Black Infrared VI's returning in 2014. NO GM TALK!

[asiatic204]

Anyone from Minnesota here? I'll be in town for the weekend.

Going in already expecting it to be a write off at Mall of America.

doesn't have to to you, that's why it's MY logic. And i believe it does make sense. U live in Atlanta? Or ever tried coppin Js in Atlanta?

I have not. Nor have I ever tried to purchase a sneaker in store (or at least ones that are in demand). I'm a good 45 minutes away from any decent stores so I stick with online. For me I use Eastbay (and Nike on occasion). I don't try much more beyond that.

I use the same. Always with success. I'm only 5-10 mins from a mall and multiple others nearby and a Niketown and I STILL choose to cop online cause the streets are so corrupt down here.

Are you going to paint them like the black infrareds? This is like the leather version i can wear in the rain.

yeah this is my final product. I wanted it to be like a custom I saw ranocustom make. And I figured since I had a extra pair of the white infrared I would go for it. Peep the pic of the original concept. and they are wearable on the rain, wore them last week and they came out fine. View media item 1265656

Yeah im just getting started up back in this shoe game and in here in ATL also, Just moved here and just been ordering online from NDC. I guess I will learn all the spots to go to in case I have to do a store pickup. I would always do online because I dont have to be the person to post on Instagram to say I got the shoe on the first day though...

 

[Lunar_Loner]

Imma be real salty if I can't get em, but it won't be the end of the world, it's some tims I wanna id anyway so I guess I'll go head and order them...

 

[killersherbert]

agreed. Repped. You'll see how bad it is out there if u ever have to hit the streets. They've gotten so bad they don't even do FCFS no more it looks like at any FTL in atl

 

[tee00max]

agreed. Repped. You'll see how bad it is out there if u ever have to hit the streets. Hell I even save money if I can get through on EB with the no tax and free shipping.

Yeah thats true, I will keep rocking with online because I dont have to be all in those streets man.

cumberland (they were good but hearing stories, but the shady dude doesnt wear my size so i still get mine)

stonecrest (Yea them WTL and most other releases are gone before the tix are even in the bag bruh....) they all working together there i know from insde 

Primeter (they seem to still be honest to a point and there staff will tell you head of time when in line if something is sold out)

not even going to meation 

arbor place......... no one goes there way to far they may have the best luck

I wish it wasn't so corrupt in Atlanta or id go out in the city and buy shoes but they're all corrupt and I just aint dealing with any of them no more. If I strike out online then so be it but I'm not going to any stores and deal with all kinds of chaos with folks I don't know or like, when I can easily cop from the comfort of my home. I use to not know how to get through online but I've figured it out now.

What's the secret bro. Tell me your ways

I buy almost exclusively online on release day but will be entering a few raffles for these at nearby footlockers.  For those that have entered raffles before, do they "run out" of tickets?

If they're giving out tickets beginning at 9am, would it be a good idea to be there at 9 or can I stroll in a few hours later?

 

[Mamba4life]

All the stores are giving guaranteed tickets around my way(N.O.) Even the little mall on the Northshore is giving away guaranteed tickets on Sunday morning. Is it safe to assume they made a ton of these things? I was expecting the usual raffle BS.

 

[wootonralph]

my local spots said they're still doing it next monday & tuesday 
[/quote

Signed up for footlocker raffles in two malls near me yesterday and drove about 35 miles to one HOH in boca just to be told that theyre not doing raffles on that day-- theyre doing fcfs on this coming sunday. Dam why not just follow standard procedure. Waste of gas.

 

[fresh out dabox]

if youre in ny raffles don't start till the 23 which is this sunday

By Sunday morning I'd say it's safe to assume that word will have gotten around that said spots are doing guaranteed tickets. Treat this as you would a FCFS release day pick up. If people in your area turn out heavy during FCFS pick ups then expect them to turn out heavy for the guaranteed tickets as well and plan accordingly.
