Squadron 13's and a few other kicks also drop on that day. I also heard the hype on FJ's is really high. There will probably be a lineup, just don't know if its going to be big. If i can get my schedule at work changed on that day, I'll be lining up to get them. otherwise it will be a pass for me.

Wow never checked for a nike talk in canada... Usually go to the US side of things. Will try to contribute here since I know we in canada get less of everything and it costs more.
Never understood why nike dogs canada and we are practically the same as the US. Retail prices should be the same

that's one hypebeast right there. ahahahaha! We live in a City where people don't really care about kicks. We have a some sneakerheads but not enough to bother reselling. That dude was a straight clwon.
Anyone try buying a pair of Retro 3 '88 online today?

Yea man in my head I was like what a idiot! I just tried to get out as fast as possible I couldn't talk to him anymore. He doesn't realize when they release they are not rare anymore and the resale value wont be as high anyways. I cant stand store employees who have no clue about what they sell.
And yea I recently moved to edmonton and kijiji is so bare. Unlike toronto where you could find almost any shoe. Its good and bad I guess. Good cus I dont have stress getting shoes but horrible cuz if I need to trade there is no one

Yeah trading shoes here in Edmonton is pretty horrible. Most people buy to resell at a ridiculous price and not want to trade it even though they know that the shoes are not going to move. I bet 60% of the people lining up for kicks are just there to resell. I see adds on kijiji where sellers are saying sold out when in fact the shoes are still sitting at FTL. They trying to make 20-30 dollar profit on shoes that can be obtained easily.

Smh at the staff who said that at Foosh.
I've got to agree too regarding the resellers (here in Calgary though). Seen a dude trying to push Aqua 8.0's for $300 on Kijiji. Come on...

lmao at aqua 8.0s for $300. Im new to edmonton too Testify so I cant say but since I've been here it seems they get most of the major jordan and lebron releases in decent quantities. Kobes here and there, penny 5s, some Kds. As for the spots I only know champs, footlocker, foosh, Sport check. If there are more you guys can let me know
And I agree bonez reselling here is kinda stupid. Just leave the shoes in the store, most times they end up having to drop the price down to retail because no one is buying. I loved the fact that shoes are easier to get here an less tax than Toronto (13%) so it was a win win haha.

I thought it was march 23rd but that may be a placeholder date. I'd say either that day or near the end of February..I believe most footlockers that received most of the retros this past year will be getting the 88's as well. I cant speak for Edmonton, but here in Toronto even my small local footlocker is getting 25-30 pairs. The manager said almost every FTL would be getting them just the amount of stock is what the issue might be... I wouldn't worry too much, the thirst prob isn't as bad in Edmonton as it is in T.OAnyone know if the Jordan White Cement 88's would be hitting stores on March 23rd? EastBay and FL was a failure

Hey guys, I'm from Edmonton and I was talking to someone at the West Ed footlocker and they said they're "unsure" if they will even get the '88 retros in March. I'm gonna keep up with them every so often to see if info changes. Whatever info I can get from then I'll post up here.
They will be getting the Jokers and Crimsons if any of you are interested.

West Ed FTL will be getting them on March 23rd. it's on the email that they sent out last. They're just not sure how many pairs they are allocated. Unless something changed, they will get them for sure. Just in limited quantity
