Viejas told me to call back in an hr and a half, forgot the reason they gave me.

[bruza]

Any updates on the White/ Navy Uptempos?

 

[bryonrussellhustle]

Spacejams restock in many Niketowns, but no holds or phone orders for the next 48 hours though.

Seattle and Denver for sure and Vegas I think.

Someone hook me up with a 9.

 

[anomaly]

Crap. I just called the South Chicago store, and the 30% is only going on for the hash wall. Guess that means no Hyperize for me.

[703soop.freestylesessio...]

seems like the quickstrikes are actually releasing like a quickstike for the 49.99

Nike Outlet Allen, TX

Jordan AJF3 (White/University Blue) - $59.99 - 30% - plenty of sizes on hash wall

Zoom BB II (White/Black/Yellow) - $49.99 - FSR

DT Max '96 (White/Black) - $59.99 - 30% - plenty of sizes on hash wall

DT Max '96 (White/Red) - $59.99 - 30% - plenty of sizes on hash wall, except the 13 I have been looking for for a long time in this color

Lots of other decent shoes that I can't remember, but they were all size 11 or smaller so I didn't really pay too much attention.

I called Gurnee Mills and the guy said they had none of these...were there a lot left?

 

[airberg]

When yall say they are "b-grades", are they labeled like that on the box or something? Or do you just know they are b-grades because the quality isobviously bad?

 

[bigsupa]

^^the quality is flawless at times...and the size tag is the only thing labeled with a B

 

[anomaly]

Sometimes the quality difference is god awful (i.e. lace locks, and even some laces missing on the Raging Bull Vs, horrible yellowing, etc), but from the onesI've looked at, the b-grades are no worse than today's "a-grades".

I picked up a pair of b-grade nubuck XIIs during the F&F sale, and theylooked no different than the ones I got from NDC's clearance sale just a couple weeks prior.

Someone with more experience can chime in if I'm wrong, but I think the only ways to tell them apart is that they usually don't come in their originalboxes (i.e. Air Jordans come in a generic orange box instead of the original JB box), or some of them actually have "b" marked on the inside label.

About what? I'm referring to the Hyperize not being on the hash wall, therefore, no 30% off on those. I'm not willing to pay $90 forthem, thus "no Hyperize for me".

Ask for Robin, she's very helpful and nice. I think she might be an NTer. My total with shipping and tax came out to 85.17, can't beat that.

Big Ups to Robin from Gurnee.

Truth. B-grades use to have noticeable flaws and go for dirt-floor basement cheap in B/S couple years ago... now the differences are minimal ifany. You simply need to know the <50> formula Nike uses for quality control and its easy to see that most b-grades in truth aren't distinguishablefrom A-grades

I didn't like re-reading that . . . .

Thanks for the info. I was curious to know if they were actually marked in some fashion. I guess I just have never come across any b-grades at the outlets Ihave been to.

B-Grades vary a lot. My Raging bull 3m V's from gurnee look great, even though they are "b grade". They only have some misplacedsitching and the rest of the shoe is fine. No yellowing either. The tag is still marked B-Grade though. So yea i guess the only way you could tell is bylooking at the beat up orange box
