Official Travis Scott x Jordan Thread ...

NTNY pairs being high may be a decent sign but not for NTNY :lol: That SNKRS pass has to be one of the worst possible ideas ever. **** is garbage.

Lets be honest has nike ever had a good idea on how to release limited shoes for their brick and mortar

FCFS--------- fights and campers and ghost chairs and honestly a public nuisance (Not really fair to people have jobs and or lives)
Twitter reserve crap------- rise of the bot boys and reserve bots (there was no way to win and people would win in Alaska for new york and say there were practicing smh...)
Random accounts winning------ i guess seems they are experimenting more with that, but last thing they want is shoes left over so the down side is that, the next down side is random accounts with reserve sucks
snkrs stash------- yea OK ole scavenger hunt which kinda turns in the same safety issues FCFS.
snkrs pass---- trash cause its botted (though i won multiple passes in atl)

honestly making people come to the store and fill out an ipad (old yeezy Adidas format before that trash reserve app Adidas put out) is one of the best ways. multiple days, yes there is a line and yes there is a wait, but hey you wanna bring 100 people with you go ahead. either way Nike controls it for the most part and its hard to exploit unless you bring a lot of bodies and honestly that isn't an exploit its just numbers.

At this point if its online its going to get exploited point black. only thing fair is instore ran by Nike. which they ain't going to do cause it takes time to many people and a waste of money, also even with snkrs pass the shoes going to sell so who cares

can anyone else think of a more fair way?
 
In store raffle but as you said waste of money and they don’t want ppl fighting in the store over a raffle
 
Are these going to dip lower than the current price of $797 in size 13 in yall's opinion?? Thanks

unless you have 700 plus to spend just let the dream go if you do then you should be able to buy if you strike at the right time post release. "purely ball parking"

also no one has no idea its impossible to speculate unless you just want to make your self feel better with the random opinions of strangers on the internet.
no one knows what a free market holds in terms of cost of a product that has unknown supply and high demand. so for anyone to extrapolate any number based what is currently known is full of it. just use basic economics


if you know current price and max supply hasn't been achieved it would be some what ok to assume price will fall. but how much no one can tell you that honestly. just have 7-8 bills ready to go and your fine.

big facts same thing people cutting and all those people in your store not buying anything and making the shopping experience worse for those who do wanna shop.... i mean they could use a different location, but in places like NYC space cost way to much money for something that will sell either way

Guccishades Guccishades Yuuup.. I definitely agree. I would say the better way is exactly what FTL and FA and Champs have been doing. I literally have bought 90% of everything since 2017 till present from them and a lot of those items were heat be it a GR or a 'limited GR' like 1's. Only issue is they dont have enough stores out there so they would have to bring that inventory up.

At the end of the day they're stupid and they only care about continually driving the perception of being the hottest thing out. I really believe this is all purposefully done for the good of the business NOT it's consumers.
 


they know their shoes so trash they cant even move them lmao. ole willy wonka face.... i gotta drop a 100 for hope to get the chance to buy the TS i rather keep my hundo and put it toward resell than end up with some dumpster juice lows and no TS. also how do i know what size imma get.

like if i buy a 14 in the lows do i get a golden ticket for a 14 and if i buy a 10 i can only get at a 10 in the TS
 
*****WARNING***** LONG POST INCOMING
Sup y'all,
Got my authentic pair from the TS drop from his birthday, had a homie that got a fake pair (for educational purposes).

Had to do the comparison.. here are a lot of pics.

In summary (what to look for in fakes)
  • Embossed TS logo in the back is way more defined on authentics
  • Outside swoosh placement with the 90degree stitching is off on fakes, stitching is usually farther away from the swoosh on fakes
  • Wings logo is noticeably smaller on the fakes
  • Yellow midsole a different shade on the fakes
  • fakes come with white laces instead of creamier laces
  • fake boxes come with $160 price tag
Everything else is pretty damn close.. i didn't even bother taking pics of the size tags.. my bad.

Onto the pics! (laced are fakes)

i agree just make an app and force people to check in with codes idc if you tie a min spending limit to it we all shop at Nike. and for limited stuff require a check in at store tied to your account on your phone and keep it pushing. yes it will be exploited but FTL has seen great success with their system. i think they plan to upgrade or change aspects of it though? not sure on that last part?

Thank you for making this the wing logo, laces, and embossed logo on the back are dead giveaways.
 
Y’all are asking for the impossible. The problem is every neckbeard chubby boy down to middle school cry baby for some reason like athletic footwear. Until that ends (WONT) then nothing will change no matter what’s in place
 
those fakes ^^^ i appreciate the post but i got a feeling that there will be way better fakes. im sure there are fakes with the 175 retail on boxes because 160 is a dead giveaway.
