Here is my story...
So I have been talking to my wife about the release of these shoes. On June 1 I was at Ontario Mills in line to try to snatch a pair. Well, long story short, I was not able to, because the nike staff there are just too shady talking about how we can only commit to the size ask for written on the ticket, and if at the check out they don't have that size then we can't buy other sizes.... Anyway, I told my wife that I didn't get a pair and that I would have to probably pay the reseller's price for them. So I came home from my work trip last night and when I opened the door this was what I saw on the stairs:
She managed not only to get a pair, but size 9.5. (These do run a bit small, I normally wear 9, but 9.5 was perfect). When I saw them, I was totally speechless... I was like.. wait, what, how, how how how? She said she was able to do some research and found an outlet that was selling them, she got there around 6am and was about 70th person in line. I was just so shocked and still speechless.
So she then asked me, what I was planning to do with this pair, whether to rock it, or keep it DS. I told her that since this is my only pair, I will keep it DS for now and may rock it later on.
She said OK, so if you have more than one then you will rock them? I said "yeah". So then said OK... if that's what you want to do. Then she said.. ok, it's late let's go to bed. I was like OK yeah I am tired too since I just had a long flight home.
When I opened our bedroom door this was what I saw on the floor
I almost fainted! I was even more speechless. She told me this was my father's day present. I told her that one pair was sufficient... she said nah.. I know you have been working hard and I was able to get multiple pair, so I did!
Guys.... I hope you will find a wife or significant other that will treat you just as well as my wife has treated me. She was so sweet to go to an outlet in the morning, not knowing whether if it was even safe for her to do that... but later she told me she got some of our relatives to go with her.
I LOVE MY WIFE!
YES I did say thank you and many many many LOVE YOUs.....
Shoe observation:
Has anyone noticed the inner sock liner comes in different material. 2 of my pair are cloth, and the other 2 have this smooth material, sorta shiny. Kinda reminded me of the inner sock liner like the flip 3, although I don't think these are leather. Just an observation to be thrown out there.

Damn, which outlet did she go to, to get three pairs? If you're around Ontario, I would only imagine her going to Cabazon.

Couldn't have been cabazon. I was there and there weren't 70 people in line. But damn that's a sole mate hahaha. All the chicks that ever bought me sneakers ended up being unfaithful lol

The leather on these reminds me a bit of the leather NSW used on the co.jp retros. I'm glad JB didn't decide to brush these with the vintage material, although there'd probably be just as short a line for them as there was for the co.jp retros if that was the case.
