All indications so far point to stock for this release being higher than most hype releases. Nike is not interested in limiting the availability of this second collection and that has shown in stock numbers we have seen. While demand is high, we do not expect resell for any colourway to exceed $400 USD post release and it’s likely they push into the low $300 USD range.
Most EU raffles are worth entering for but be prepared to pay $350 to $400 CAD with duties and shipping. You will find in the end of this guide we highlight the best worldwide options for purchasing the shoes.
Canadian options are limited to Haven and Nike.ca but both account for a good portion of stock. Recent releases with similar stock on Nike.ca include the AJ5 PSG and AJ4 Raptors.

Nike HQ has confirmed this release will happen online in Canada. As of right now we can expect about 400 pairs of each colourway to be available online which is considered good stock for Nike.ca — this is 4x more compared to an Off-White release.
We will confirm with Nike the night prior to release to ensure all things are a go.
Nike.ca will have sizes 6 to 13 in Yellow and Grey. Pink will only be available in sizes 6 to 12.

The only Canadian store to have this release is HAVEN. When we contacted Haven last week they said the release will be FCFS at both stores and that customers would be allowed to purchase all three colourways if they choose to. HAVEN has since confirmed the release will be FCFS at 11AM local time but we need to double check with them on limitations in store. Whatever you do, do NOT tell other people they may be allowed to buy more than one. If word gets out then resellers will be out in full force.
HAVEN will also release all three shoes online at 10AM EST with good stock, similar to the Wave Runners. Please pay careful attention to what advice we give you for this online release as it will be very important the day of. For now, make sure you have an account registered on their website.
HAVEN will NOT let you buy three shoes in one order. You will have to order one shoe at a time if you want to try and buy all three. Stock is good enough that if you’re quick you and have autofill you may just be able to pull off at 2 or 3 in a minutes time.
Only sizes 8 to 12 will be available at HAVEN.
