    Repped for helping me out. I'll be going late April (or whenever I get my passport) if you have some pairs sitting there I can pick em up for you.

    Any scoop about next month's Concord release here in Calgary? I phoned Groupseven yesterday, they said they're not sure if they're getting them.

    FL at Chinook has a size 12 still. Too bad it's not my size.

    Kobe 9 Details, AJKO, Baron 9, Gamma 11, DB 10 and 3Lab5 Infra.

    10's will be for sale if anyone is interested. Will be copping the foams this weekend and maybe the snakeskin.

    Going to Chinook this Saturday morning for 11 snakeskin lows. Should I be there at least before 6am pretty much?

    I'm only a sz 9 so...

    Are there any other malls that will carry the 11's?

    My buddy said while everyone was camping at Chinook for the Gamma 11's, it's the exact opposite at Sunridge. He literally walked in there at 9 am and easily copped a size 10.5. Can't be so sure if true but he showed me the receipt. So you might wanna give it a go there instead of Chinook.

    Nike Canada is a joke right now. I am shocked anyone can get restock at all.

    Exactly, if you don't have a US connect, you get screwed by Nike Canada

    I second this. Nike store in Toronto seemed pretty corrupt to me too. I don't even bother try for anything in Canada. I try to get everything sent tot he US and then have it collected when family is coming over or vice versa.

    What are you looking to pick up? If lows do you know how pairs are at Chinook? In Winnipeg it seems pretty limited.

    Called Chinook FL this morning. They said they'll have 3 FSR's but when the Gamma 11's came out, people are lining up the night before and these are Concord Lows so 7 might be too late if you really want a pair. Champs said they still have no clue how many pairs they'll get but I'm assuming it's gonna be close to how much FL is getting. Sport Chek said they're not getting them (no surprise here).

    FL @ Market doesn't get any releases like this anymore, do they?

    I lived in Varsity for a year and after the CG XI's, they didnt seem to get anything other than team Jordan stuff.

    No clue. But FL Sunridge gets crazy love from JB. They got almost the same amount of pairs of Gammas as FL Chinook did. That's where I got Black Cement 4's a week after its release.

    I find it's so hit or miss. Sometimes they get the same amount sometimes they get 1/2 the amount. Certainly easier to cop there vs Chinook though. I don't even bother with either anymore, not enough love from the managers and to many clowns without jobs camping the night before...

    Has anyone had any luck with sites online? NDC doesn't work for us up here so I'm thinking Champs , EB and FL would be the places to go. Most spots like Livestock do in store first then put it up on the sites so that doesn't help. Any help would be appreciated.

    Most of us near the border just ship them stateside and go pick them up, in which case NDC works wonders.
