For Sure! I have Android but still with iPhone I have DND on so I will still get notifications but my phone wont make a noise if Im sleep. I only have it so certain people can reach me while in DND as well. 
 
Did the grey's release everywhere? Kind of tempted to do a search now.

I'm going to have to keep an eye out on the All-Red pair, as well. lol.

So I go to the mall about 45 minutes early to try to cop the reds. Asked the guy at the store what time they are opening he is 10:00 so we go to the food court a grab some breakfast come back 10 minutes before they open and sit on a nearby bench. Nobody is really lined up so we are thinking this is going to be an easy cop. I'm thinking I can cop a few size runs hook up a few people on here and flip the rest. At 9:58 another guy shows up and tries to go in but they tell him to wait until 10, then 2 more guys that work at the footlocker across the hall show up. I live in a city where a shoe like the cruz wouldnt generate much hype so I'm thinking buying multiples is no big deal (they only rock Jordans). So the guy opens the doors and all 4 of us go to the cruz section a worker asked me what size I need. I tell him 15 but if you don't have it I will take my one in each size 9 - 13, he looks at me like I am crazy and asks me if I'm serious and I'm like run it. He takes the sizes for the other 3 people as well. One of them grabs a pair off the wall and my friend grabs the other. As the worker starts walking to the stock room and tells another employee what he wants they huddle up and have a brief conversation, then he turns around and tells us they only have two pair. At thbis point I'm thinking bs, but I'm like well let me get both pair. Now there are 2 or 3 employees helping us and they some how bumped me and gave the priority to the people who actually handed the shoe to an employee instead of me even tho I asked for the shoe first. So my homeboy is waiting for him to come back with an 11 and the other guy is waiting for a size 9. Meanwhile they have a new employe walking out of the stock room every 30 seconds. They must of had 25 workers. They go into the back to look for the other shoe and keep coming back out talking about they can't find the other shoe. This goes on for like 30 minutes. Meanwhile they put the 2 pairs that we gave them back on the wall. Which makes no sense whatsoever. If there are only 2 pairs and and there are 2 people in the store willing to buy those 2 pairs you would think they would take them to the register until they find the other shoe so we can check out and leave, not put them back on the wall so someone else can come in the store and ask for them. Finally one of the 10 assitant managers comes to us and says we can't find the shoe now come back later and we will take care of you. We will remember your face. So I look at my boy like here comes the shenanigans. I said instead of us coming back at a random time hoping you and your 30 employees can find the misplaced shoe, how bout you take down our information and call us when you locate the missing shoe. So we give them our info hung around for another 20 minutes or so then left. They told us they are going to have a grand opening on the 12th of December where they are going to release some retros that released in the last few months. When we left the store we went across the way to footlocker, and kept an eye on the store to see if they would sell them to anybody else. A few people picked them up and asked for a pair but got shot down. Eventually they took them off the wall. Wasted my morning dealing with those idiots. I highly doubt we will get that phone call.

They did that to build hype.

Reds have been canned and will not see a RD.
 
Maybe they waitin til they grand opening to release all the Reds they have. Only assumption I have. If they canned, why does the store have them??....

What size were displays mir101?

My guess would be personal stock since the picture looked staged to begin with.

Sounds like they got them early but realized they couldn't sell them yet?  They could have just told you they were put out by accident and that a release date will be coming for them.
