They all have smart phones
pardon me just got out of work, that thought didn't cross my mind since the 13 year old me is anxious about this release.
I had that same thought about school, but then my son called me from his cell and reality set in. I'm just mad that I work 3rd shift and have to get up at noon to try and order them. For some reason I kept thinking they were coming out Saturday
Well the same thing pretty much happened with the Kamikaze II. Most didn't expect them to move, Packer sold out, others followed, and now not only are OG colorways pretty much sold out but retro+ colors too. Now they're reselling for $160-$220 pending colorway. No sneaker is safe these days. Don't sleep if you really want these.
I see your point, but these are 2 very different models in regards to both form & popularity that you're comparing. I was in grade school when both models originally released. However, I remember the Kamikazes being "cutting" edge and loud to fit Kemp's style of play while the Grant Hill's were simply a clean and competitively priced sneaker. Most expected the Black/White/Green colorway to move well as it was the first to launch in over decade. As for the other colorways, FNL still has an array of sizes up for grabs months after release. Not sure where they are selling for $160-$220 as the last BLK/WHT/GRN colorway sold for just over $157 + Shipping while other colorways are selling below retail as most everyone that wanted them used the coupon codes on FNL. (If you didn't get the shoe in your size or color, then you truly slept on that release.) I've seen very few hit over $200 that, more or less, usually ended-up being re-listed. Regardless, it's not hard to argue that the FILA 96 model is/was not as popular as the Kamikaze II...
they dont go live till 12 est.....
i wonder what's cheaper, $90$ + $8 shipping or $100 + free shipping. I'm sure they do tax
it all evens out, thats why the are gong for $90... You can use the 20% off on them though..
they send you one when you sign up for an account...
Regardless, I might stand corrected as these have picked-up some steam over the past few days. But as I said before, I still think they'll sell mildly well as these shoes cater to a particular audience to whom, I believe, like the shoe, but won't jump over mountains for nor pay over retail for. (i.e. This WHOLE thread is only 18 pages long from it's inception.) They might be gone from a few online sites, but it's currently 8:15 AM here and no one at my spot is camping from what I'm told. I'll check it out after a few meetings I have today, but I don't think more than half will be gone...
