Official Air Jordan X "Chicago" release thread 1/21/12! No buying/selling/trading!

Does anyone in Houston know which stores are still stocked up or doing a re-stock? I know the H-Town Sneaker Summit is coming up this weekend but I dont feel like dealing with re-sellers!

Just my .02

i rolled out of bed at 830 on the 21st, was at the mall by 930(FNL opened at 6 by the way), "strolled" in, got my pair, walked out.  now for clarification i live in toledo,oh so yes it can be considered a "small" town when compared to others but we do have a large fnl, a ftl and a jjazz plus some mnp shops.  just my .02...

No clue. I've personally been trying to figure it out for a couple weeks, and all the info i've gathered is so damn random. I've emailed Nike and received the expected half baked response. So i gave up. Some have it, some don't.
 
Congrats to everyone that got their pairs!  Sorry for the late reply, crazy weekend as you all know.

If you would like us to check on the status of your order, just send us a private message with your customer/order number.

These shoes will be double boxed, even if you only order one pair.

We use both UPS and USPS on orders shipping out with standard shipping.

Out of the 40 or so pairs I picked up... about 25 had hangtags. All of the pairs that I got from Niketown LV had them. The rest I got from HOH, and less than half of them had hangtags.

No clue how the hangtags were distributed.

just received my pair from NDC. they look good. (and came with the hang tag for those wondering). boxing is definitely different from the pair i copped from the store. smh. they must have pillaged through the boxes or something.

It seems to be a hit or miss these days for expectations of availability.  It's just best to think of the worst case scenario and be prepared.  I'm thankful Nike built us a concept store in this last 12 months because how I figure is since it's their store, they'll have the most available.  For those that don't have a Nike Store or Niketown, I imagine it's gotta be 2X's worse dealing w/ shady employees, limited stock, or just really bad launch planning.  Unless you're absolutely sure a sneaker will be there, always have 3 plans

I'm expecting no hype on those Royal X's but who knows after these last few drops..

Congrats is right, its truly an accomplishment to get anything done on your sorry-tail website. Any info as to why your company continues to be the worst online site out of all the majors? I honestly tried to give yall another oppurtunity after a late cancellation/refund on my BC3's back in late November, but this was just pathetic, again. Why is it too much to ask for Eastbay to be able to prepare for their own releases and have servers capable of handling the traffic for the pairs that you do have- not to mention the fact that the site doesnt keep accurate count of theyre own inventory. Dealing with yall is like throwing darts blindfolded in my opinion. I mean, with all that money you guys have saved in sheisty packaging over the years, they couldve atleast upgraded theyre computer system with it, because i know they aint paying their employees worth a crap

TRUTH!!!!!
I don't even consider eastbay as an option anymore. They have infuriated me beyond belief. And now i have to pay sales tax if i buy from them, so its completely pointless. You'd figure all these years in the industry would have figured things out.

THERE ARE 2 NIKE FACTORIES/DISTRIBUTION CENTERS IN MEMPHIS. ONE OFF SHELBY DR. ON TUGGLE AND ANOTHER RIGHT OFF WINCHESTER. YOUR SHOES MORE THAN LIKELY WERE PICKED AND SHIPPED FROM THE NIKE FACTORY ON TUGGLE.

THE OLD DAYS OF PEOPLE HITTING UP THE NIKE TRAIN SHIPMENTS IN MEMPHIS....RUTHLESS

QFT!!!  IMO, just reset to where you guys were two years ago, 'cause honestly the new improvement or whatever you guys at Eastbay have done on the server just doesn't work
