Official Saucony Originals / Retro Thread

I've camped out a packer shoes several times this summer....never seen that sort of caveat when it comes to lineup time. Hell, Alvin Purples were on a weekday and people were out there for two nights without any problem. 
 
 
From their blog:

(IN-STORE RELEASE RULES & REGULATIONS):
  • The Packer Shoes x Saucony Grid 9000 & Distinct Life x Packer Shoes “Ghost Camo Bear” t-shirt will launch in-store at 12PM NOON EDT this Friday – August 8th.

  • Line-up for this release will begin Friday morning @ 9am EST. NO EARLIER. Customers will be served on a FIRST COME, FIRST SERVED BASIS.
  • Anyone seen lining up prior to 9am Friday morning will be escorted off the premise, thus automatically forfeiting their chance to purchase.

But not sure if they enforce it or how strict they are. 
I wonder what fool would line up any earlier for this release? If you strike out at packer im sure it will be other shops getting these. They are a magic johnson no look PASS anyway

To anyone asking, honestly, not like there are gonna be an employees there overnight (or at any point early in the morning). Local police are quite friendly in Teaneck, would be surprised if they sent people packing. I still feel like people will show up after closing time. Definitely will be crowd at 6 or 7 am.  Either way, 9 am should be fine for whoever wants their pair (roughly the time I got there for Alvins - but they didn't enforce 1 pair per so #'s may be different...)
 
So whats everyone going for this weekend? :)

Deciding between Bodega and Packer, perhaps both...
 
 
Does anyone in here have an actual Snow Beach pullover? Or know someone who does? 

I know there are plenty of people that just got introduced to SB through this collab but I'm wondering if anyone kept one all this time or is just ballin' and picked one up

Wait--for real? Folk in here really don't know the history ??? 8o
 
Yeah that's kinda what I gathered, thanks man. Honestly I think I like the suede accent route they went for these, they really feel like they are meant to be beat on and hopefully I'll be able to do just that.
 
On the hunt for Mint sz 12. Missed out on Amazon restock so hope someone out there can help out.

@Pdigiti, I posted a few pages back that I returned a sz 12 of the mints and razz back to saucony.com. Check w/ them n see whussup. When I last tracked the package on 8/4/14, it was still enroute.
