Ed, it was posted on the website! I am as I'm typing this looking at my tracking number and I have a good feeling it will ship out later today after all. It's already shipped out according to UPS site. So much for that UPS theory...

It's probably due to the busy holiday season that UPS is picking packages up. Under normal circumstances I would agree with you Ed. Not on this one though~

UPS did work on Saturday. My sister works for UPS in Hodgkins, IL and even though she was off, her work cell phone was ringing off the hook with peopleasking her questions. Packages WERE processed on Saturday. Now as for what happened after they were processed, i can't say, but i was out at her house onSaturday and she said that packages were still moving through the system on Saturday morning. So its possible.

What type of paint do you guys suggest i use to paint the grey portion of the shoe black??

why when the OGs had a grey midsole?

in other news, I copped my pair yesteray thanks to my mother being willing to drive me and pay for them as an earyl christmas present. For me i'd say itwas in between an easy cop and a difficult cop, because I had to go to 2 different Shoe City's to get my pair. The first store I called in to verify ifthey still had a size 12 and they told me they had 2 and when I got there the manager had bought the last 2 pairs

i was pissed, but I found another Shoe City and they looked like they had a FSR.

i had an easier time getting the black 5's and the ice blue x's than these. On a positive note, the 8's are mad comfortable and the quality ofthese were very good. good job JB

Easy cop on finishline.com...My second favorite shoe of the year behind the 3's

 

[ctrlofbodynmind]

what about red laces in the play offs just throwing it out there

 

[putting in work]

Hope Finishline don't play me on my order.

I'm going to be tight.

 

[cucumbercool]

[jhobson5]

In CO it was an easy cop. I got a pair on release day. Wore them and knew i had to get another one so i went back and they still had all the sizes this was theeasiest cop in a minute. I went ahead and got the 15LS too did anyone else do that?

I have a UPS account and they sent us a flyer that gives them their "holiday schedule" and it says right on it that the last day to ship packages and get them by the 24th was Friday the 21st. Alot of times if they have the ups software when they package up a package before it is picked up they are issued a tracking number and it will say something on the tracking page like "shipping info recieved" or something like that but until you start seeing locations being logged then it hasn't shipped yet. If the tracking says it was recieved from shipper and then has a destination scan at the UPS hub it was picked up from then it's been shipped and in UPS's hands but if their are no locations listed yet then they don;'t have it. UPS updates the packages at every location, it's a much better tracking system then USPS... Theirs sucks!!!! Like I said good luck on getting them tomorrow so you can wear them on Tuesday... if not you'll have them by 10:30am on Wed and some shipping loot back in your pocket..

Well they lied to you then Edward! I recevied my pairs today and I guess this obviously means UPS does deliver over holiday weekends. Dope shoes by theway in person.

 

[08fellaz]

will cop wednsday they're still everywhere.
IMO these are less appealing to me with a grey midsole.
How come some pics of the OG's have a black midsole? I.E. like the OG vs. Retro thread? Just Wonderin

Not really, these are in the top quality tier of retros released in the past few years. These are better quality than the Aqua's IMO. If you want tolist off some recent retro's that exceed the quality of these please feel free.

For me it wasn't about them selling out because i know i could of got em from the mall but when i signed on here and saw the 20% off finishlinecode then thats why i bought 2 pairs, $239 shipped for 2 pairs. Im getting them after Christmas but i can live with that
