I really don't mean to cause hype but with these packs, since there isn't a whole lot of advertising for them, NT was really just competing againstother knowledgeable sneaker bloggers and NT itself. Shoe store employees are spreading the word, and the general public and every "hood" across thenation is getting informed about these and lining up and reserving. People that know nothing about them other then that they are "hot coloredJordan."
That being said, reserve you're packs, have a spot on "lock," get them held, do whatever to get a stress free release, but get them if you wantthem. They're going to become increasingly difficult the more the public is aware. Also, the 9's run smaller, so more then likely you're going tohave either small 9's and just right 14's or just right 9's and big 14's. I'm a size 12 and I had to sacrifice the 14's just to getthat perfect size in the 9's, which ended up being a 13. I would just get DS 2002 9's but the cracking and the fact that this just an updated versionis the reason I ended up getting them.

So I went to Jamaica, NY, and I tried on the XIV's, walked around in them a bit, and my God, these suck. It looks like JB took a retro XIV and spray paintthem manually. Pure crap.

They're on PYS right now but for $379. I don't think I paid that much for the first Countdown Pack. I'm definitely going to pass on these butwanted to give the heads up to those who will cop.

This pack will hardly be available in my area
. Some of the storemanagers were telling me they only got around 20-24 packs and people will definitely be lined up early to make sure they get this. I'll try my luck withbuying these online I guess

Looks like everbody has the same idea...get rid of the XIV's. People rat on the XV's and XIX's being ugly, and the XIV's are right up there interms of ugliness

^^^^^I actually like the XIV's in general but the XIV's in the pack are like a reject version of the last shots, which a lot of people have. I'mpassing on the pack for sure. Only interested in getting a new pair of IX's but only for a good price. I'm not going to stress over it tho unless Ihappen to stumble on a deal.

Copped my pair yesterday, they are ok only complaint is there is glue like crazy but thats how ALL Jordans are now and they look tried on.I'm good I have never made a complaint about the quality of J's because i'm still gonna love them regardless but for this much money it's like.
Just check your pairs in and out, make sure both pairs are in the pack,good luck people because i'm staying home tomorrow. I have like 6 more pairs to go for the month, hopefully I don't get any... for now. And the14's look crazy imo I don't know what yall are talking bout' much better than the 9's that they come with, and the 9's are like my favoriteJ they are horrible compared to the past but we all know that.

I think it's gonna be pretty tough to even get $150 for them. I'm thinking $130 shipped at the most.
