That sucks dude, I'm glad the people that work at my HoH aren't like that. They can't even buy a pair until after the 6:00pm deadline on launch day on any shoe that is raffled/rsvped.
Heads up to the SoCal Valley peeps, I passed on my size 9 Kobe's @ Champs in Topanga Mall, dunno if they will let anyone walk in a get them straight up, or if you have to wait till 6. I told them I would pass on it though. I was really close to buying two pairs, but my wallet is waiting for Inlines.
Anyone else notice theres a Lebron and KD elite+ that are both white, coming out a week before the Superhero elites, but no Kobe elite+ that would also be white?
So, walked into FTL today and easily reserved my pair of Easters, then literally 10 mins ago, I get a call from Champs right next from that FTL and they picked my ticket for a pair of Easter's there, cop 2?! hahaha i'll prob just end up coppin one
Try to see if you can find a Champs nearby, they're getting them too. It might not be a raffle there, and its not confirmed if its raffles for all FTL's
length wise the 8's are true to size, width wise however, is kind of small so you would go half a size up if you have a wider foot. If you can find a pair of 8's at FTL or where-ever at the size you're thinking of getting those ASG's in, I would try them out so you can get some sort of feel for...
Btw, FTL @ Westfield Topanga Mall in CA still have Red Camos at 10.5, they have all the other colorways as well, even size 9 Blue Lights. Definitely worth calling in or dropping by if you live in Valley area.
It's a nice swap, but I like the dark grey laces cause just like someone said in this thread, the Grinch laces draw attention away from the colors of the shoe. But it def matches!
I'd love to get those red camos but that might be too much seeing as how I just got the Supernats, Volts, ASG's, gettin the Easters, and I want my last pair to either be the Purple gradient or the solid greyish-white, with purple soles that Kobe wears during home games.
No Problem! FTL lady on the phone I talked to said to call back a week before the release because they tend to start handing out tickets from 1 week before the shoes come out, but then she added its up to her store manager as to exactly when within that week they will start handing out tickets.
If you live in the Valley in SoCal, so like Canoga Park area, I called FTL and they said they will most likely raffle the Easters and Champs will also have them as first come first serve, both in the Westfield Topanga Mall.
So since I missed out on retail ASG's, I decided to go for a pair on ebay and its being shipped from Brooklyn. I messaged the seller and after a few correspondences he sent me a message today saying he/she shipped the shoes out, but couldn't find an extra box to double box, but that the shoes...
