Am I the only one who looks at the "born on" date when u pick u a new shoe?

[youngsk8]

but isn't it just the tag that has the date on it? there's no telling when they sew that into the shoe right?

I've had 2 pairs of shoes made on my birthday. Pretty cool.

I show it to customers that ask about a warranty on the shoe. I tell them that Nike offers a two year warranty against wear and tear from this date... Otherwise I'll check it to see how close to release they actually make production models. That way if you saw someone with them months ago, you can gauge if they got them early or if they got a hold of a sample pair.

Like my cement 3s said they was made in August 2010 and the shoe came out Januaray 2011 sooooooooo what happens in between that time frame?

I would love to know if anybody knows how it works

I think that's how people like Kanye n Wale get there shoes so early cause I know Kanye doesn't wear a sample size 9

CLEARLY they were in a 5+ month wear test duration. Why else would they be creased so bad when we opened them up? Its obvious..
