Official Air Jordan XI Concord Release thread 12/23/11 NO BUYING/SELLING/TRADING!

I received my finishline pair last Friday wasn't sure if I'd receive it seeing how I ordered the next day. But for some reason I think they sent me an early release pair if I post some pics can you guys tell?

what weight did they put on the shipment? on the fedex tracking page, it says Weight 0.8 kg/1.8 lbs for me. Not sure if that makes a difference. Let me know tux, i havent got a call. but i know everyone else with multiples from End got a call.

Peps over in styleforum are reporting being murdered on customs from End. They are having great winter sale and I am scared to cop. 
 
I dont know what hurts my heart more.

That someone thinks they got an "early release" pair

That people call kicks from the Nike factory "early release" pairs...

Or that dude actually thinks his pair from Finishline are fake....


How many comparison pics will people need to see from East Coast to West Coast.. from US to UK.. from Panama to Iran.. that Nike kicks are all produced with minor differences... but are still real.

it shows up like this on my tracking page: 1.2 kg/2.6 lbs

sucks on the customs, but its like paying semi resell prices, but I also got my order without any malls....first time ordering from a EU site, so lessons learned, but no biggie.
 
when you say "murdered" by customs, what do you mean?  How much/ballpark figure?  I got 2 more coming from CT, tryna figure out how much the bill is gonna be as they dont undervalue/or mark as gift...

not sure yet, just got the paper that I have to fill out for receiving them. I have heard roughly 20% of the declared value.

since I got my order in on EC before they raised the price on the pre-order like ( i was the one that posted the pre-launch link that they put up too early), its kind of a wash for me.

I got my pair thursday and I have worn them everyday. Been to the mall and various other places and just haven't seen them. Only place I saw them was at staples center when I went to the lakers game.

Got a lot of compliments, lot of folks telling me their stories on how they missed out. These shoes are comfortable...more so then the Cool Grey's IMO.
same here. i saw one guy with em on, and one girl with some GS ones one. that's it!

Didint pick up the OGs and 00s until I started collecting seriously in the mid 00s, but do remember both releases when they came around. 

  
 
Word about the visual street spottings.

Since release day, i have seen ONE guy with them on.

I was visiting my fam in Sacramento and a dude at Arden Fair
mall had them on (some oriental cat).

I would say that 70 percent of the purchased stock went to
resellers.

The other 30 either haven't worn them yet or waiting for gooder
weather before application.

On just about all my pairs, the left side of the shoe has a lower patent leather cut. all legit pairs bought from US and UK retailers. kind of a bummer that its but symmetrical with the right side.
