METHODMAN....AWESOME! I REALLY HOPE THE NIKE/JB EXECS READ THAT!
i used to love Jordans, hence the name JordanLovah, but it's been so ridiculous that i try to
stay away from the trash that's been released as of late. stupid JB folks say no more retros but
release crap packs in which all the shoes are retros. i don't get it
but i do know that they are MARKETING GENIUSES.
i saw recently saw pics of the UNCs at work, but we didn't get them. my co-worker wants a pair in a size 7.
i don't know if they were made in this size or not, but please drop me a msg if you have any info.
thanks!

Dude, you took my size 13's from Finishline Roseville! How could you do that to a fellow Casa Roble alumni?!?!?

I got a few replies to my size 12s, i responded to the first one, if i get my 13s thats who will get my 12s. However, I might be able to procure more GT andUNCs by next week. If they are still hard to find by then (still hoping for late shipments) I'll gather size requests and I will try to get more. Noguarantees tho.

I would disagree with that for at least a couple of reasons:
1) If you have 22 products available, what would you rather have? 22 satisfied customers or 1?
2) What scenario allows you to sell the most apparel, socks, laces, whatever: 22 pairs to one person or 22 pairs to 22 people?
This release was mishandled from the top down, period. You actually had a good product here. Let's face it: it's no minor miracle that they were able to take the XV SE and make people actually WANT to pay $130 for them. They FINALLY utilized their college licenses in an interesting way, and many of us in DC have something of an emotional connection to those kente cloth patterned Georgetown uniforms.
It was a great product idea, and they absolutely BLEW it with their mind numbingly idiotic allocation. You had this great buzz - surrounding the XV SE!! Now look at it, it's just another classic example of how the brand systematically abuses its most loyal supporters.
It's probable that this particular manager didn't know what they had on their hands and/or lacked the authority to implement a per customer limit without approval from the corporate office. Whatever the reason, the end result is that it's really the dedicated Jordan fan that loses in all of this - and the brand's image takes yet ANOTHER hit.
Personally i am not going to buy any of these 15 SE. Maybe the release was just chaotic, i cant say that it was because i did no reaserch into trying tofind out which stores where going to have them and how limited they were going to be.
to be honest, this shoes are just like dubzero's or spizzike's, not in that they are formed using several jordans combined together, but in that itsanother product that they put the jumpman logo and called it a jordan. its fine, i guess but i havent bought any of those shoes the only ones i stick to is1-23. and i dont consider these in that range
Jordan does abuses those loyal supporters, why do they do it? they dont care about the brand anymore all they want to do is make a buck. we can hate them forthat, but is that enough to make you stop buying them.
all in all, there isnt any concrete evidence that 22 pairs got sold to one individual. but you bring a strong point with what would allow you to make moresales on other minor products. 22 people are better than 1
its not the first time somebody gets to buy a lot of pairs from a retailer just for the purpose of resale, Finishline allows you to buy 24 pairs (i think)online and eastbay 10... i am sorry for those who missed out and really wanted them, but there has been a couple pairs here and there that i missed. what canwe do?? all i can tell you is good luck
Did Georgetown really use these shoes, or UNC? i ask because i dont know. with that said if they didnt use them the only possible conection there is would becolor scheme, and even that its not strong enough for me.
who knows, but those are my 2 cents.

For whoever called Solardreamer a reseller, he is not. He's a good friend and I know he bought them for people who really wanted them, not make a buck. Thanks for my pairs, bruh!
^ cosign. There is no way i could've gotten mine had it not been for Solardreamer... Thanks again, man..
hmmmm, at $350 a pop on ebay. I would say that constitutes trying to make a buck/reselling....
Oops....
Good luck selling those for $350.

Nowhere in Philly at all. Hopefully that post about shipments being delayed is true.

Just got back again. I tried to get pairs for everyone that PM'd me in order and if the size was still available.
I had a few 10.5 requests but I had to cover my man Ijapino first on those!
DJKona -- Just PM'd you. Grabbed a 13 for you!
Ijapino -- Got both colorways for you!
Jetson2333 -- Grabbed a 9 UNC for you!
Enigma9912 -- Was able to get both pairs for you too!
Vinsanity -- Got both pairs for you!
My store still has sz. 8/8.5/10's in both colorways. I'll be glad to help but will have to go back tomorrow morning.
I don't quite understand why these only hit the West so far considering both schools are East teams, but hopefully everyone on NT can help eachother outand those who want to wear them can get theirs.
