It’s still same tracking number my friend!

What is the deal, how long does it take for EMS or shipping company to scan shoes?

What website are you using to track?  You might want to try USPS and/or the EMS website, instead of the Hong Kong Post which is what AR uses.  That worked for me.

Looks like there will be a lot of unhappy people.

NM, it sounds like you've already tried that. Hope you get something to show up soon.

 

[rippaflow]

Hold up, you wore them in the snow.... (water)... (salt).... and you expected them to hold up? Those are now yellower in the bottom than my 2000 concords, 2000 jams, 2001 columbias... Shame. Youve got to care for clear soled shoes. Be smart, dont wear them in bad weather, in grass etc. Clean them after you wear them. What do you expect?

The most recent (and repeated) post from SDS/Jay's twitter. Interesting claim considering what NoobLee just dropped. Crap;



@SlamDunkSpace Jay

I wonder which sizes he's got that are "Real"...?? Noob...Wassup?!?!?!

 

[Bert.]

yea he didnt say anything about my pair. they are 100% authentic, we all know even he knows.

 

[nooblee]

Of course zyzz got a real pair, I've said in my first post in this thread. 

Jay checks this thread daily like all of us do, why does zyzz always get a pair before the rest of us do, though? Even eddo, who lives in Taiwan, which is faster to get the package?

How does zyzz know more about Jay, act as a medium and he delivers all the messages of Jay to us?

Like someone said a couple pages back, it's a part of the plan, to have zyzz get a real pair (which is 100RMB profit per shoe (real ones) if you do the math, 100RMB = around $17) and have people from Twitter to come and check out the real shoe, and mix in fakes with real ones.

Now with that being said.

Those who also ordered size 11 might be getting some real ones.

That's 1 outta 4 sizes 

 

[Bert.]

i dont think thats gonna happen. he told me everyone will be receiving exactly what i got. hes not gonna ruin his image even more after what happened with the space jams.

QFT! If there's a chance of rain, snow, etc. I'm rocking Vans. I also stay on the sidewalk/path when I'm walking and not through grass and dirt. Hate to see them yellowed like that but at least dude actually wears his shoes

lol...your posting this like I care.  Shoes are meant to be worn, I haven't cleaned the bottom once, nor do I plan to.  I never said I expected them to hold up.  If you look at the pic again, its mostly just dirt, only yellow around the pods, thats why I posted the pic.  If I did clean them, which I WILL NOT do, they will still be icey.  


**EDIT**

Here is a side view, STILL ICEY "brah"...so SHAME on you for not wearing your shoes....

Shipping was legit, communication was legit, and it was an overall good experience. While I doubt I'll partake in an early release again ... if I did, I wouldn't mind giving Air Randy another shot.

Whoa, these look good too. This jumpman is way different than the other ones in the comparison pic. PL cut in the back looks a little low but it looks like all of them are that way so far. ball isnt touching on the sole. Looks like the jumpmans fingers looks normal (from what you can see). The lines on the 23 on this one from AR looks thin like the ones in the comparison pic from SDS (Don't know which one is right yet)

If I get these from AR I will be pretty satisfied.

Legit pair.

And all the size 9 are also legit ? (that's 2 out of 4)

Definitely the legit pair. Soles are milky, correct spacing on jumpman on soles, cf looks good.

 

[papeshfoo]

^Umm, those are from Randy, not SDS...So still 1 out of 4...lol

 

[og2345]

Still...........no working tracking number.

 

[da future nike rep]

Everyone is so busy talking about real pairs and fake pairs. I still care however i am starting to get to the point where i can care less because what if there are great super fake pairs making it into the retail stores without too many ppl (if any) knowing about it? i have so many pairs of kicks put up, i am just going to start rocking most of the items that i have.
its always something, great marketing... take that for what its worth lol.

I definately wear all my shoes (Only DS pairs I have are this years true blues, 01 bred xi and the cool greys) I don't wear the same pair everyday. I wear them on rotation. I haven't worn my cool greys yet, because I have other grey shoes I haven't worn out yet. If I'm going to pay Jordan prices, then Im not going to deliberately wear them in conditions that will deteriate them faster. That's part of having a rotation. Some shoes are better served for the elements than others. Maybe I came at you wrong, but whenever I see someone complaining about shoes yellowing to quickly, they always talk about the conditions they put them through. Let's face it, all clear shoes yellow, fact.
