JORDAN 11 RETRO LOW "COLUMBIA" $175 April 15th 2017

Thx for posting this.I was just about to look to see if you posted this.

I don't like review like this, honestly.

His patent leather talk. So, after I wore my pair so much, the layer of patent leather actually started to peel off. THATS why they didn't make it the same way they did previously.

The cuts on the patent. Yes, they did it on the space jams to give it the OG look, but they were there because they didn't have the technology to make them without it, so it was just there. But now that they do, they don't put it there.

Complaint about the leather............honestly, shoes are meant to be WORN, not held in your hand. The "quality of leather" doesn't really matter when you're actually wearing the shoe. I've never seen anyone come up and look at your shoe and say "oh, the quality of the leather on those isn't good at all". -_- If you put the shoe on and never held them, who the hell would ever know the difference??

The "line on the tongue". They did that so the tongue wouldn't look creased up and odd when you tied your shoe. It bends a little instead of trying to fold like the OG pair when someone had them on. Again, if he put them on, he'd understand.

Appreciate your input. I never had the og's so idk
 
But why did you pick up two pairs? If they aren't to your liking. Should one pair be enough? Lol.

Won two app reservations--FTL & FTA. Didn't want to compromise my account for future releases. So, I bought both pairs to have on record.

When I saw the pictures online they looked good. But after trying them on, I didn't like them at all. Sneakers are comfortable though. Maybe I'll just return one pair. Not entirely sure. Would rather have the Copper foams to be honest.
you know when you go in there there's an option to choose to pass?
 
I bought 4 pairs of Royals and still had a chance to cop.

did you scratch test any?

I picked up my FTL and FTA pair but couldn't pick up my champs pair. How will that play out with future release reservations? I was thinking about buying them from champs regardless since they are sitting but I was bummed I couldn't scoop them
 
There has been plenty of times that i have confirmed and not picked up and still able to hit on the apps that have 10min HS with no problems. Sounds like an urban legend but that's just my opinion and experience. Maybe i'm just lucky.

Good to know. Hopefully when I buy my pair today it cancels out the fact that I didn't claim my pair yesterday but I still have 10 min Hs

lmaooo i don't think that matters. i have not picked up reserved shoes in the past and I hit on Royals on two apps, these XI lows on all three apps.  you think they have some system where they keep track of all their customers and what they purchase and not purchase? cmon now its not that serious. its all random. by your logic, somebody who picks up all their reserved pairs should be getting priority and thats just not happening.

What do you say in the chat?

Just got mine off NDC like 30 min ago. I got straight to the point lol. Just told her there was a sneaker I want to buy and asked if there were any 20% promo codes I could use. She checked and said there weren't any but also said she checked my order history and gave me one lol. Gonna return this FTL pair after the yeezys drop

tried to finesse a code just now and Emera told me her coach said I could have a 10% code, better then nothing I guess
 
People are broke bro. Too much heat releasing every weekend for like the past month and a half. Even weekday releases thrown in here and there
Lucky for me then. I hadn't bought Js since last summer and these were an absolute must for me, so I'm glad whatever has been released recently drained the wallets of most potential competitors, leading to an easy cop. 

Sure, sometimes I want a shoe to sell out lightning so I can feel 'exclusive' for having them. But not this shoe, I just wanted a no risk easy cop, LOL.

Now if Nike could just schedule some more OG colorway AJ1 High Tops before the Barons come out.  Wouldn't hurt if Adidas dropped some Yeezy's first too.

i dunno why but these remind me of that time that one guy was walking on a dusty dirty road in his new shoes and complaining how dirty they got forgot which shoes they were

I had bought some of the flyknit af1. And when Fed ex delivered I think someone swiped off my porch. So I opened a investigation and ended up getting a refund. Since then I haven't gotten any reserves or been able to cop off snkrs. I genuinely believe nike has a black list

Lucky for us, they can't hold us back on NDC
 
Ftl does penalize for not picking up pairs.

The algorithm is set to pick most loyal at x store.

That's why you continue to win at 1 store vs some random store you picked cause it was close or whatever.

If you confirm and don't pick up you're hurting your chances but most people are clueless on the app so you have good chances anyway.

Not a myth. Ask corporate or DM when you're at the store.
 
Same boat. Does NDC give extensions on promo codes if you tell them you didn't find anything you want to buy yet?

I doubt it but it doesn't hurt to ask

Mine expires in August but I went ahead and used my measly 10% on these anyway simply because I had some money in my PayPal balance as well so I came out a lot less
 
They will give you a new code if it's expired or about to. I got 2 codes by saying they were about to expire and when they asked me for the codes I said I'll chat back because I didn't have them in hand and I just wanted to make sure they could. They just gave me 2 codes anyway. Needless to say I never had 2 codes that were about to expire in the first place. Take it for what it's worth if you know what I mean

I see a nice amount of size 10s are being listed on StockX for a few dollars above retail. This is why i didn't buy on release date. Waiting for that one person to drop a size 11.5 or 12 on there for below retail.

what are you guys saying on nike chat to get a promo code?

First time I complained to hell and back about the ****** app and not being able to buy royals or any of the air maxes and they wouldn't budge.

yesterday I told them I was thinking of buying the 11 lows but $175 was steep and asked if there were any codes to help me out. they offered 10% but eventually got 20% when I asked and said I knew people who got 20
