Dopest pics of the Philippines ive seen up there. That sole is clear as hell in that shot. Reminds me of our front door. Nothing but sandals in front of the house. Lol
 
 
Yeah, it sucked.  I thought it was a repeat of the Concord release; ultimately it was worse. Both releases I looked at the computer screen and no sizes showed. I kept pressing add to cart on my phone since sizes were visible, but of course absolutely nothing happened. From there, I came to NT to see if I was the only person encountering the same which obviously I wasn't. I had already given up, was just fortunate to see a tweet and from there they immediately added to cart.

BTW, nice avatar, that S is funny lol
Same thing happened to me except i didnt give up on the mobile website cause the fact that it displayed sizes and i was able to select it gave me hope in a way lol desktop wasn't even displaying the sizes for me but waking up so early and losing an extra hour of sleep and having to go to work after  so i wasn't just gonna give up empty handed lol i kept clicking add to cart then all of a sudden i was waiting in line for like 5 secs then it was in my cart

Thanks was looking for the mario 1up mushroom and came across that and thought it was cool :D
 
So Nike decided to test out a new system on the Kobe's :lol

Man I am glad I had already mentally prepared to not even have these, because I didn't think this would be a stateside release.

I admire/salute people who rocks their kicks and just not after resell. [emoji]128079[/emoji]

I agree

Not one of the, I hate all EM's unless they're extremely limited

repped :Nthat
 
Hi, new poster here, longtime lurker, old sneakerhead from Barcelona. I was curious to check out the rush to buy the "Premiums" here in Europe this morning, well, as someone said, that was fast!. NINE minutes fast to be exact to sold out at NDC Europe. Way faster than the low Jordan XI "Concords" recently.

Concords had tons of pairs and was a general release. These were limited and only on nike.com and at some house of hoops

Don't get your hopes up :/, I called a store and the clerk was like "you're not getting them"

Those words hurt me, lol.
We need to work together man.   Lets get a dialogue going.  I am in Gso and hit up the HOH in Winston and FTA here all the time.  Called yesterday to get the info on release details at the HOH and they told me FCFS.  Had no luck online, even with me and the bae trying hard on ALL devices, only got in line after about 10-15 min after release and by that time they were sold out.  I had to head to work for court at 9 though so I couldn't go anywhere after that strike out...

Fortunately, the boo is a lifesaver and hustled out the door to the HOH before I was even ready to head to work around 835 and got to the HOH in time to scoop me an 11.  Wanted an 11.5 (true size) but think I can work with these!  Gotta love that dedication!  She even got my FTL rewards points applied via my phone number!  Really wanted these and happy I was able to cop.  Appreciate her driving 30-45 away for the CHANCE to get them.  May have some pics coming later!!!
 
To all the people complaining "why did they have to use it on a limited release"...

It's cause if it was a regular, non hyped release, they wouldn't be able to assess the damage being done directly to the servers right when the clock hits 0.

Good job on nike.

You released a mediocre product but hyped it up with a premium name.

Majority of you hated the lows but now what? They're premium and you want them?

lol glad u didn't get them. No hate but don't be a damn bipolar sneakerhead based on hype of a product.
 
Struck out on my phone this morning when I couldn't add to cart. Should have kept trying. Really wanted these but won't pay over retail. Congrats to those who copped and will rock them.

Yeah, I know, but that's a new trend in Europe. Two years ago you could buy Retro Jordans, not to mention new Kobes right on the spot with no hassle at all. I've seen many shoes that you guys wanted badly being way overlooked in Barcelona. As a matter of fact I found recently two pair of DS Kobe VI for under retail. It's a football town...well until recently sneaker wise. Now every release it's craziness all around.
 
I actually like all Ems tbh in this order.
Popart
Crimsons
Easters
Bruce lees
Premium ( the only reason I would cop because I'm filipino and hype) but last on the list for me.
 
The Sparks (8s) not releasing in the states, that hurt...hurt reeeal bad. This one, not so much.


I actually had two cats on eBay message me multiple times dropping their price after I inquired about the EM Philippines. $300 to $275 to $250. Hell, I didn't even think they were worth the $20 increase for retail. Did I want them? Yeah...but I can let this one go.
