hmmm, prices have come down on Jordans in Australia...
the recent retro 3's sell for $220.00 if you got a free Footlocker membership its 10% off, so thats $198.00 ( tax included)

the XI's will retail for $240.00 , with 20% off , they will be $192.00 (tax inclusive) so its pretty much on par with US pricing.

our fashion is similar to the US (i was there on holiday in July) alot of hype for the black and white "Spacejam" in Australia, so these will sell well, but wont be hard to get.

Also keep in mind, of late, Footlocker Australia and Nike get a very limited number of retro's allocated to them, we maybe get 2-3 pairs in each size and that will be it, no re-stocks. Lebron and Kobe shoes sell very here .... Not too many younger guys coming through are familiar with Jordans.

plus, i have been told by the Nike store guys they will be getting these in very large numbers.

99.9% sure he was joking...
 
He's saying that even though people out there may not refer to them as Concords there is a lot of hype for the shoe, that's incorrectly referred to as Black/White "Spacejams".

Oh yeah? Haven't heard anything. I got a "doubtful" when asked.
why doubtful? SJs and CGs were discounted....basically a Xmas "gift" from Nike to swoosh holders....looks like limit will be 1 then

I knew the Space Jam's were discounted and I was able to order two pair back in '09, wasn't aware that the Cool Grey's were discounted. Damn, that kinda hurts. LOL I just figured that the Concord's weren't going to be discounted since it doesn't seem like "major" releases are discounted anymore.
Were the CG's limted to 1 per person?
 
Time to burst some bubbles folks.

Chicago information:

Last year, House of Hoops Chicago got 150 pairs of CG11s.

They got concords today - only 70. Other Foot Lockers are only getting between 12-24 pairs.

So a prime opportunity for JB to satisfy consumers with mass production, they have done the opposite.

This. Unless something changes in the next week or so before RD, they are not going to be discounted. Would be a nice Xmas gift from Nike, but I highly doubt it. None of the recent Jordan releases have been discounted on RD, even the wack ones.

thats what im thinking, make less of a GR that will sell out immediately? never heard of that "game" and doubt a billion $ corp. has ever played it...
 
They are only getting half shipments and the rest are coming in I bet. I have heard alot of places getting plenty, even spots that don't get anything are getting these. Just put in work finding a spot and I think you will be fine.

YEP THIS WAS CONFIRMED TO ME AS WELL. HOWEVER, THEY CAN STILL BE BOUGHT ON DISCOUNT FROM THE NIKE EMPLOYEE STORES.

I'm not sure where you got this info, nor am I discrediting it but which HoH are you referring to? State or North Riverside?
I know for a fact that one of those locations has more than 70 pairs....way more.

Also there are several other venues across the city that have more than 70 pairs and are nowhere near the volume sellers like HoH.
