Jordan Golden Moments Pack


Today was one of the biggest sneaker releases of the year. Just like the 2006 DMP XI and VI pack, the Gold Moments Pack released today in commemoration of Jordan's Olympic Medal won in 1992.
This time around, the pack was priced at $350 as opposed to 2006 pack which was priced at $296. Following all the chaos and pandemonium that came with the Concords and Galaxy Foams release, most sneaker retailers opted to a safer and more organized release method. Footlockers around the country conducted a raffle for the release, Finishline implemented a "RSVP" system similar to Nike's, and Nike used their notorious Twitter RSVP system. Sneakerheads on Twitter were buzzing that this pack was getting the "Yeezy treatment", referring to a highly organized release that makes it near impossible to use any traditional sneaker camping techniques. Whether you got your pair or not, it is obvious that corporations and sneaker store chains have been forced to focus on every single limited release that comes by. Will this put an end to violence for kicks or perhaps raise it due to the increased difficulty to cop a pair of kicks? Only time will tell and perhaps the AJ XI Bred dropping this December will prove how well the new system has worked.

Were you able to cop your package without hassle? Send us your stories! Also, look out for the video review of the package coming up.
