Shipping Is How Much?!?
Living in Hawaii, you have to accept a few things. One of these is the higher cost of shipping items to the aina. Take, for example, this Funko Pop of his Airness, Michael Jordan. Although now reduced in price from $12.50 to $9.00, the shipping cost is truly cost prohibitive.
Yes, you’re seeing that right. It’ll cost about $24 to ship a $9 item (that weighs less than one pound) to Hawaii. Luckily, Hot Topic allows you to ship to a local store that’s at a more reasonable cost.
I Wasn’t the One
Nope, I wasn’t the one who supposedly got the last one of these Funko Pop Michael Jordans with free shipping from Fanatics.com.
I Got No Jacks
Is this becoming a theme? No Frogs, no FOGs, and now no Jacks. Oh BTW, Happy Birthday Travis Scott!
To commemorate being 28 years old, good old TS let go a few more pairs of his Cactus Jack Air Jordan 1. I thought I had a chance but no, that top tier stuff still eludes me. I was in queue to checkout for so long but now that I think about it, I should have used several browsers to increase my odds. That’s my bad, and my bad looks like this.
I didn’t realize this was my third strikeout on the Cactus Jack Jordans. There was the initial drop then the Grammy drop, now this birthday surprise. There’s one opportunity left on May 11 and even though there are a lot of retailers, those familiar names didn’t work out with the FOGs.
Will These CP3 Make @gquiks487 Quicker?
Will these Jordan CP3.VIII AE make @gquiks487 faster than he already is?
Found these Chris Paul signature kicks line at Ross, and @gquiks487 was looking for this Multicolor Rainbow colorway. Pretty comfortable shoe for guards although it has an awkward name. For the record, CP3 is for Chris Paul who wears the number 3. This is CP’s eighth (VIII) signature shoe under the Jordan label, and the AE? I think that stands for Artisan Edition which are special colorways made for th playoffs.
If You Don’t Enter, You Can’t Win
That’s a simple lesson in life, but it’s so true. If you don’t enter, you can’t win. In the case of this raffle at Foot Locker Ala Moana aka the House of Hoops, you need to enter in order to get a chance at purchasing the upcoming Air Jordan 11 Legend Blue. Yes, these Carolina-colorway kicks are in high demand so the raffle figures out who can give Nike and Foot Locker $150-200 for these vintage kicks.
Since I happened to be there, you know I had to enter just because.
If you entered the raffle but weren’t chosen, there’s some nice Adidas Fluxes you can buy for consolation.
I wonder if these tall Asian ballers entered the raffle?
Another Air Jordan 3 Hybrid
And another hot seller for Nike. Seemingly any (tastefully done) crossover with the iconic Air Jordan 3 is an instant success with the latest being the Nike Zoom Vapor AJ3. Take the design from the AJ3, apply to the silhouette of the Zoom Vapor 9.5 Tour, make a limited quantity available at Nike Labs, and watch the pairs sell out in less than four minutes. When I saw the tweet announcing the Vapor release, it was four minutes old, and the Nike Lab site was already reporting out of stock messages.
Back in the day, I remember the P-Rod with the Jordan elephant print. This was the days before online kicks buying went crazy and just finding this shoe was super hard. I managed to see it in person once. Then came the Air Force 1 hybrid with the AJ3 which I managed to get a pair of and wore while watching President Obama leave in Air Force One.
I wasn’t so lucky with the Vapor AJ3. Just gotta hope a restock happens while you’re online so you have a chance of getting these. Or how about a black version of the Vapor AJ3?
Air Jordan X Blowout
Aw man, this is not how you want to see Air Jordans perform.
But getting an apology from His Airness is pretty cool.
The Moves of Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant
Check out this video comparing the moves of MJ and the Black Mamba.
What surprises me more is the amount of time it must have taken to sift through all this footage! Now that’s passion.
