DSG will probably put on an several FSR in the next couple of days.

Some may say no because it's a Premium sneaker but, just keep an eye out.

They released the Playoff 13's back in the day, so there is hope and it will be an easy grab if so.

alot of people will spend there last on j's. Everyone don't have internet access, maybe where your from but believe it or not they don't, and alot of people have given up trying to cop online.

Copping both in stores and online is hard for me. At 50 years old, I just don't have it in me to get up real early and camp out anymore. Haven't done that since 05 or thereabouts. And, I refuse to pay more than retail or to pay anyone in a store off, so it comes down to the luck of the raffle. I've gotten lucky with some raffles this year but this past week with the 3Ms I struck out, 0 for 3.

And online, my internet connection is pretty slow. My speed is about 5 MBPS. And, I refuse to pay for any bots or hacks that put the shoe in your cart hours before they drop or "dial" your cart entry in for you, so what it boils down to is how much in-demand the shoes are. If demand is relatively lukewarm, like if they are going to sell out in a day, I can cop (which is what happened with the 3M 13s, got it online from Eastbay). But if they are one of those instant sellouts, I have no chance at all. I can sit there trying to enter my order all morning and all I get is "the shoes you want are in other people's carts" messages and stuff like that, until i finally get the "sold out" message.

So since none of my methods work very well, I do both ... make the rounds at the stores and enter raffles, and if that fails try online at 8AM EST. And if both fail, I just chalk it up to the game and move on.

50...props to ya. I'm 30 and I feel old compared to the kids these days...the shoe game definitely isn't the same as it was 10-20 years ago. Back in elementary school, I remember begging my mom to buy me all the J's when they first came out. They were like $70-80 and those were considered soooo expensive haha but I guess I was lucky enough to get a few back ithen. I remember walking into Footlocker as a kid and trying them on like any old pair of Nike's. No such thing as selling out haha, different story today.
 
Just saw these at nikelab and I'm glad I passed because these things are super loud. The next three colorways are cops though.
 
I honestly was never a fan of 13's....I will cop those holograms though. It will be my first and prob my only 13. Feeling old in the game at 32 but still plan to be buried in a fresh pair. lol  Props to the older heads still going strong in the game!
