Nike Begins Transition to Direct-To-Customer Stock Allocation

A suspicion I have had lately was confirmed for me last night. For the past year I have seen in-store inventory at boutiques and key retailers stay consistent across various releases even when it felt like it might be more of a GR release.

An example of this is the SBB 3.0. Limited at every store I checked in North America. Stupid limited in fact. But, Nike has been talking for a few years now about their digital focus and direct to consumer goal of increasing sales and it looks like thats finally in full force.

I can confirm, this SBB 3.0 drop is NOT limited and will be one of the biggest Jordan 1 releases of the year. This honestly blew my mind. It looks like all the stock is going to be on SNKRS across the world. Do not buy these for resell right now and make sure you are around on Saturday for the SNKRS release if you want a pair.

This is good news but it can also be a problematic thing. There is very rare times I may get insight into true world wide stock numbers or SNKRS stock. A lot of people report BS on social media but it’s never come close to being correct when I’ve looked into it. Not knowing SNKRS stock will make predicting a shoes true value before release more difficult.

I’ll have more thoughts on this but for now it’s important to know so we can discuss and see what questions come up from it.

Sole Savy is unreal! With a busy schedule it’s hard to keep up on shoes, and the group keeps me up to date on releases, tips on how to manually cop, and a marketplace with killer deals from fellow like minded collectors. It’s changed the sneaker game for me!

@SoleSavy is the truth. They've helped me cop kicks I never would've imagined getting at retail. Members always willing to assist on drops too. And most of all, a REAL community of REAL sneakerheads. These guys should be the gold standard for sneaker communities! #LifetimeMember

My membership paid for itself three fold by being solely responsible for my union 4’s, mesh sacai waffles, sacai blazers, court purple aj1s, glow in the dark yeezy 350s, travis scott lows (which I traded to get desert ore ow’s), air max 1 londons, bc3’s for way under retail etc.

Can't say enough about SS. The stellar help with copping shoes is a given but it's the community that makes it extra special. Hands down one of the best decisions I made as a wannabe sneakerhead.

The community of sneakerheads and resources available to help manually cop are great and really will help you get more Ws. The Zoom calls for hyped drops like Union Jordan 4 only adds to the camaraderie while providing real time instruction
