The Official Air Jordan 1 Retro Blk/Red "BANNED" Sept 3 2016

[Bert.]

Not sure why people think Footlocker will have more inventory than Footaction when Footlocker has never been a regular carrier of NA 1's unless it was a HOH location. Less Footlockers will get these than Footactions.

FTL always gets OG 1...

They are bigger stores than FA... You're joking right

View media item 2145429 My boy who works at Footlocker said they only got 24 pairs.

I'd jump on that

Tumbled Royal's just may be next.
Looks just like SBB's. Swap orange premium leather out for red and the black leather used for both is the same.

People keep saying tumbled Royals are next. Why? When was the last time Royals Tumbleds came out? Not impossible just doesnt seem likely.

UA pairs are really really really bridging the gap between with authentic pairs. Heres what you need to look out for...

- Lace bags are not big anymore. On the 2013-14 pairs have the bags have 5 ridge line near the opening. On remastered pairs theres only 4 lines. The UA pairs will be using the old 5 line ridged bags.

- The boxes are better. no more thick cut ribbed cardboard. The brown is lighter and the box, and the placement of the Nike sign and Swoosh text under the box lid isn't in the right place.

- The wings logo TM is slightly higher, and the wings itself is more satin glossed rather than high glossed.

- The texture is not as soft to the touch.

- Box label is exact to the naked eye, however the fonts will be thicker in some areas. Compare to other remastered AJ1 boxes.

- The registered R is back on the Nike Air tongues. The R shouldnt be perfect. It's hard to expalin this without pics however. I'll show that later.

- Paper should be accurate with all AJ1 releases and not thin as tissue. That goes for any retro.

...stay woke

Thanks for the knowledge. Box lid stamp could also tell if authentic and if not present still myabe authentic but have to check through other clues?

Not a tell, a lot of shoes do not have the stamp. It happens

Over the years I've received OG 1 as well as other Retros with no stamp in the box

 

[the rise of taj]

Lol @ Resellers in here trying their hardest to hustle.

 

[jmiahfree]

Yeah. I'm here at Parkway about to call them while I go inside and see what they say over the phone in front of me

Then I'll ask in person after I hang up

Get 'em! lol

Thats exactly what i said. If present good if not look for other signs. I find 3/4 of my pairs will have the stamps. I just wanted to know if box lid stamp is still present on these.

 

[JimAsDwight]

My boy just told me he can hold me down a pair

 extremely happy, as said before and what he told me they're going to be everywhere just limited quantities 

 

[squatchnt]

That "we did the raffle Monday or Tuesday" is shady. Like really, you dont even know when it was held?

Lol that's what I said because I couldn't remember what day she said. My short term memory is terrible lol.

Ok I woulda felt disrespected if a store said we did the raffle but I'm not sure when we did it...

 

[Bert.]

I'm just saying box means nothing

I have 2 pair of 2013 in replacement boxes because original boxes were trashed to hell.

Doesn't make my pairs fake if I sold them lol

 

[shottadru]

where is the camp going down in nyc? 34th street?

 

[palma]

Jordan boxes always go flimsy. I still keep them because when selling buyers much prefer to have the original over replacement regardless of condition.

 

[jordan novice]

I don't keep up with this sneakers anymore (stay in general forum), but was wondering how to buy shoes nowadays.

Is it all raffle? Online raffles too?

My box weren't flimsy, they were smashed. Dropped em while moving stuff around. They weren't use able so had to trash them

 

[iceysole12345]

so i did my round of calls

1/5 finish lines say yes. and the one that said yes mentioned they are very limited and the raffle will probably be only Monday.

2/3 footactions said yes and the 3rd said maybe will get them. they are on the list to receive them.

3/5 footlockers said yes. 1 said maybe, and another didn't pick up after two calls.

1/4 champs said maybe.

3/3 shoe palace's are the only ones that give me the strongest yes and raffle procedures. they even act like they are getting a lot too.

so the maybes i will still stop by Monday becasue i will be at the mall anyways for the other stores.

so yea im literally entering 20 raffles. im not taking any chances online. and if i dont hit on any i will let you guys know

footaction was bought by footlocker in 2004 after footaction filed for bankruptcy

footaction has 270 stores

footlocker has over 1800 stores

but yea foot action should carry more og retro 1's for some reason

This they don't have stamps. Plus anyone can just buy a fake and switch the lid right? Why not know as much as possible?

 

[newgodflow]

So?

So? That's really messed up...

Yes sir. I just wanted to be a cool kid back then. But I legitimately like Jordan 1s and don't know how things work anymore.

Much has changed since lining up

Well I do know where I live (SW Florida) the only store that gets OG 1's (IE Chicagos, UNCS, no SBB) is Footaction. My Footlocker never ever get's any OG 1's. I wonder why.
