The Air Jordan 1 Retro High ‘Hyper Royal’ is seeing a worldwide release tomorrow at select retailers for $170 USD / $230 CAD
Stock:
As mentioned earlier throughout the week, this release will not be easy regardless of how much stock is available. Most retailers have received less pairs of these than they did for the UNC’s a few months ago so this is likely going to be a worse release in every aspect
We’re once again seeing delays with shipments for this release as well. Retailers like Jimmy Jazz and Footlocker are currently missing pairs. Shoe Palace is only releasing around 560 pairs which is about half of what they put up for UNCs. They haven’t loaded stock for GS pairs either so expect those to release randomly at a later date
I’ll follow up shortly with Footsites stock and some Non-Shopify releases, but as usual, these should be left as your last options
Strategy:
I would wake up for the 6AM EST SNKRS CA release as we’ve seen a good amount of people winning on these big releases
As for 10AM EST, Livestock will be the only confirmed Canadian release and they will only drop GS Sizing. They have less GS pairs than Mens so I’m not exactly sure why it’s dropping online, but just be aware that stock is low
Most people will likely have to stick to US releases, so I would try for ShoePalace first as they usually drop a few minutes before 10AM EST and then focus on DTLR or YCMC as they usually drop a decent amount of Jordan 1s
Kith does not drop many Jordans online so I would stay away from them. Concepts is currently unconfirmed, but if they do drop they should use H Captcha Checkpoint which will make it a good option
As usual, SNKRS is expected to have the most stock tomorrow, so be sure to try for the Shopify releases first and then move to submit your entry in the SNKRS Draw
