Jordan XII Royalty - November 13, 2021

[allergic2broke]

What was the last shoe?

Obsidian 13s I think lol

 

[mixology]

I’m surprised how quiet this thread is. I don’t remember if I made negative comments on this release lol but I’d be in for a pair.

I’m happy the playoffs are coming out soon so I’m not as disappointed in JB regarding the 12s. These are growing on me so if I can cop for retail I’m in (with white laces of course).

Finishline just sent me EA for these. I'm excited because this was BS free.

 

[pacmagic2002]

^^^^ yopppp

they have a customer in me.
I just wish I could change the location………The one they choose for me is kinda far. There is one that’s closer, but they’re both about 20-25 minutes away.

Ended up gettin FNL EA and snatched em up quick. The 2K points is kinda wack, but it’s nice to have em locked in.. Footsites still don’t seem to be open, and are typically a miss anyway. Hopefully they’ll come through on the few hyped releases they get too..

you get some of your points back when you buy the shoes right??

 

[SolesNGoals99]

No access for me via FNL. i havent ordered anything from them since the alternate Bel-Air 5s that I miraculously won via their online/in-store pickup draw/raffle system. Needless to say my acquired points expired . O well. Hopefully i can start winning some -ish via FNL and be able to spend my money with them

Yeah, it says 10/15 per $1 depending on status.. but it doesn’t leave many extra for discounts, since the new system requires points to reserve.

There doesn’t seem to be a set amount per release either, I guess they base it on the expected demand. The 3s that dropped recently (also $190) were 1500, and these 2000. Someone was saying an employee said the holiday 11s may be 3000+. We shall see..

 

[Magic33]

I guess I got early access at some point today, but I never received a notification. By the time I checked they only had a couple of small sizes.

 

[big atz]

Definitely hit today but it seems like they only reward you if you recently bought something.

 

[JakeL9210]

Wonder if these are lost at sea too since they’re not up for reservation on flx app

 

[toneloc2002]

Reservations open on FLX….

 

[lazybread]

Nvm

 

[countryboi]

Reservations open on FLX….

Thank you sir, I need some toddler size for the baby boy

Either give us a true OG style retro of the taxis or a completely new colorway.
These look half cooked.
Some people would think they are fakes...

 

[afterburner]

It is amazing how JB has basically adopted the style of fakes, probably because you have some fakers running the show right now. While these are nice, the originals are nicer and what everyone really wants. At some point if I'm running Nike, I start asking the question of why aren't we making the most money we would be making right now instead of playing games that have the potential to atrophy my business over time?

So I guess DMP Concord XI’s are in the same category then.

 

[dennistrane]

People are ridiculous. No one will think they are fake. These will be on everyone’s feet. Some of you guys gatekeep too much

 

[GenghisQuan]

Messed around and missed my FNL email and now my size gone. Hope this don’t ruin it in the future

Any of you customizer folks care to guesstimate about how difficult it would be to get a flat black paint to lay atop that gold jumpman tab on the mudguard? I want these if it’s not much in the gig but if I’m gonna train wreck a $200 sneaker then I’m gonna pass altogether.

 

[slaughterx]

Finish Line is pretty wack for not doing a regular raffle for these.

if you didnt get EA you never have a chance and thats lame.

You should pass then.

 

[slaughterx]

Foot Patrol order just shipped. The day I ordered it the conversion rate said $210, but today the charge on my Amex was $245... Wouldn't have ordered at that price honestly, and to make everything worse, JD Sports sent the email, so I still ended up over paying another weak *** Finish Line associated company. I am not happy.

 

[dr damon]

Early access pair came in last nite. Just opened them up. Glad there doesn’t seem to be a lot of hype on these…

Bonus with my favorite colorway
