These have been always hot. Royals thread wasn't that big too until the week before RD.

by the looks of it, these are looking possibly slightly more limited than the Royals. if i didnt have a connect, id gladly pay that 50% markup not to have to line up like a chump or deal with the shenanigans that accompany these type of releases. if you think its going to be easy getting these, think again. The Royals were supposed to be easy too, and you see how that turned out

I was able to get some for my mans at $190 pre-order... He wanted a second pair, and by the time I wrote back to homie, the sz he wanted was sold out...
I didn't even like the royals like that (I had em in 01 so I guess I was tired of looking at my pair) and passed, but sheesh, this is crazy. What happened
the last couple of days? Lol

It's cool. I'm just glad I secured my pair before all the madness begins on RD.

If you don't mind paying a little extra go for the pre-orders. We have already been told these are a QS. There was no mention of the Royals being a QS and we see how that release turned out. Grab the pre-sale, try to cop in store/online for retail on RD, then sell your pre-order to get your money back.

That's exactly what I'm doing. I never have success buying online on RD. I'm 32 so campouts make me feel dumb and out of place. Goodluck fellas.

Great, now we have to deal with pre order folks who ALREADY have a pair, and are still trying to cop on RD. Then sell their extra pair for 1000000% markup lol. Same folks who probably complain about resellers and hypebeast SMH

The amount of pre-sale pairs is still very small so it shouldn't affect your chances of buying your pair in your area.

I normally would agree with such logic, but when stores are looking at 24-32 pairs...
No, not because of the higher profit margin, but for the fact that was the "pair you didn't expect to get".

I'm probably only going to keep the sz12 if I happen to win the raffle for it because that's the size I need. The other 2 pairs I bought arent my sz but I bought them incase someone is willing to trade for my size. There's only one store near me thats getting them

24 pair is the most u are going to see at any spot
12-16 pair is more realistic

Not true. That was the third Royals thread already, There were plenty of pages filled before the week leading up to royals.
And you gotta be kidding me, so now dudes aren't only taking pairs not in their size to try and trade for their size later , on release day. But they're doing it on PRE ORDERS? Pre orders? We're talkin pre orders....pre orders!

That's more ridiculous than thinking you're too old to wait in a line. Dude up there was right, too. Same people crying about resellers are about to raise the hell out of these resell prices since they will think they're justified in making a $100 profit off of a $200-$250 pre order. Do your thing, retail or bust for me. Now I'm gonna be after multiples since NT has already driven the prices to $210 plus shipping and fees, minimum.

I'm not taking any chances for this release because I ALWAYS get burnt online for RD. Campouts can be dangerous in my area.
...some of you want to take sly shots at me for it but I don't care. I am set.
Good luck fellas.

Im still on the fence about these, that translucent sole is sick but that white outsole is a little iffy.

The hate against pre-orders is starting to pile up :-(. Let's be real NT, unless your internet connection is 20-30mbps MINIMUM you will most likely strike out on these( and why you prolly striking out now on hard to get stuff) let alone the bots running wild...
