I'm a highschooler, but I've watched almost every game jordan has played (my dad was a huge fan...weird for a korean dad -____-'), my dad recorded every game on VHS and showed it too me. I know what these concords mean, and I was waiting for the whole year. I'm so excited right now, and i can't wait to put them on my feet. Yes my feet not some other dude for money, i'd camp alone too but that's risky at hilltop. So yes i'm taking a couple of friends, and we planned this **$+ months before doing our homework. and my friends are in the shoe game for the love not the money, they actually have it better too, a dad that understands the shoe game.

Conclusion? We gettin the shoes for the history and the player that became a legend. not all highschoolers are hypebeasts. I'm just saying.

Funny you say that. Was Kim Jong II your dad.
"Kim was a big basketball fan — and an even bigger Michael Jordan fan. Madeleine Albright, former secretary of state, presented him with a ball signed by Jordan and Kim is said to have owned a video library of nearly every game Jordan played."

from the Washington Post

good for you young'n!!  Seriously!

Your Dad did you a great service by showing all that footage.  It's nice to see you doing it for you and you know the background and history as opposed to being drawn in because your favorite rapper is wearing them!

Good luck dude I hope you come away safe and happy!

Just sent my cousin out to Serramonte Mall to get a wristband and he said there was a good 1000+ people in line. Went from the wall by Target all the way to Macys!!! That's bay @+## for you.

 

I could tell dude was MAD cause he called me and said... I was an A-Hole and hung up. When I sent him out there I told him there was only like 200 people in line and he should be good.

I worked night crew last year and went straight from work. I showed up in some black sweatpants, an ivory colored shirt, some white/navy diamond turfs that were beat in 2005 let alone last year. Everyone was looking at me funny. I dont need other dudes to stare at my sneakers during a release. I dont wear them for you.

so when do you need other dudes to stare at your sneakers?
jokes.
i understand when people come straight from work or have to go to work but i'm wondering when some people actually wear their shoes. i were mine whether i'm going out to the bar, going to the post office or going to the supermarket.
of course i try to avoid wearing white mesh and icy soles in the rain or snow but other than that it's whatever. and i take very good care of my shoes.
i know people that buy shoes consistently, keep most ds in a closet and wear beaters or random stuff daily. just curious when they'll ever wear the stuff they buy.

Yeah, on a release like this, I agree 1 should be the limit.  I think things would run smoother.

lol, i was going to head to serramonte for the kobe 7 christmas release, because i knew it will be too late for the concords.

 

[lazyj23]

Any one know how many people lined up at HOH beverly center?

 

[airsully]

have NEVER heard of a place asking for a copy of ANY of my other bills ?? WATCH OUT --- RED FLAG !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[jays4day23]

I always laugh seeing some of y'all with your sentimental stories of what these Jordans mean to you or whatever. It's a shoe, made out of materials. Obviously Jordan Brand doesn't care about your stories because they raised the price of this shoe 2 times, original retail was $125, then $175 and now $180. Stop being fooled, Jordan only cares about making a profit. So I suggest you stop complaining about so called "high schoolers" who you claim know nothing about what this shoe means, and supposed hypebeasts. As for resellers, what are you gonna do, its part of the shoe game everybody tryna make a buck just like JB sadly even if it comes at the buyer's expense. Best advice, I got for everybody is do what you gotta do now, call places, hell line up like a fool now if you really want a pair or make sure your ONLINE game is tight. ALL MEN & WOMEN FOR THEMSELVES! TRUST ME Don't let anyone fool you about how crazy this release will be. Good luck!

When I was in line for the Blk/cement 3's at HoH, there where 2 dudes with them on already, they had bought them from Finishline which opend early. They where in front of me and where like yea these are to fresh I keep them clean I was like u just bought them like 2 hours ago lol,they where like doing leg stretches just to flash the shoe hypebeast to the MAX, once HoH opend they got of line and didn't even cop the shoe. I got there at 1am they had to be there since 10pm HoH opend at 3am, they wasted 5 hours just showing of the shoes

My word to the wise would be to stay away from the midnight releases at the local malls...cat's in TX been posted up since Tuesday...It pays to shop at the smaller venues...TRUST ME

I think someone will be alright as long as they line out all important information and show proof of address. Which they are looking for.
