Official Toronto - Outlet and Store report

parking at the Niagara Falls sucks. That outlet used to be good before Vaughan Mills opened, as it had RL Polo. I remember the brutal lineups to use the washrooms there. I wouldn't go there from Toronto, unless you want to go the the casinos or sight seeing.

they tried to hide some sz13 kd all star on my girl after they told her they had several pair smh she got there in like 20 mins so the chick she spoke with was like no way they not here cause we didnt even sell any that fast....ends up some guy was like trying to either hold or hide them for resale..i did get them though ..they still have alot from what she told me along with more releases
 
How was the Lebron X Christmas release this morning? don't think it would be a big demand seeing as I saw others posts that other Footlockers/Champs still carried.
Didn't think Spizikes were gonna sell quick but when i got to HoH around 5pm yesterday the guy said they had a few left not sure how many they had.
 
400
 
just a heads up for the ladies (and small-feet men)...

SVP Sports will be getting a few colours of the WMNS Roshe Runs if you're looking to grab a pair...from what I saw at work this past weekend there is a Rave Pink pair, as well as the Blue/Volt pair and Black/Pale Purple (almost white)...they are 59.99 or 69.99, can't remember off the top of my head..
 
Hey guys, don't want to be a buzz kill for those of you looking forward to this weekends blacktoe release but I just came back from my local FTL and was chatting about it with the manager i'm cool with and two other employees and wanted to give you guys a heads up on the questionable quality. I wasn't planning on purchasing anyway but just wanted to check them out. The manager was explaining to me they only got half their shipment because the other half was defective to the point they couldn't be sold, issues like massive creasing and shoddy stitching, marks and scuffs, glue issues etc.  They did let me get a look at one of the pairs they did have and let me tell you I was seriously not impressed, the leather isn't the greatest , frayed and loose lines sticking out from where the sock liner at the ankle ends (beside the tongue) as well as the lace holes ,no protective sticker on hologram and minor creasing. JB quality just seems to be getting worse and worse and it's one of the reasons why I don't buy Jordans as much as I used to......I wanted to post this info just to give you guys a heads up, the issues I listed were what I observed from holding that specific pair and is in no way indicative of the rest of the pairs that will be released. Other pairs may be great quality, who knows? but I'd suggest for people who are planning to cop to maybe go to your local spot and ask to get a peek before taking the plunge and see for yourself, don't take my word for it..

Thanks for the heads up, Testify.

I'll take a look at the pairs we got some time this week and let you know if we have the same issue. JB QC has definitely been questionable lately, but there are some that still turn out great, like the Black/Red 4s, which I found to be decent in terms of QC.

You can go to any Footlocker down south and find pairs here... The supply may be low in Toronto but that is not the case for Louisiana and Texas... Therefore, they probably will hit the outlets. Historically every Jordan after the 23's hit the outlets...

Thanks for saving me cash man. Was looking forward to them but I'm not paying for substandard quality.

Anyone have any idea on #s for the Bred XI drop on Friday? I'd like to plan what time to hit up HoH.
 
I assume they would get a lot of bred 11's. That shoe, alongside the bred 4, have been passed around a lot! 

just like the bred 4, HOH toronto should get enough bred 11s to fulfill the peoples needs.

so it was Foot Locker Canada that deemed the quality too poor, or Nike Canada? If it's Foot Locker, then there is a good possibility that other stores also got low quality ones but still sell it anyway?

I really like the Xmas Lebrons but im a big football fan and the fact they went for Miami Dolphins colorway for a pair of Xs is sick by far one of the coolest Lebron X' ive seen.
