First off, you just need to get off Magic's Richard.
All the twitter talk is about us obtaining the shoe for this thread. So why wouldn't we say something in here about it. Many people got shoes on lock today effortlessly! I'm not sure why your mad or bitter about it. If anything, its one less competitor you gotta deal with online or in store (unless they greedy)... But this is what the game is now. Do I like it? No, but its the closest thing to normal or to the 90's/early 00's days cos all we gotta do is walk in the store on rd (10am-5pm), pay and walk out. S*#t you can still sleep in. Who wouldn't want that?

Son gets no love anywhere

This.

If I do secure an extra pair online I may just trade it, but it all depends on the leather.  I held the kid's version in hand yesterday and wasn't impressed.  Decent shoe, but the leather was stiff.  If the Men's version has softer leather then I will keep a 2nd pair if I'm lucky enough to secure a pair online.  If not, I'll be on the hunt for some 04's and keep these on ice for a bit.  We shall find out soon enough.

I feel the same as Airuphere23 no more Bs unless I've never owned the shoe. In this case I'm happy with my 04..extra pair for someone else.

Disagree...let's review

Concords - General release
Cement IVs - General release

For some (including myself), Playoff 12s > Cements...these will go fast and require game planning...and there will be people willing to pay reseller prices so the prices wont fall far if they do at all...the game has changed for a truly hot release...
    

The hype will not be as big as the cement 4s

you're forgetting that they cements hadnt been retroed since 1999. There are plenty of people who have already come through this thread saying how they're good on this release because their 2004s are still in tact. 

The anticipation of this retro <<<<< The anticipation of the cement 4 retro

  

Even though I agree, there were plenty of people saying they'll be passing on the Cement IV's because of the lack of Nike Air, but we all know how that went.

I figured ijapino would have the official thread up by now, but I guess it's not gonna happen this time.

im 25 years old and always wanted these kicks when they came first came out back in middle school. and beleive it or not, i still didnt get a pair back in 04

i havnt lined up for a piar of shoes for a while and this is my favorite shoe out of all of them

i tried that rsvp crap at work and no luck and i dont want any of these re-sellers to stop me

  

 

[bayarea23]

Did any of you Bay Area folks lined up for the wristbands at serramonte? If so, how big was the line?

I heard they get a lot of pairs over there... My boy went there at 11am on the RD for the cement 4s and was still able to cop a size 10 at finishline

If I had missed out on the rsvp system, I would line up tonight right after work.  These new resellers don't even sleep anymore.

I do admit that having all your shoe boxes have the same size looks cool, but I think I'd rather make sure all my shoes fit me just how I like it. All my stuff is 10-11, depending on how the shoe runs.

Same here all my shoes are 10.5-11. For Jordans, about 75% is size 10.5, 20% is size 11 and 5% is size 10. But in foamposites, I usually wear size 11, but got a couple of 10.5's. In air maxes, I wear size 10.5 but they feel a bit tighter than I expected. But the reason I do that is sometimes size 10.5 is gone then I have to go to size 11 and some instances size 10. For some reason, size 10.5 is one of the first sizes to fly off the shelves.

Unfortunately for us, 10.5 is the most popular size. However, Nike knows this so they usually produce more 10.5s than any other size.

Here in Bay Area, Cali... There's no point of camping out anymore. The police and security kicks you out at midnight and tell you to come back at 6am or 1 hour before the doors open.
