anybody have info on restocks?

I would try my luck at the usual FNL restock on wed mornings between 5am-8am (pacific time for me). Not really a restock I think it's more the cancelled orders being put back up for sale

I really tried to get these. Struck out on all fronts. I'm hoping that there is a restock soon, and that I'm home at my computer when it happens. It seems that when Nike/JB do a decent job at retroing a shoe they do a horrible job at releasing it. The banneds were a walk in the park compared to these. The first day the banneds released at Citadel in California they had almost 130 pairs. I was number 99 and still got my size 12 and that was considered a "tough release." I already have the 2001s. If no restock happens, oh well.

Finally got around to scoping out my pair today and SMH at the flaws on my pair. Definitely feel lucky even have a pair but man. In this pic the leather looks to have been cut by the sharp ends of the lock that holds the extra set of laces connected to the shoe.

Here is a glue stain and some creasing over it where it looks like the glue was being rubbed off but couldn't get it off and the creasing around the swoosh is heavy but it's leather so that's to be expected.

All in all, happy I have a pair. Searching for a 2nd to keep on ice but don't want to pay rape....yet.

Reminds me of the Banned release. Tons of flaws on dozens of pairs. Bad creasing, horrible stitching, inconsistent leather dye.

I can't believe I just went through 1200+ posts.
Anyway,here's a definition of a hypebeast you guys.

that's more of an '05-06 hypebeast (or so, i hope. since nobody wears full zip all over-print hoodies anymore)

 

[anthracite8s]

lmao zipped up hoody and khakis

 

[trix213]

I'm heading to Barcelona in a couple days, anyone know if they'll have any? Still want these baaaad in a 8.5

 

[jurrasikjakee]

PLEASE BE A RE STOCK. i didnt see alot of people with them in my area. and ebay got them for $300-$500???

 

[anthracite8s]

Everyone here hates resellers but if you check out the buy/sell forum...there are a good amount of them.

Multiple listings for those Barkleyposites that came out today for $400+.

lol this just boggles my mind. where do these cats get the money to spend on those ugly *** pieces of ****...

 they will go out of style and lose hype in a month the new style colorways of shoes are utter ********.

For those of you who got your pairs in hand, what are the production dates on them. Trying to double check what caused this release to be different from what everyone thought it would be like. Chinese factories during Chinese New Year celebration and the shipping delays to retailers. The full or rest of the inventory stock of pairs probably either still in the factories or they are on their way here to the U.S.

 

[ged sparton]

Was gonna cop these online but they sold out in mins..even before the Barkley Rayguns!

dont work anymore

 

[eastbayrep]

Anyone know why Eastbay's orders were backordered? 

Makes me feel that there is a small restock coming if it really is because of shipments being delayed cuz of Chinese New Year

We are awaiting our shipment from our manufacturers. Once we receive the shipment, we will ship out the order.

I have my friend from London going to check out Nike town and foot patrol across the pond. She said shed let me know tomorrow if they're still in stock. I wonder how quick they sold over there

Foot Patrol had a few pairs, no half sizes.

NikeTown had a decent number left as of 5pm yesterday.


Foot Locker Oxford St was an instant sellout.
