Before we post the launch guide for Union’s tomorrow I want to touch on one thing which is Nike’s direct to consumer (DTC) strategy. I had Justin hop on the podcast last night for us to discuss this briefly (20 min) so please listen on the members only feed!

If you don’t want to listen, long story short: Nike is scaling back the stock they send to boutiques and is looking to keep more for themselves for the rest of this year.

This brings me to SNKRS and the Nike app, my recommendation now is the same as it has been all year. Use one account and be active with it. Like releases, view notifications when they send them to you,, set release reminders, view stories in SNKRS, use your Nike app to shop, login anytime you buy anything online. Nike’s system is stilling studying accounts and learning who is an active, real person shopping with them and who is a dead account only logged in during a high heat release.

While this won’t ensure success, it’s recommend to do and easy enough on your end to do regularly.

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
