These are sitting at the FTL I work at and I'm not surprised. We sold 1 pair on release day

Hypebeasts don't buy anything that isn't a I, III, IV, V and XIs.

Hypebeast will buy just about any retro, number doesn't really matter. I guess not that many were feeling this colorway.
 
Ordered these off finsihline.com, and went to footlocker champs and footaction to sign up for the raffles. And these were sitting could've copped in-store.

THIS ODDLY HAPPENED IN STRANGE PLACES... NYC (FOR THE MOST PART) WASNT ONE OF THEM.... PPL WERE TAKING RAFFLES AND LINING UP FOR GUARANTEED TIX EVERWHERE...IT WOULD HAVE BEEN SO GREAT TO WALK INTO A STORE AND JUST COP...
 
No one should really be paying reseller prices on these.

Mad pairs sitting everywhere.

Call around, a store may have your size.
 
Quick '02/'12 comparison...

Both. '02s on top. '12s on bottom.

Drove around east/south bay in the Bay area for the raffles today, and these r sitting everywhere I went, the quality feels good, and I almost pull the trigger. Might do it after the 11s madness. Just like the last shot last year. :tongue:

IMO the '02s are actually WARM grey.

And 10 years later, they got it true to the name.

I too prefer the wam grey look of the '02s.

O REALLY?

THESE WERE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE FOUND ANYWHERE BY THIS TIME.

THEY ARE JUST SITTING IN JUST ABOUT EVERY SNEAKER STORE I WALK INTO....

O WELL, GOT MY PAIR ALREADY AND MY BRED 11'S LOCKED UP.
 
starting to want these... meh, after the madness of the xi's this friday, i'll think about it
 
so these come stock with the skinnier laces, right?

The pics on the last few pages with the fatter laces look much better.

Info on where to cop?

Waiting for my pair in the mail so I'm not positive on the laces just yet

I KNOW.

THE HIGHLIGHTED LINES ARE SARCASM.

ACCORDING TO SOME THESE WERE SUPPOSED TO BE GHOST AND NO WHERE TO BE FOUND AFTER RELEASE DATE, YET STORES HERE STILL HAVE A GOOD AMOUNT OF PAIRS.

As some of us predicted, just like last shots :nerd:
 
I think I found a spot for the thicker laces, I'll let you guys know after I get my pair.
 
Got mine in from NDC today...

besides the flimsy laces and the struggle to get my foot inside the shoe, im good. :D
