things I've always found the reps to be cool & know what's up......surely all they need to do is check the style code against a list of upcoming releases.

If it were the kumquat release then surely they'd just have replied with the June 6th date or whatever it was I saw mentioned in here previously instead of saying they'd report back with more info later

It's almost like y'all in here dont want it to be true even though ye cant lay hands on them yourselves at the moment via some of the more select boutiques.

NDC Europe gets quickstrikes all the time when it comes to Dunks & other shoes, cant imagine why this would be any different if they've confirmed they're releasing them.

The other grand slam models may not have released there but these French Opens seem to be ALOT more hyped & doing the rounds on the blogs compared to the previous ones + Agassi teasing them himself could mean a bigger release plan from Nike

Patta is the only Dutch Tier Zero account. Only Germany has two retailers at that level.

My other place is in France, though they aren't in stock yet.

US10 and/or 11.5.

290sqm haven't sent me any cancellation notice yet, so I'm hoping I'm still good. I've got another place just in case they cancel me.

Already got mine shipped.  At least it's Fedex overnight for that 32euro shipping cost.

Firstly, it's doubtful that NDC reps would be able to call up information on such a shoe. I've had TZ shoes in-hand in Foot Patrol before and called up NDC, who have had no idea what I was talking about.

Secondly, the SP's are not QS, but Tier Zero shoes, which NDC do not stock. They are in-store only at NT LDN, and equivalent European stores outside of the select independent accounts.

Lastly, if the FRA's were to be on wider-release, then NDC would already have made it known. As only Patta and 290 currently have them, you can be almost 100% sure that the only other places that they will drop will be the equivalent accounts in London, Berlin, Milan and Paris.

The ONLY reason the FRA's are more hyped is because we've been expecting them for a long time. The other three were all 2013 shoes, whereas these are this year. They should have brought these out first, but that would have been impossible at the time.

I tend to not expect this shoe, or future releases, to necessarily abide by what has happened in the past.  It really seems like things are changing, even when you simply look at the progression of how these SPs have released.  Even with that said, I'll still be willing to pay J0e for a US11 if he can get his hands on one, whether or not I think a state-side release is possible.  I called Mercer and NTNY the day BEFORE the Aussies released at Mercer, and no one knew anything about them, and thus I struck out.

It pained me to see people reselling 10 pairs of Aussies on Instagram when I couldn't seem to grab one for myself.  But for these, I have the original shirt to go with, so I'll try a bit harder, and thanks in advance to anyone willing to help.
 
We'll wait & see I guess.....but if it does turn out that they drop at NDC ya'll gonna be very salty after talkin such big talk

I know this is a Hail Mary but if anyone overseas can pick me up an 8 I'm PayPal ready and will be eternally grateful! I've struck out in every slam and really need that streak to end!!
 
I'm on my way to NT LDN right now to score some Hot Lava for another user. (I've got my Royal/Infra on because I like bringing the place to a grinding halt). Lol. Anyway, I'll see if I can't get one of my boys to see what they can pull up on their system, and then we might have a bit more info in line with what Rice is saying.

Agreed 100%
 
Right so so far, I've got my girl in Holland hitting Patta tomorrow, and I'll get her to drop by 290. I've got my girl in Paris ready to pounce on Colette. That's hopefully three pairs fulfilled. I'll then be ready to order from Colette online for the fourth pair. Then we're waiting on the other TZ spots to announce the drop. I've got a guy in Berlin, who can hit both of their two stores in person, and I can order online.

Providing it all goes to plan, then everyone on my list will be covered.

Then you guys can send me some Pop Tarts, and Tim Tams.

They're due after the Kumquat from what we can gather, but nobody knows for sure yet. The Kumquat are somewhat elusive. There hasn't even been an early run on them yet to my knowledge.
 
In theory it shouldn't be too difficult. I've got multiple shipping addresses, so I can get around the one pair per customer thing. Having guys in other countries who can go directly into stores comes in handy in these situations too.

I can hit Foot Patrol in person too. It's like three minutes away. If I take my Son with me, I can score two pairs from them at a time.
