Yup, went into a Nike store to see about this coupon after realizing today wasn't the 23rd. I asked about coming back tomorrow and they said it wouldn't make a difference since you couldn't use it on launch items. They said you would have to wait 48 hours to be able to use it and while tempting I would think by Friday most sizes of the Forbes would be gone.

Stopped by my local in Chicago today (had to work through lunch) and they sold out completely. Womp. Got the poster as a consolation prize.

Probably someone with media presence for brands, Jacquee gets tons of special stuff like this, like his Special Jordan 11 Space Jam box

These types of packages are only given out to a very limited group of people. Sometimes it's a special version of a collab to thank those who worked on it, sometimes it's famous people in the media, sometimes it's well known shop owners, etc. Most of these are not available to the public.
The other posters in here correct me if I'm wrong but aren't F&F the top of the exclusivity list? Something like:
- F&F
- HS
- QS
- GR

Good luck bro. Like I said it was tempting to wait and see if I could do the same but I didn't want to risk it.

Hyper strike.
I'm not sure if Nike does these anymore. They would release in very limited quantities and at a random date and time without warning.

^^^
the white version of the "masters of air" air max 1 coming out next month is a hyper strike so yeah Nike still does them from time to time.

Repped, didn't realize those were HS. I thought they were F&F for those who worked on the design.

I'm going through listings and I notice some people write "cut straps" or "straps have been cut". Any reason why people do this?

@FrankWh1te Ah ok. Would the shoes be less comfortable with straps cut? Also it's only the SB dunk lows that have tongue straps right

Denims are NICE in hand. Was able to get today. Honestly would have easily been best release in 2016 in my opinion. Gets me hyped for what's in store, but I fully expect disappointment come June/July.
I hope someone with a ridiculous memory like Dcy or Rap doesn't see this post and remind me during the summer.
"Yo bro, you was hype, but here we are at the end of summer and you've only copped Denims and Wheats"

Is Blades one of the stores? Do you have to buy something to enter the raffle?

Some things change a lot.
Some things never change. For instance. @John00 on a big release....
Thanks for all you do, homie. Even when I don't always take advantage of those posts, when I have, it's been crucial.

nah it doesn't effect the comfort whatsoever and yeah only lows required the straps to be cut to make the tongue more pop-able
