i might be missing something but i don't see any sizes repeated for any of the stores on that list

meaning they're only getting 1 size run? nah that can't be right

seems more like those are the sizes they will be getting, not their inventory

This speaks to Footlocker (not Action) size allocation....and yeah you're right FA23 (NYC) last year got around 400-600 pairs on the SBB restock. Even the UNCs (which they received only part of its shipment for release day) it had around 112 pairs (after employee attrition).

WORD??? INTERESTING.. HAD NO IDEA FA23 (NYC) GETS THAT MUCH STOCK.. THAT SOUNDS LIKE WHEN THEY USED TO BE FA ON THE CORNER ON 34TH. MIGHT JUST GO THERE IF NOTHING ELSE TURNS UP; JUST HOPING THEYRE NOT SHADY CITY.
 
My 2 cents...

I called my local stores , Colorado Springs(4 total:FNL ,FLx2,champs) all are getting these but in only a few size runs. The last 1 release any of these stores got were the Lasers and my friend at FL said they got more of those compared to these. Most of the Denver metro stores are getting these but also in only a few size runs compared to only 3 stores in the entire state that got the Chicagos last year.

1s "seem" to still be a niche market in Colorado so with some leg work locally I feel like there is a better chance to get a pair compared to any '13 release or Chicagos. Elsewhere I am sure that's not the case.

isn't this how all AJ1 threads be? Goes from easy cop, to easy if you do some homework, to not easy even if you do some homework, to hard even if you do homework, to oh ****, how am i going to get these shoes, to here's $350 reseller, please don't flake on me?

Releases like this is why I pretty much stopped copping Jordans.

I'm over it.
 
If lots of stores àre getting these online stock should be in abundance. I'm excited to see if I can score a pair or not
 
Come this weekend and Monday. Its go time for me. Must secure at least one pair. If any spots do fcfs im showing up that night. Camp chair and all. Havent wanted a release this badly since the bred 11 release. Refuse to come up empty handed.

Sidenote: Might have to rob someone Robin Hood style...steal from the reseller and give to me, myself, and I [emoji]129299[/emoji] jk
 
Staying 2 hrs away from a major city i gotta go online for everything i want so I'm try jj first. Snkrs next. Fnl Then ftl and family sites. Should be able to come out with 1 sz 12 lol or maybe not. Really anxious for this release haven't been this confused about how things will go in a while

Seems as though the two different shades of red between the '13 and '16 models is a hot topic of debate.

Those of you who keep thinking the 2013 are closer to the originals from '85 when it comes to the shade of red are sadly mistaken. OG's from '85 have the deeper shade of red that is exactly like the ones dropping in two weeks. That's why they're called remasters.

In my humble and GROSSLY INCORRECT opinion the '13s are overpriced, overrated, overhyped, and overbright on the red when you compare them to the OGs and the '16s. People need to stop claiming that the red on the '13s is closer to the OG than the '16s because that's not the case. Now the tumbled leather on the swoosh of the '16s, that's another story. The tumbled leather's beauty on the Bred 1s will be in the eye of the beholder.

Corrected. Educate yourself before opining like an expert. They are not overrated at all. '13s get bashed all the time. Just look around in this thread...it happens the most. People used to think of them as the standard bearers of their time until remastering began...or here let someone's hard work open your eyes   Overpriced? We don't even know the resell on '16s. WTF is overbright? As for the tumbled leather. What beauty? You think the most prized hides for their beauty are cratered like a pimple faced teenager? Banneds are a good quality leather that happens to be tumbled. The OGs were quality leather too...see any tumbling?

Not all. Sometimes threads go from rough kop/should I pay double to secure a pair TO wow damn easy kop. Usually don't hear back from those who over paid though. But, always hear back from those who underpaid on resale.

Yeah they get decent numbers (and will be hitting them up for a raffle ticket - cause I'm assuming they will raffle these) even the last restock of NYC 1s they got a couple of hundred pairs. If it's FCFS yes the resell crews will run through but they typically are orderly and they have been known to do bands if it looks like it will get out of hand -- no random rollcall/lists which some of the boutiques shops will do and part of much of the shenanigans.
 
I think Chicagos (out of the Shadows/royals/black toes/black and reds) were the only pair i was actually able to pay retell on. All others were pre-orders or resell.

