    So, since some (if not all) of these stores are looking out for employees, it is almost guaranteed that people will get shafted for their size. If thathappens, I'm coming straight to NT first to see who's in need of a trade in my size.



    What sizes you guys getting, a poll to see which size I should go after in the event of..........................



    If you don't want to do this, whatever, I have a feeling some people don't want to expose this, for whatever reason it may be.



    Of course we'll see a lot of these pop up on eBay, but why go through the hassle of buying again, then selling the wrong size pair you bought. Of course,this is all in the event of................

    I like the fact that when they designed the xx3 they designed it without over doing the jumpman logo or putting in xx3 somewhere in the shoe...but that mj orargyle patern is a bit too much...

    I called them 2 days ago & they hadn't decided yet how they were going to handle it. One thing about Kicksthough is a lot of people have connections there so don't be surprised if there won't be many pair available despite how they go about sellingthem.

    IMO... JB should have ONLY released these at Nike Town stores... reason being then they could GUARANTEE that the shoes that go to stores will ACTUALLY be soldto the general public instead of just to the stores employee's... Cause we all know all these smaller shops half their 23 pairs if not more will be gonebefore the doors even open!!! I mean look at the Pener's... 3 stores gonna split 23 pairs??? Each store MIGHT release 5 to the general public after theemployee's are taken care of... Ohh well... Alot of people are gonna be pissed on this one... I'm curious to see what these are gonna resell for...Gonna be crazy... Good luck to all tryin to cop...

    It's funny how Jordan's have always had the rep of being the shoe that people get killed on the street for while they're wearing them or they getheld up for them. Now JB is essentially begging people to do that with this release. If we all thought the DMP was madness, this is going to be insanity. Iagree with the guy up there that they should only go to Niketowns because at least there everyone has a fair shot and can actually buy them at retail becauseif mom and pop spots were selling the DMP's at like 500 and 600 the day they came out, these will probably hit damn near 1,000. This is definitely a shoethat any other day I would love to own because the style of it is amazing and I'm a sucker for a Carolina blue colorway but with only 596 pairs even beingmade I value my time and my life more than getting a pair of shoes. So be safe and good luck to everyone camping out and putting their names in raffles becausethis is going to be another sneaker story for the history books.

    Exactly, I would have no problem if these were just some underground/super limited release to VIPs or something and you just had to luck up/grind to get'em.

    This is not only wack but irresponsible of JB...

    I suppose they have forgotten the XBOX and PS3 shakedowns already? [​IMG]

    It would be cool if high-quality videos of all the Air-Jordan commercials were on the CD.

    so the grey/blue xx3's are pretty much impossible to pick up, i understand that...



    how limited are the white xx3's?? it says *limited, but wondering how limited exactly... LS limited? top 23 stores limited? online only?

    I would guess somewhere along the lines of the "energy" releases like the DTRT Spiz'ike and similarshoes, where not every store will get them, but it shouldn't be hard to get your hands on a pair. LS releases are limited to urban accounts and the onlymajor chain that gets them is Footaction. And in the event you can't get to a store selling them, I doubt the resell will be significant over retailbecause of the already high price point and wider availability.

    This whole super limited XX3 crap gives me a headache. I'm glad I decided to pass on these. JB saved me $230. Appreciate it JB. [​IMG]
