Official Air Jordan 1 Retro High Thread Vol: Best Model/Thread

[wolfman928]

I haven’t successfully done any Foot App reservations since the FLX program started, I really miss the old system! sS how does this work, if I hit multiples at different stores, I’m only allowed one pick up, even if they’re different sizes? & if I only pick up the 1 pair, or if I don’t hit, are these XPoints returned? Somebody school me real quick.

This hurt to watch a few months back, considering these are a grail for me, it was nasty

Once in a while you can find a decent deal at Stadium Goods. They run 10%-15% off promos a few times a year, like for this 4th of July weekend.

Late 2018 I caught these for a less than what they were going for on StockX.

1 pair per store (3 pairs max between FTL, FTA, Champs), 6 if they all have GS.

Points are lost regardless. Really it's the same as before except you're basically paying to enter because the points were earned on purchases. I don't know how successful the raffle system is now though. I haven't won one but I haven't entered anything at full HS minus the Flints, and that release was ruined because stores didn't even get them in time. The old one was like a 98% success rate for me.

Purple suede toes

 

[vinotwofour]

looks odd half suede and half leather

 

[marikomorose]

could've been a great shoe

 

[ireign]

Get your money back

 

[DonRafa]

Yea confusing, maybe 70% leather 30% suede

 

[vinotwofour]

I think its because the purples are different color in the suede and the leather. Or try making a purple gradient lol

S Splash_Golden what grade sandpaper did you use? I saw this video, pretty informative.

Not worth it I've entered every release full headstart on all 3 and struck out everytime. 1 time I won off waitlist on 11 lows that just releases but that's it out of like 10 releases on new system. I keep entering cause I got points to blow but yeah its weird

I actually used the same steps as in that tutorial haha. 220 and finished off with 320 until you’re satisfied with the shade of purple.

Wouldn't do this to my purps but might try this on a different shoe. Maybe an old AF1 or something.

Ngl these look kinda wack on feet. I just want a gray chicago that's not a mid top.

NYC to Paris would be the closest thing to a grey Chicago.

and them joints rub away fairly easily compared to the original lance mountains lol nike toying with my emotions.

 

[heatseeker23]

Is there shoe store doing lottery for the smoke bone?

 

[debso]

Need more pics of smoke greys with white laces on foot...

 

[utahman130]

It’s funny how Nike gave us the grey mids before the smoke grey highs. Thought they’d pull that after people struck out on the high release.

This is literally my experience too. Waitlist on the 11's and everything lol. Used to hit like 99% at my Champs on the old system. Like I can count on one hand the amount of drops I missed before the FLX switchover. I don't get it.

 

[truenike81]

Glad I got my bred 11s before that FLX crap

 

[wolfman928]

Damn, FLX is really bad like that?! I rarely missed on the old system, I could probably count on 1 hand the number of shoes I bricked on while that was in play per year. Honestly it’s a mix of not too many good releases this year & then COVID hitting which really had me saving this year. So I’ve yet to really know my way around this new FLX system & actually try & secure things. All Star week was a bust, trying to figure things out & not having enough points, so I’ve only purchased the Royal Toes online, we’re halfway through the year, any other time I’d be in the double digits by now. Tie Dyes were a disaster, but I do like these smoke greys, & the ugly duckling Biohacks are gonna happen as well
