Jordan Retro 1 OG Royal returns April 1 2017

This 2013 thread funny compared to this one: http://niketalk.com/t/519529/official-air-jordan-i-retro-black-royal-thread-feb-2013

There it was plenty people not worried at all because of the All Stars that also dropped last time, clowning people who got what are now steals for pre-orders, and then the limited nature caught everybody off guard....meanwhile in 2017 we all cautious as ever(maybe too cautious...yeah right...can never be too cautious). Anyway an interesting read for some of you NTers. NT is funny/awesome.

The sneaker game was very different back in 2013 than it is now. People are connected more than ever to this culture, which also allows for many people to overreact and cause others to folllow.

The advantage we have now is the knowledge of the production numbers and we can get a sense of what's limited and what's not. This years royals are for more readily available than the Royals from 2013. Unfortunately, the hype is just the same if not more.
 
I didn't know I had like minded NTers so close to me. If you guys wanna go to the live raffle and meet up send me a PM (not sure if I'm going yet).
Man I honestly think their going to do a raffle in the next couple days. At least after I call corporate they will :rofl:

Wore my Reynolds 1 last Saturday. Ive had this pair since they came out in the early 2000s. I skated in 2001 Breds I picked up at the outlet but the Reynolds 1 was my fav skate shoe of all time. I took a lot of crap for wearing these all red shoes back when they came out. Nowadays all red shoes have all the hype. Who would of thought
O M G !!!! The red bling 1s..those are the most sought after reynolds...man thats awesome!!!!! You won this whole thread and these dudes have no clue lol!!


I had the black pair and brown ones..black n red kircharts were flames also

dumb question, is there any type of location prioritization in these apps or is it a random store it selects. I have 10min HS and I'm really close to a store that I've hit on before for some releases and would rather be able to pick up there rather than drive for 45 mins to pick up...but i will if needed

I'm sure this some prioritization within the 3 shops you selected....i have had times where I won at 1 (of my 3) locations but my pick up location is totally different and wasn't a part of my option.
 
This thread is all the way live....Oh the adrenaline... Each day closer to release get the heart pumping just a little faster... Nothing like [emoji]9757[/emoji][emoji]10084[/emoji]. Love for the ones...

It's pretty lame that the apps make you pay $300 to increase your chances of reserving shoes.
No actually its nice.

If youre a regular customer, 300 isnt alot at all

Plus it helps prevent mogs from bringing their moms, dads, brothers, sisters, aunties, uncles, etc from signing up and having the same shot as you

Agreed. 300 is less than two retros. I'm not platinum but I could be if I bought at footsites more.

I had about every colorway. I worked at a skate shop and got every colorway as they came in lol. These reds along with the white/gum and brown/gum were my favorites for sure. I still got them in storage somewhere. I never skated them. They were for casual use only lol. Kirchart 1s were cool. But the Ellington 1s were definitely my second favorite emericas

Cats fooled into thinking this gonna be an easy cop all around

Gonna be the greatest april fools prank of all time
Or everyone will suddenly say they are "overrated" when there's no challenge in getting them... lol  Just the way it is...  not predicting that it'll go down like that, but there's certainly a possibility with the way things are looking.
