Almost all places I know of have switched to the raffle format.

Off the top:footaction, footlocker, shiekh , finishline. Check their release calendars online then show up in store and get your raffle tickets.

Sheikhs is cool. You go to the store and get the code then register online
for the raffle.



Niketown LA and Santa Monica both do RSVP via twitter.

Little known fact is that they usually release RSVPs that weren't picked up next day. But they won't admit it or advertise it if asked. You just have to show up Sunday and ask for the shoe, and hope they have them.

Worth a gamble if you're in the area as Santa Monica has been known to restock random heat.

seems like its a lot harder to get sneakers in la than anywhere else. prob due to the nice weather we got cuz you can rock your heat year round
