Reminder that the Nike x Undefeated Dunk vs. AF1 ‘5 On It’ Pack drops tomorrow at 11AM EST exclusively on https://undefeated.com/
Undefeated will be shipping worldwide for this release. This pack will also be seeing a release on select SNKRS regions in the coming weeks, just like the previous ‘5 On It’ Pack
If you wish to ship outside of the US, you’ll be forced to use the International Checkout Portal. Duties and Taxes will be included at checkout, but it’s good to keep in mind that this portal has always had trouble loading when traffic picks up on big releases. If you can’t load it checkout immediately, I recommend opening up multiple tabs with the same checkout link until one of them ends up loading. Overall I’d stay away from this if you can, but if you are going to try this portal, it seems to have a better time loading on mobile
Undefeated has never used an entirely new Shopify store for a release, so I doubt they do it here, but anything is possible. If they do, it will be linked to the home page so I would bookmark https://undefeated.com/ as a backup. we’ll also link it in the #announcements-releases channel
They used H Captcha Checkpoint for the last 2 drops so expect it to be up tomorrow as well
There were some sitemap issues for the last drop which resulted in nobody being able to cart the shoes for the first 5 or so minutes. This also resulted in some 429 errors upon submitting payment for some. This happened to some people who pre-carted and people who did not. This was not related to pre-carting and I don’t see them making the same mistake twice. If you believe it had an affect on your checkout session last time, I would be split screening tomorrow with one browser that has a pre-cart ready and the other where you simply cart the shoes normally and head to checkout at drop time
Pre-Cart Steps:
If you wish to pre-cart, make sure you’re doing it ahead of 10AM EST as that’s likely when the Password Page will go up and you won’t be able to cart anything.
You should add a cheap item to cart ahead of the release. Do not head to checkout yet. Just simply add the item to your cart – https://undefeated.com/collections/all?sort_by=price-ascending
Make sure you have an account on Undefeated and are logged in as it’s required to check out
Have a bookmark for https://undefeated.com/ in case they use a new site and link it to their home page again. (Similar to the A Ma Maniere & Bodega drop)
When Password Page goes up –
Bookmark https://undefeated.com/checkout and begin clicking it at drop time to get into the Queue with your pre-carted item as soon as the Password Page goes down. If Checkpoint is up, you will be redirected to solve it first and then redirected to queue once you submit. Once in queue you can cart the shoes in a new tab
If you choose not to pre-cart then simply bookmark https://undefeated.com/ and begin clicking it at drop time and head through the checkout steps as usual once the password page goes down. Both shoes will be on the home page
Password page went up for the last Dunk vs. AF1 Drop about an hour before release so I would expect the same tomorrow
There will be a Zoom tonight to answer any questions for tomorrow’s release, so if you’re unsure about anything, be sure to join and ask anything you may be unclear about before the drop
