Got mah grapes

The leather is of decent quality, good effort by Nike

I am thinking to get them. Not sure. The Red version will be out this Summer, right? I mean the German Nike Store shows the red variant as a option, so I hope I did not miss them...

 

[MarkMan]

Got my grapes. <3

 

[Hypertrooper]

Reading some posts in this thread about the Grapes, I have to say I live in Germany. They are still available in my size and up for sale for 6 hours already. I hope the Air Jordan V Fire Red will be available here in Germany.

 

[ryuen]

Thought the Grape V's would distract people from the Digi Floral Janoskis, but there were already 25-30 people in line at my local skateshop (510 Skateboarding) =(

IF YOU SEE THESE IN A 9.5 or 10, PLEASE GET AT ME!

 

[Mr.Fresh]

Any other good sites to try for the Grapes? I'm sure ill get then sometime this week.

 

[SUPARSTARX]

Just got my order in on Eastbay, waiting for a confirmation email... hope it goes through properly.

[Mr.Fresh]

I've been trying easy bay for the past 30 mins. Ughhhh this is the royals all over again.

I just kept trying to add to cart. It's not "sold out" yet

 

[captmcblack]

It's basically impossible to get these fucking things unless you win the lottery or you miraculously get in at exactly 8am on websites which may or may not work. Struck out on the royals, probably these too.

I'm SALTY right now.

Same here and when I hit check out it gets stuck on processing.

 

[oyoshimaru]

Finally got through on eastbay for my size and finishline for my friend.

 

[SUPARSTARX]

I got the grapes on Eastbay at 10:40am est. That's 3 hours after I woke up trying to get the items in cart at 8am est on the dot.

 

[Bread]

damn i wish i had the money for the grapes, those might be my favorite jordans.

The Fire Reds are coming out end-August, yep. The quality on the Grape retro is pretty good, so I suppose it comes down to whichever colorway you prefer. Personally, the Grapes are my childhood grails so I could never pass these up.

 

[Spiderjericho]

This wasn't anything like the Royals. I was standing in line for the shoe and was able to buy a pair online. You just have to be patient, know the options and be persistent.

These will restock.

And I like the pattern on the Jankowskis just not the shoe.

And I'm definitely going to get the fire red part 2.

Also, the Lebron X Re Entry were apparently a limited GR. They had more grapes than Lebrons.

 

[Slizz]

No luck getting Grapes, didn't camp out though, almost had a pair on Eastbay but fucked up right at the last second. Server didn't respond or something.

Got my Nike Free 5.0's previously posted, gonna have to return them. I hate shoes with no tongue and force you in to a boot/booty type thing.

Gonna just exchange them via Eastbay for these:

They actually have a tongue.

Decent bet it will restock the tuesday the black grapes come out.

 

[alba]

I got myself a pair of these yesterday

I'm happy with them and I absolutely love the colors

 

[Spiderjericho]

The ones who didn't get them. Were you waiting on your favorite website at 0800? I had two tabs opened on my cell phone, one for Finishline, the other for Nike. Nike.com is definitely difficult with the cheaters but Foot Locker, East Bay and Finishline are all pretty fair.

 

[SUPARSTARX]

Grape 5's are up

http://www.endclothing.com/nike-air-jordan-v-retro-grape.html

Just got a second pair. Get them before they're out.

 

[oc]

Yeah, got a pair too.

 

[SUPARSTARX]

And they're gone!

 

[SUPARSTARX]

yo ullll

 

[oyoshimaru]

This release was too easy, I can only hope the black toe release is similar.

 

[SUPARSTARX]

Did it have anything to do with how the online orders were handled or how much more pairs of these were produced?

They made the right amount of pairs to keep a lot of us happy. Similar to the fire red january release.

 

[whatsinaname]

Took 'em out for the first time today. Several passersby commented on them, so I guess that's cool.

Shouldn't have entered this thread. Just bought these (found them at Nordstorm Rack, thanks for the pointer. Not on clearance though.) and found two other pairs I want.

 

[Spiderjericho]

Not sure about those numbers but it was definitely a general release. This was a much tougher release than the reds. You could walk into stores the same day or after and buy a pair of those.

The red also restocked several times thanks to ASG, etc.

I hope the rest of the 5s are like this, which I think could be the case like the 4s last year (except for the Cavs/Knicks).

I hope the Black Toes are easy like the Celtic 1s not the Royals or Knicks.

damn, what size you wear. 9?

 

[Auron_Kale]

Heh, my version of Grapes...

They're just the right amount of purple.

 

[Stabby McSter]

whaaaattt those already dropped?

 

[oc]

whaaaattt those already dropped?

Yep. They were available on Supreme's website about a week and a half ago. Not sure if they were available anywhere else.

 

[freenudemacusers]

if you ever wanted a raw vegetable tanned leather handmade AF-1 here is your chance:

after

 

[Spiderjericho]

Man, Nike sure made me come back from my sabbatical quick like Michael in 94.

I want the:

Kobe 8 Purple Gradiants/Playoffs
AJ 1 Black Toes
AJ 3 88 rerelease
Kobe 8 Homes

And eventually I'd like to get the Elite Lebrons.

My friend happened to cop his Vs successfully, so if you're looking for a 9.5 I got you for retail and ship (pending confirmation email from Dicks). Lemme know!

I want those now dammit.

If they had these in black, I'd buy them. I love the AF1, hate the quality.

I tried out the woven Free Trainer 5.0s yesterday...I love the look but the 5.0 sole is too thick for my needs in the gym. And the sock/booty like feel might not be for me too. I tried out the Free Trainer 3.0s and the much thinner sole is perfect. The solid colors that were only available at the store, though, looked too plain.

So, I ended up ordering these online:

No me, this is my first pair of Jordan's. I have a hat, button down, tie, socks, wallet and 10-speed bike to match.

Just kidding.

I've seen rumors of May 25 being a huge restock and also June 1 so hopefully those that didn't get them will.

I was about to say damn you were ready for them lol. But I hope those restocks are true.

 

[SUPARSTARX]

Yeah, those restock rumors are flying all over. Let them come!

 

[bodyboarder]

Well walked into my local footlocker (Australia) and they still had grapes in stock. Didn't really do anything for me, saved money atleast.

Did the ring around trying to find the digi florals, turns out we aren't even getting them. I like them but not enough for eBay prices. Chasing a US11 if anyone feels like selling for close to retail.

 

[MarkMan]

It's a lot easier to cop most AJ releases in EU/AUS. I need to ask my homies to come through over there.

 

[bodyboarder]

Yeah the last few pairs (royals etc) have been easy as to get. Just wish we got a bit more of the other releases.

 

[SUPARSTARX]

I think I'm good after I find the AJ 12,13 in black red colorways for the right price. I think that completes my nostalgia hunt.

And then a pair of XX8 so I can run around in.

 

[Prowl]

Yeah more purchases...

Sky 2 Hi

I'm not a baseball fan since I am Australian, but these SF Giants Gazelles were just too good looking to pass up,Wood Print Insole(Looks like a baseball bat) is a nice touch too.

 

[hwalker84]

Looks like everyone is restocking the Jordan 3 Retro 88's on May 25th online.
