New York City sneakerheads are descending on 34th St today for the grand opening of Foot Locker's new flagship location. The massive new store, located at 112 W 34th, drew crowds with the promise of restocks of sneakers like the "Fade to Black" Kobe pack and the "Shattered Backboard" Jordan 1s.
How did the lineup go? Based on the video below posted by Foot Locker, things actually weren't too chaotic. The store handed out wristbands for releases on Monday, which no doubt helped things go smoother on Tuesday morning.

This sort of controlled release is a welcome departure from the madness that has often characterized sneaker restocks and releases in New York City.
