Just buy from flightclub after they release, or buy from airrandy, or guy at the gas station selling out of his trunk. 3rd option is best.

You wear my size (or want to resell my size). Not helping you at all bro, do some research and some leg-work and figure it out.

I would start by talking to your local shoe stores and ask them what their line situation is normally like. they usually have a pretty good idea of what is gonna happen with a release

Usually my regimen includes all the potential online / phone store orders at midnight. Then I grab a couple friends and go to a SAFE mall and carry only credit cards, not cash. The lines are usually peaceful but as always there are the few that screw it up for everyone. Be alert especially 30 minutes prior to drop.

A few sales associate on Friday said that this shoe wasn't going to sell on release day. Called most of the local shoe stores an hour after opening on Saturday morning and they all said they sold out within minutes.

Don't even start collecting, jays are declining. Quality is piss poor, resellers are at an all-time high, hypebeasts are at an all-time high. Save your $.

When I worked at Champs Sports, 9.5 - 11 were usually the most popular sizes sold. In popular retro's, we'd typically get 2-4 9.5's, 4 10's, 6 10.5's, and 4 11's. We get less of the size 12's/13's. As for the Black and White 10's, I'd say get there an hour before the release. Big releases like OG colorways are what you need to line up for hours in.
Please don't be a reseller.
Also whats the deal with resellers?

CALL Nike.com about 15-30 minutes before the time of release. You'll be on hold for awhile, could be a couple of hours, but it worked for me. Good luck kid. Peace.

DONT PREORDER THEM because if you preorder them the seller might not get his pair and you will be refunded and guess what you didnt get your pair. THat means you cant just be safe if you preorder. watch that video.