Not ashamed. Don't have time to do all the work, fortunately.
 
Employee price or bust for me, it's gonna be another early morning [emoji]128064[/emoji]

Tell me holy one...do you think '13 Bred 1s should be priced at $600-800 for a DS pair, based on the materials used and the quality? You ever put a pair of '13s on your feet, walked around in Disneyland for an entire day or laced em up on the court? Rhetorical questions.

And WTflyingF does resell on the '16s have to do with the '13s being overpriced? If resell on the '16s end up being $300-400, those too will be overpriced. Still doesn't change my opinion that $600-800 for DS '13 pairs or $400-500 for used '13 pairs is flat out ridiculous for a pair that isn't even close to the quality of $400 Pinnacle 1s.

Secondly, you obviously missed what I meant when I stated that one's opinion regarding the tumbled leather on the '16s is to each his own, considering that many people on this thread have claimed they don't like the tumbled leather because the '85s didn't have it. Ever heard of the saying, "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder?" Or should I define that for you smart guy?

Baroque Brown Pinnacle 1s have better leather quality than both the '11 and '16 Banned 1s as well as some OG pairs from '88-'98, all of which I owned, rocked, and wore til they crumbled to pieces. Are the Pinnacle 1's tumbled? No, they're not. Do I think tumbled leather is the best quality leather out there? No it's not, because I never said that. Your reading comprehension skills need some work.

Don't come at me trying to sound smart when first off, you don't have the slightest clue what I was even saying on the above post.

And if you've never worn a pair of OG Jordans, casually or on court for hoops, and I'm talkin OG's from the 80s or '90-'97, then you should sit yourself down on a stool and quit like Delahoya because I've been around these kicks long enough to have considerable expertise on the Air Jordan line.

The 2013 Bred 1s as the "standard?" LOL

The 2013 Bred 1s as the most top notch Bred 1 of its time, even better than past Bred 1s including the 2011 Banned? Really bro? Or maybe you're just suffering from hype disease just like thousands of others around the world. Yeah that's probably it.

And oh, before I forget, maybe you should comment on MJO23DAN's video above on youtube and ask him if he thinks the 2013s are overpriced at $600-800 and if they're slightly, just slightly , overrated based on quality and materials used.

After all, if you didn't catch it, he ranked the 2013's in LAST PLACE when compared to the '85s, '94, 2011, and 2001. So much for the '13 being "the standard."

I have walked in a pair of '13s on a hot day. Back then all they did was remind me of how terrible the DMPs had been. After breaking them in they did soften up just like the OGs used to. Have you broken in a pair of '13s? You just seem butthurt that you couldn't get your hands on a pair when the '13s dropped? They weren't always $600-800. They were once almost half that. The '11 BC3 were sitting on shelves at my local FTL and now they go for $400+. People absolutely hate their quality. Retro prices are basic Supply and Demand. Econ 101 really. The value and nostalgia has been well established. Your opinion is your opinion I am not asking you to change it...only to inform it a little better. 

You haven't touched a pair of '16s and we don't know the resell. If '16s end up taking on a much higher resell with a marginally better quality then they end up being most overpriced BRED not the '13s. See why the WTflyingF it matters? Its just a pre-mature opinion to call '13s over-priced as compared to '16s is all I was pointing out. They will likely end up being better in quality than '13s in most ways. But some have pointed out flaws in the quality of '16s as well. 

Sure people have their opinion about the tumbled leather. But, your post seems to imply that '13s are not worth their price based on in part quality? Based on the 4 pairs shown in the video '13s are the cheapest with the cheapest quality leather . So their price seems in line? Part of reading comprehension is ascertaining implied meaning because too often people tend to conceal their ignorance with words. So, then define for me over-priced or any other words like overrated or overhyped that you use so casually without proof? You love to call me a smart guy...but can't help but slip in smart *** comments at every opportunity?

In your entire essay you didn't once address my counter-argument to your original argument about the color of the '13s versus '16s. Just some BS about disneyland and being realer than real since you've been around for a long time? As another member pointed out your album of pictures is grossly flawed when comparing colors based on different lighting conditions etc. I put a video that is easily searchable on YouTube to illustrate my point. How did you miss that OG? You think you are the only one around. I have done enough in Js and tested them in all important conditions. Everything from playing ball to walking on the Great Wall to pounding chicks.
