Yooo I remember buying the originals back in the 90s at Copelands.
I might have to grab these since I'm going to China at the end of February.
Haven't copped Js in years.
They still hard to get?
What are the chances of grabbing a pair if I go on Nike.com to cop a pair right when it hits midnight on release date?
Oh dope... never been to fine china. Will bo peep it one day for sure. Just make sure you done brought some masks cuz their rendition of the ozone sheath is basically depleted with all that smog and polluciones.
But yea... as for the CNY 12's:
SNKRS with their low inventory/fake sellouts is some bullshiit. I actually haven't been fortunate on their hyper/quick strike releases for some months now. LOL.
Since they cum in a full size family run (indicator of mass production in mostest cases)… I want to say you should be fine.
Doubt they will reach the main Nike.com page, you may have to acquire the SNRKS app if you ain't got it already... if not, the footsites such as the likes of footlockers, eastbae or champs (cramps) sports should carry them.
And releases aren't at midnight any more. They are almost always 7 a.m. Pacific Stanley Time
If not, you can already cop for under retail on stockx or kickscrew (got my pair for 241 shipped, not bad when it will be 275 after tax for me if wait until release date).
My pair arrives this week so I'll post back shots for ya...
Btw, you want a good pair of Nike Jordan Air Michaels to buy, I highly suggest you allocate your funds to a pair of the Tinker Hatfield White Red 3's.
Aesthetically, they are a god-send (I love that pronounced, partially cut/constructed swoosh on the side, the NA on the back is always a win), but the funny thing is these shoes are just as, if not, cozier than most nike running shoes (more comfy than air max 270's and right up there with the element react juice 87's)
My assessment is that nike knows darned damned diddly well that the vast majority of homosapiens that wear retro Jordan shoes do so for casual purposes primarily, playa pimpin'.
