Air Jordan 11Lab4 Thread - Blue Up Next?

 
Yeah Nike stores are told to send the unclaimed pairs back, but most of them have been allowing phone orders for unclaimed pairs the following Monday.  That's how my boy got his Champagne's and Cigars
Yeah-that's how I got my Cigars.  But that was before all the NT stores went to the new drawing system.  The NTs that did the pilot program for the new drawing system for the C&C release were instructed to return their unclaimed pairs to Nike.  The others, NT Dallas, NTSM, NTLV, etc.  were able to sell off their unclaimed C&Cs.  Example:  NTLV's first "online drawing" release was the Shattered Backboards.  They did not sell out and had unclaimed pairs. Per 2 different reps when I called, on 2 different days; NTLV Reps:"Yes, we had unclaimed pairs but can't sell them to you.  We had to ship them back to Nike"  Me: "Booooooo!"

is it the pilot raffles that have to return their pairs only though?
i.e. ntny
c n c , sold unclaimed pairs. phone orders after 48 hours
shattered 1 , tickets like c n c 7 . unclaimed pairs weren't sold after though

i was confused as to why
 
Bring on the blue pair

I wasn't too interested in these but I'd like to see some pics of everybody's pair and what not just to see what they look like . Did all the other pics do them justice or are they just ugly lol?
 
Cigars and Champagnes sat because Nike at those stores had not done the online raffle system yet which makes it mandatory for the stores to send their stock back to Nike. The stores will not break policy that have done the online raffle.
 
seems like people getting tired of paying 250 for jays.... not every retro can justify the price tag...they better not never raise the lab price anymore or this series will crash

And bordeaux next week also contributes to that
 
Those Bordeaux's don't interest me one bit. These were the shoes on my radar. Even an older lady said they were really nice at Niketown. :lol:
So..these labs transformed you into..cougar bait? LOL. Or maybe these Jordans..look so childlike.. that older ladies at the bingo hall wouldn't mind to wear em to try to feel young again? and be fly? I think it's the latter. And I think the grannies would look better in them than most

It's all good, my friend. I will visit the bingo halls in them. :lol:
 
Sat out the black and red releases, but if the blue pair is coming out I might have to change my tune.

My understanding is those doing the new lottery have to return unclaimed stock....but NTNY hasn't done the new system to date so technically they could sell unclaimed pairs...with SBBs there was a half a dozen 'unclaimed' pairs but they had screwed up on a handful of raffle drawings so they had first dibs with the 'unclaimed' pairs and I was told if there were any pairs still left NTNY would go back to the initial raffle pool and those folks would get a chance for the unclaimed.
 
I swear it appears at times that JB and Nike create concepts that appeal to the "urban hood" and "gangs." Black 11lab4 (Gangsta Disciples), Red 11lab4 (Bloods), Blue (Crips). And I am sure that some will say that many shoes have these colors, but how many are 99% solid one color? Something about these particular shoes.....
 
It does seem at times that Nike has a team of gangbangers designing for them (lol).....but the black patent leather was a no brainier, and don't understand the tonal red while both the black and the blue have accents of white (or does the red also have the white around the air).
