To those who have these Royal Blue 1 in hands, is the quality nice? Is it worth doubling up on these? I have a pair coming in the mail tomorrow. I would love to cop another pair right now by grabbing a pair off those Euro sites.
Also, do you guys the demands on these will fade soon after the Corks comes out? I have a feeling that the market price on these would reach 400+ in a year or so but I could be wrong.

Make sure you email them. They dont do COD with international shipping..only bank transfer and paypal.you wait and pray like the rest off us.

Took a risk on this, used a forwarding service to ship to me in Canada. Should cost around $220, $250 max after all is said and done.
Hopefully this works, getting a bit desperate lol

What would corks have to do with these? Most people have no shot at the corks. And if they do, most will be selling them.

I gotta disagree... This shoe was made in adult and kid sizes
this shoe is available in a GR size run including sz.12.5 and 13.5
My spot was shorthanded on ALL pairs releasing this weekend not just royals
Ask anybody with any kind of import export experience and they will tell you CNY has a huge effect on shipping and manufacturing in all businesses. (manufacturing of these wouldnt be effected but take notice historically most QS releases drop in the spring and were manufactured in a limited production run just before CNY)
Eastbays shipment was delayed... EASTBAY ! When is the last time you remember Eastbay not having their kicks to ship out on RD ?
If Eastbays royal Is are still in transit there have more pairs coming for other suppliers too.
Also keep in mind whats been said about JBs latest tactic of holding back stock on certain releases depending on hype to increase desirability and sell more pairs of every pair released.
sidenote... The notion that nike could have just sent them all out early before the Chinese holiday would never work. Sneaker stores have a limited amount of space in their stockrooms and cant afford to take up space with shipments of shoes they wont be able to sell for a month.
.... then again I could be totally wrong o0 ....maybe Im just holding out hope since I didnt get mine

lol the 2001s were supposedly individually numbered but it didnt take long before NTers compared their pairs and figured out JB was using the same tags with the same numbers on every other pair.
Can you explain?

I don't understand why people bring up the Corks. Not everyone is into every shoes. People looking at the Corks may have no interest in the Royals just like people who want Royals have no interest in LeBrons.

because we are a country of followers with blinders on that only allow us to see jordans as the only choice of footwear available.
obviously that is a generalization but the truth is still in the numbers...
on that note i ordered four pairs(none for sale) from Snipes, comes to around $175 each to my doorstep. having family that far away is a curse most the time but a blessing every once in a while

basically the 01's were numbered but there was A LOT of numbers repeated which defeats the entire purpose of numbering them
exactly
