i'm definitely curious to know what happened to clientele. i know recon is moving to williamsburg, for some reason.

Why wouldn't they? Williamsburg is going to be one of the IT places in NYC in a few years at the rate its developing.

Williamsburg is filled with hipsters tho. Im not sure if thats the best idea

ebay >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>ANY FC

I seriously went to both FC's in NY and they were OVERPRICED and had EXTREMELY LIMITED sizes....


The employees didn't even know what air max ltd.'s were... I was shocked.

I could open a better shoe store, seriously

yea clientele and recon are gone, flight club should have opened a spot on longisland

Its a consignment shop. If people don't bring it inthey don't have it.

And they're "overpriced" so the seller still makes a fair dollar amount after they take their 20%

Air Max LTD's.

i liked the idea of it being way harder to find for the average walker by in my oppinion it was the best location

Its not like average walker byer would buy shoes with their prices anyway.

so much hate for flight club, but people don't realize they should look at themselves, because its the consumer who's setting the prices by what theybid for shoes on ebay. The shoes are then marked up 20% by the person cosigning the shoes. Personally I've only bought about 2 pairs of sneakers throughthem but that place was and is ground breaking. No one in the U.S. can see their variety of stock, you know your getting a legit pair, and your dealing with astaff that (atleast was) knowledgeable. Some of the dudes do act like they are working a high profile job (usually the younger workers), but there are also afew dudes that work for FC that were into this "culture" when a lot you were in diapers that are good people. I've seen some of the cocky thinkthey know it all hypebeasts come in on a regular basis there and im sure that contributes to some of their attitude. If you can't afford the shoes in FCthats your problem not theirs, if you can find them somewhere else for cheaper more power to you, but FC didn't create the inflated prices that you seetoday, people beasting on eBay did, but it doesn't appear that a lot of the younger spizike collecting generation realizes that.

Yes, agreed. Good idea by FC.
