why would they purposely try to bring big foot ppl and tell the smaller sizes that there will be no restock if they weren't mainly bigger sizes? that doesn't make any sense. they aren't lying lol you just wish they were.
 
I got shipping confirmation from my restock yesterday at nearly midnight of the Barons . They will be here tomorrow. An overnight ship for free thanks to them using On Trac. I love getting shoes on their website.
 
it doesn't matter what sizes are restocking really, the bots and resellers are gonna take them and try to flip them the same day.....even if it's like a size 19.
 
Can someone explain why they would only have sizes 15 and up? That doesnt make sense to me.
 
Maybe Nike and eastbay are experimenting and might start carrying the huge sizes on eastbay if this goes well? who knows. Don't most retros usually stop at like 14 these days?

I hope this would be closer to the case boss, that way Big Men can start getting the fresh kicks too. If this is the case Big Men better represent on this restock to give them something positive to discuss in the following Monday morning meeting when the numbers sold are brought up.

Nope lol, resellers are out and about. It'll be even harder to cop
 
Out of curiosity: for those that are 15+ mens shoe size, how tall are you?

As long as they are sold the companies can gauge sales, I don't think the company cares how they moved.

As a former Nike International Csv, Nike will send us the left over stocks in their Dc and provide us with heavily discounted rates for broken size and big men sizes that are left overs from the bulk orders of their customers. Customer orders usually from size 7 to 13 ) and the quantity per style-color. This is why you have theses restocks so to speak. They are not new production but just left overs fm the original production run for these styles. Releases are a different story as we usually receive the upcoming season shoes, shirts and BSSA's from Nike. Wish this was an entirely retro releases but it may not be the case:nerd:

Man thanks, really appreciate the info. Question though, if the Release days runs in store and online are normally stocked to only size 13, where do these larger sizes come from and when are they produced and why aren't they sold online the day of release for the Big Feet dudes.
 
This is what some nike/jordan brand people told me today….

They do this when Nike has a bad year….  Last year Nike sold under their goal for alot of shoes.

Lebrons and Kobe's really didn't sell good for a couple reasons….

Kobe was hurt last year which really killed the promoting of his shoes… on n off the court (so they say)

and They say Lebron was claiming his new shoes were hurting his feet so, he stuck to the old Styles and didn't wear the new one Nike made.. which killed shoe sales...

so the restock is like Nike giving back to all the chain stores for the bad year….   SO ThEY SAY. 

basically rumors.. not sure how true Factually that is…..

I highly doubt that. In fact, I'm almost certain that last year was Nike's biggest year ever in terms of sales/revenue. Also, the "rare" sizes only thing would make no sense if this was the case.

I don't believe that. The Lebron XI is the best selling shoe out of the Lebron line.
 
Yea man Lebron and KD killed it last year. Straight killed it. Plus these are Jordans, what's Lebron and Kobe have to so with JB SALES
 
I just want to know for normal RD ON THE J's , where does the Big Man buy his shoe if it's not online. This picture
View media item 919969
This picture above clearly shows you can buy up to size 18, I haven't noticed that before on the retros because I click 12, but if they release in 15-18 on RD, and we all know the online sites sale out and retail storefront joints stop @ size 13, if these aren't "new" production but leftover rather, where might they be leftover from? I guess NIKE/JB PRODUCES more than their customers( online retailers) order, so here we have the leftover for restock?
