Rolled out to mostly positive reviews, Nike's new online drawing system is creating a fairer platform for purchasing highly coveted sneakers in light of the controversy involving add-to-cart bots. Apparently pleased with its success, the system is slowly being integrated into NikeLab retail locations.
NYC-based 21 Mercer announced that it will pilot Nike's drawing sytem for the fragment x NikeLab Roshe Cortez and Roshe LD-1000 releases. A link will be tweeted from the @NikeLab Twitter account at 1:00 p.m. EST tomorrow, with a 30-minute window to enter. Winners will reserve a pair for in-store pickup. Online NikeLab releases will remain the same for the time being.
The drawing system is designed to create a more premium in-store launch experience. Discover how it works: http://t.co/7Gwj9967lM #NikeLab
