Call different stores some do pre-order others don't

Footlocker is your best bet for pre-orders.
 
As far as I know, it's only Footlockers that do pre-order – even though Champs is part of the same organization (they're all a part of EastBay).

While it's true that us Canuckleheads miss out on too many releases to count, at least we get to pre-orders kicks that tend to cause commotion (rilly only the Concords thus far)...

QFT  I was told the exact same thing.  Also the 4's are a test for the Canadian market and EVERY foot locker store in Canada will get some stock and based on who sells what and how fast they will send the next batch of retros to the higher selling stores. 


This is all great news for the Canadian market!

Ken Hicks (COO & CEO of Foot Locker) was here in Edmonton this week checking out the retail spots.  Something tells me the Canadian market is finally gonna start getting their due and thats great news for us fiends

As of right now, pre orders are here to stay with Foot Locker and Champs is doing the opposite, no pre orders or holds....not even for staff!  First come first serve only
 
I pre-ordered a pair of WC IV last week, wondering if anyone knows if they're sold out on pre-orders yet? Looking to grab another pair

Didn't you pre-order?
 
Just wanted to post some information.

Check your nearest HOH locations for the Blake Griffin HD Supreme Home cw
As well as the Russell Westbrook HyperEnforcer
Both PE's should be on display as of yesterday.

It's great to see some PE's (that aren't Chris Bosh Hyperdunks lol).
Hopefully this is a good sign for sneakers in Canada

Lol, I think you'll be alright. Especially if you're going in relatively early on the first day.
It's those dudes that wait 3 or 4 days that run that particular risk.

Just got back from picking up my pair

They look real, real good.
White sockliner FTL but what can you do?

Overall, well executed by JB.
 
Copped at Champs square 1 this morning, got in line at around 8 (hella late), and luckily they still had my size (9) by the time it was my turn to purchase. Pretty decent sized line, nothing hectic though. Will definately pre order for the next major release (hopefully yeezys).
 
Not everyone, went to Champs Vaughan.. mad late. Did not know they opened up 7:30.. Got there 8:30..

I guess i get to keep my money.

Honestly you didn't miss much, got to see them a week before RD.
Didn't like what I saw, so I pass.

Don't worry if you really like these, I'm sure a deal will come around.

Down the road will probably do, but def will not give-in to these resellers with the crazy price they're selling it for...  I know that much.

I was in Toronto (downtown) when they release. There was a small line up at Champs and a few at Footlocker. My friends bought couple of pairs. But it sold out quickly.
