A lot of people are predicting these to be an easy grab. I hope thats true. When I say easy I mean walk in the the store at 8am on the dot and plenty sizes still available....

Yeah the only time this happened to me was last year when the Fire red 4's came out. Walked in the mall at about 8:45 and still was able to cop a size 12 from Finish Line with no wait......

You guys think this will be easier or harder to get than the bred 13s? I wonder what the production level these will have. There wasn't much bred 13s, most stores had 1 case.

These might not be too bad....the fire red IV last year wasn't hard to get at all.

Regardless, I know the stores in my area will be doing tickets for every jordan release now. No more walking in at 8am and grabbing them. You'll have to find out the insider on when they release tickets cause every store here does it at random times.

Jan. 26th should be interesting.
Wondering how will people react to the "No 23" on the side.
Is it the same crowd that passed on the White/Red 1s because "No Nike Air"?

I can definitely see these being easier to get than the Black/Red XIIIs ...my store doesn't get much, we didn't get the XIIIs but we got these almost 2 of every size. As someone already mentioned, it doesn't have the corny BRED nickname attached to them that makes everyone go crazy. Not saying these will sit but I expect shorter lines and easier to get online at least.

why would they react that way unless they dont know the ogs didnt have the 23 but then again ur right ppl complain about everything the no mars on the fire reds even tho the ogs didnt have it ether and i personally dont want nike air on my all my js the jumpman shows the evolution of the brand in my eyeJan. 26th should be interesting.

It simply all depends on how many pairs JB ships to retailers. If retailers get black&red 13 numbers then these will be just as of an hassle to get as those. I have a feeling that these will be produced in WC 4/black&red 13 numbers instead of BC IV/Charcoal 7 numbers making this a somewhat difficult release, though if you REALLY put in work, you should still be able to get a pair. These will not sit like the fire red 4 that's for sure. Definitely getting these. Passed on the black&red 13 so these will be my first pick up this year

Those Beezy's at NDC act like they don't have any clue when these are going to drop at their locations, but we all know the lil hypebeasts have all JB release dates marked on their calanders. So regardless of the 23 not being on the side, the hype is there and will be there for all future release.

Can someone school me on the "no 23" on the side? So the OGs never had the 23 on the side and that's what Jordan wore, then later on he started rocking the one's with the 23? Cause I seen pictures of both with and without the number in game pictures.

I can't speak for others areas but around me they got these in right their shipment of 13s which usually means they'll get more before RD I can usually tell if it s gonna be an easy cop by how early my Champs get them in either way they should sell out quick between those who really want em and those whi missed the 13s

These never had a 23 on the OG release, only the black tongue fire reds had it.
