The owner might have an overseas connect and some how managed to buy them in bulk. Cuz most mom n pop get them at least 2 weeks to a week early and sell them to their usual cust. And big chain stores hold them until RD. That's just what I "know". Someone correct me if I'm wrong..

Daver, you seem pretty spot on. Thats the way it works here in NYC. All the moms n pops get there kicks early, but usually no more than three weeks(start selling 2 weeks early). They dont publicize that they get them early, they just sell to the same dudes that come in on a mothly basis and know theyll release early. Years back, Footlocker got caught releasing jordan and launch kicks early, and they lost their account. I was just entering highschool. Stores or chains like that, have a much higher chance of getting caught, because word of mouth travels much faster for chains
