So ummm Who is getting the QS IV's Cavs? lol

 

[buddhashark]

DTLR is White Marsh went down the line and asked everyone their size and said that if your size sells out you can only go up or down 1 half size or you can't get a pair. They ended up having enough for everyone in line and still would not let anyone get a second pair even after everyone in line got one pair.

Not too bad, GS are worse but they ok. The plastic eyelets are the worse part IMO

 

[briweezy]

I hope my size 10 will fit just fine, even if I need to use those shoe guards...

I ususally wear a 10 in everything, I know my white and reds from '09 are a 9.5 and they fit just fine.

Didn't wanna risk it so I bought a 10 from EndClothing while I could. Guess I'll find out Friday when they get here!

 

[loshirtsandretros]

This has to be a typo smh

 

[airsully]

Quality is on point IMO.

Did CT WG or HS ever drop these? Also, what abt NBA store?

 

[buddhashark]

I was out at the bar last night and forgot about the release. I checked my phone at 12:05 and followed the twitter link, checked out, and got an order confirmation from ndc at 12:08. Thank you Verizon 4G.

 

[imstillmike]

these was mad hyped plus they on release a limited of pairs

and last but not least the hype is real

 

[hiphopsince1980]

Fulton was a disaster today.......some people even got yoked up outside Jimmy Jazz.....mom/pop stores wanted 300 a pair. F that. On the way home stopped at another mom/pop in Bay Ridge. Resale price was 225, better then paying 300+. I had put aside 350 to cop 2 pairs. Im happy with my one pair. From here on out, if NDC/FNL/etc fail again on a Friday night....so be it. After today, Im not gonna be a hostage to this reselling garbage.

NBA store released their stock at around 4:50am.

Are those US sizes?

 

[allonakaoak]

Woke up at 8:30am and decided to check my local mall, which opened at 9am, for the hell of it since I was on my 
way to pick up some breakfast. First walked into Champs and they had one 8.5 left so I checked it out and thought about

maybe trading it with someone for my size but decided it wasn't worth the trouble. Then I went to Footlocker with

ZERO expectations, and asked if they had a 9.5 or 10...FTL bro asked me if it was birthday...got the last pair they had. 

What turned out to be a hellish night in front of my laptop for hours on end with the constant time out's from NDC, turned 

into the easiest walk-in cop yet

Finishline is a diaster. You can never, and I mean never count on them to come thru.
I would say approximately 75% of the orders I placed with FNL the past 3 years got cancelled.

Remember, they don't ship from a warehouse, they ship from individual stores. 
Of course with hot releases, the store mgr just replies back that size was not available and then it gets cancelled.
Crappy company, crappy system crappy name...
  

Finishline indeed does have a warehouse that they use to ship bigger releases from. stop giving false info.
