No doubt, I will put some pics of the shorts and shoes up as soon as I get in the house. Shorts are NICE! i can see potential in matching them with the Valentines kobes, black and red kd v's, and some other shoes. They look very versatile.

Oh, and about my experience with Nike Dallas...
I walk in and wait in line and I see this guy (who I think was a manager) yelling at this customer who RSVP'd with two names. The customer said he just wanted one pair, and the manager was yelling that if he ever pulled that again he was "NEVER GETTING ON THE LIST AGAIN"
I stand around and finally I go up to claim my pair. After I buy it, I had to make a return on some Fire Red V's (They gave me the wrong size) and some BHM Bron X's (They were a bit too loose). I've NEVER had a problem returning ANYTHING at Nike. The manager sees what I'm returning and flips yelling that "YOU CAN'T JUST BUY AND RETURN LAUNCH ITEMS LIKE THIS." I was like dude one of them was ya'll's fault and the other didn't fit me...the **** am I supposed to do? He yells that I "won't get on the list next time"
Basically, **** that guy. I'll be calling Nike tonight to complain and I'll try to stick to NDC releases only from now on.

Launch day..whoop tee doo.
Since when is it a crime to return a shoe on RD? Specially if its too loose..
I swear, the employees at these shoe stores get big balls when big shoe RD's comes around. smh
You just work at a shoe store and sell shoes. Come back down to earth.

Id maybe try to find a district manager or something versus calling Nike. Dude def needs to be reprimanded for treating customers like that. And how is he going to make sure you don't make the list? Just goes to show the RSVP is corrupt. They can pick n choose who makes it.
Some footlockers it's new policy to not accept returns on launch day product.
Resellers ruined that one...

Simply put: because it f***s with stores' inventory. It's been FTL policy for a while now; you can thank the resellers for it's implementation. Basically, Nike/JB expects you to sell your size runs of retros the same day/weekend they drop & with 0 returns (if it's defective, we call Nike then process a refund). There's way too many people leaving lines without shoes & you're kind of being a douche by copping then returning it later in the day because it wasn't your size/you changed your mind. Try it on before you buy in the store & be done with it. You wouldn't buy a pair of jeans or a jacket without trying it on first, right?

$200 on eBay, seller will barely make their money back, even possibly taking an L.
I paid almost 148 on Ndc. Figure 20 shipping, that's 168. After 25+ PayPal/eBay fees that's almost 200 right there.
I think dudes would be better off messaging sellers and try to help each other out and deal off of eBay.

they're still "sought-after on release day" shoes. if dude brought the 2 pairs of kicks back the same day he bought em, the people working could move the shoe as well
if he ordered them on NDC? he should've called them to run a stock locate on the "new" size he wanted & worked with them. people gotta realize that when you return stuff you bought from an online store to a retail store, the employees there are NOT gonna go out their way to find your size (technically, you're walking in there and giving them a LOSS in sales).

Idk what harsh shoe stores u shop at, but Ive never had a problem returning/exchanging an online shoe at the retail store. Always been 100% customer service.
Not saying your'e assessment is wrong, just never came across an employee who didnt go check for my correct size or stock locate. Always 100% customer service.
I do see what youre saying tho.
And from having worked at FL , Ive never witnessed that type of behavior.

^ didn't mean it in a completely literal sense; just speaking on what the majority of sales associates would do. if I get the vibe that the person returning the item ISN'T a reseller, I will def go out of my way to help em find their size.
