An early front-runner for the year's most surprising release, the Black Patent/Metallic Gold Air Jordan Retro 1 will make a return to retail this Saturday. One of the retailers that will carry the limited sneaker is Foot Locker, who shed some light on its release strategy today.
In partnership with mall management, select Foot Locker stores will implement a sweepstakes ticket procedure in order to purchase the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG Black/Metallic Gold (on sale 4/13/13 for $140). The sweepstakes ticket procedure will begin Wednesday, April 10 and end on Thursday, April 11. If your ticket number is selected, you will be notified by phone on Friday, April 12. To find out which store near you will carry the shoe and if that store will implement the sweepstakes ticket procedure, please visit the Foot Locker “Launch Locator” here. The shoe will NOT be available online.
Our customers are our priority and we encourage everyone to follow the procedure outlined above in an orderly and safe manner. We thank you in advance.
Mall Management directives and/or security issues may result in a change to the stated store procedure.
So as you may have expected, this will not be an easy pair to get your hands on. Enjoy another look below courtesy of Foot Locker Unlocked and good luck this Saturday.
