    If a guy goes and gets stuff for his whole family/neighborhood, is that allowed?

    I'm sure they draw the line somewhere but that line probably depends on the player's skill level lol

    That's what I was thinking haha. Personally I'd want a guy's family/friends rocking as much gear as possible within reason; more exposure and goodwill for your brand

    Yeah that makes sense with the team issued stuff/PE releases or anything else with logo/practice wear, etc. I've just always been curious with the stuff outside of that..There is a show on the Big 10 network called the Journey which is basically a documentary of the conference's basketball season and I'll never forget they toured Durrell Summers' house at MSU and the dude had a mean Jordan/Nike collection...Cool gray high's, Gamma high's, OG AM95's, etc..A bunch of expensive, really nice shoes that were Nike or Jordan obviously but had nothing to do with MSU. Do they get any discounts on that stuff? Like it's been said, the All American probably gets whatever he wants...Just always wondered.

    Nike has different tiers with how much cash and gear you get. FSU allowed Nike to do a rebrand to increase our tier so we got more gear for players and recruits.

    I'm about 2.5 hours from Ann Arbor and only get there a few times a year. The store itself seems generally the same from what I recall but has Jordan branding a lot more places. I didn't see like a display of all Michigan themed retros or anything. But I'm usually there on gamedays and it's packed.

    The practice facility has a sweet display of Jordan gear/shoes/current uniforms all Michigan themed that you see a lot of photos of.

    Not at D3

    And there’s rules over how much schools can give players in regards to gear that’s not required for practice and games. It’s pretty restrictive actually.

    I don’t know if it was an exclusive drop or what. I just got a notification for the SNKRS app and clicked it and it was for the ones with the red block on them and I scrolled over and they were there with the price on them so I clicked on them and got my size and everything. Order has been confirmed

    Yeah, I saw it last night. Some got early access. Which doesn’t mean you will automatically get them, but there’s a better chance than a normal drop.

    You will absolutely get them. He's saying more people get early access than there are pairs available, so getting access alone doesn't mean you'll hit.

    Yeah what Druce said. Usually I see something on Twitter that you can check the app to see if you have early access to something for the next day. They give more access than pairs, but your chances greatly increase to hit.

    no there’s a place off Clemson blvd in Anderson but the name escapes me. $700 is insanity as well. I sold varsity goods a pair of yeezys I wore once as they didn’t do much for me and I got what I paid... they sold them as ds.

    Those were like the LA to Chicago that were one color and after you scuffed them up they’d change color.

    I don't think any of them are right, honestly. He's always good on info and what's dropping but his mocks are based off color codes and he's way off on a lot of those.

    Yep, and none of them look like this. But yea 5 pairs is crazy. And Patta has a whole pack coming too. I guess they chilled on AM1 for 18 months to bring them back and try to make them hyped.
