Highly unlikely all release again. Desktop launch calendar has shown the same thing for each release.
 
NIKE should re-release the 9 with ALL the sizes.  Either way at 7pm I will be ready for whatever comes
 
 
So I had an absolutely terrible start to Mamba Day. I called every store in NYC yesterday to see if any would have the FTB XI physically in stock. Every place was doing lottery/raffle. But House of Hoops in Brooklyn was, according to a woman I spoke with on the phone, NOT doing a raffle. She tells me I should get there around 7:30 AM since the store opens at 8 AM and it's first come first serve. I've never camped for a shoe before, but this is the all-time holy grail for me. So I live in Harlem, and leave at 2 AM to arrive at 3 AM. No one is there. I sleep on the floor until 7:30 AM in the freezing cold. No one else is around. Red flags start to arise. 8 AM rolls around. No one is there. The store is not open. I sit around for another hour. 9 AM rolls by and a store associate comes by. I tell him I'm in line for the FTB XI and he says they did a raffle yesterday and they're all sold out already. Also said that the stores don't open until 10 AM. Perhaps I'm an idiot for believing this woman who I spoke with at House of Hoops. But I did call back three times yesterday to ensure the information was consistent - perhaps it was her who answered the phone each time, providing me with this wrong info. Anyways, sorry for the rant. I'm venting while waiting for my train back to Harlem. To the woman who gave me this information, either erroneously or out of malice -- I hope you know you ruined this day for me.
 
Should be the draw for the FTB XI only. Release them all again would be great I won't complain.

kobe store(pending charges) or FTL(OOS counter hits zero)?
 
I feel like Nike should have released them all at once imo. That way our chances to secure at least one pair would have been greater.
