Nike Air Jordan 4 Retro "White/Cement" - The Aftermath - NO BUYING/SELLING/TRADING

I don't think we know yet.  I'm guessing it won't, though, b/c I think the Foams are limited, while the WC4s are a GR.  This method sucks though, as you don't know until much later in the day whether you've got a pair.  By then you'll have missed out on all other websites if these sell thru quickly.  You'll want to try for something elsewhere simultaneously, and cancel one of the orders if NDC pulls thru.  They really should just do the raffle the day before.  The problem is that would make sense, which would be against Nike's mission statement ;-).

True I feel you that would make sense but I have a flight on the 13th at 830 in the morning so I have about half an hour to cop won't have enough time to wait online for that long so this way would be more convenient for me also I have enough nike cards so I don't have to pay for them out of pocket so that's why I'll probably go just on NDC and see how lucky I get

Makes sense; good luck!  If it's not a raffle, it's going to be tight b/c you'll likely be waiting in line for the better part of that 30 min or more, even if there's plenty of pairs....Let us know how it turns out!
 
@thrilla  Since we're in the struggle together I thought I'd update ya and say I just copped the Carolina foams. Too fire to pass up. Looking like it might be Caros and the WC4s for me with a pass on the black OVOs since they don't have the outsole branding and I already have the whites which I like more.

As for your situation and needing to choose between the foams and the WC4s... I'm gonna have to go with the foams. For me it comes down to how much variety it adds to the collection. I've got plenty of white, black, and red shoes but needed some Carolina blue. Also with all the stupid stuff they've been doing with foams lately, it's nice to see a simple colorway come out. Another thing is the foams are gonna pop way more on feet. The beauty of the WC4 is that it's classic and simple, but in the battle for straight fire I think the foams win out.

Hope that helps you man.

I didn't get the foams, but I went to NDC at release to see what the page is like. Once I entered all my info, it said I could place the order. You're saying placing the order then doesn't confirm it? You still have to wait for later in the day?

My understanding is that they now require you to commit to paying to avoid people winning and then not ultimately buying them.  So you're confirming your order/payment when you enter the draw, however, you still need to wait until later in the day to know whether you won the lottery and they actually completed the order.

incorrect.

todays foams are instant purchase, not a raffle.

This morning's release method wasn't a draw though. I know the draw procedure.
