Headlining what was possibly the biggest release date ever was the Dave White x Air Jordan 1; the collaborative effort between the UK-based artist and Jordan Brand fueled by a charitable cause first began in early 2011 when twenty-three limited pairs were released via an online auction. Roughly one year later, a general release version hit stores and immediately sold out – just see how many people lined up at NikeTown NYC to clear out whatever they had in stock. It was a snowy Saturday morning in New York City, but the weather didn’t stop those in line to lace up in some nice kicks like the Air Jordan IV Doernbecher and the Metallic Red Foams, so check out the release recap courtesy of FRESHNESS and pick up a pair of your own Dave Whites now on eBay.

id say…. 85% HYPEBEAST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
February 14th, 2012 at 3:56 pm
Those 1s are definitely unique, but there's other shoes I'm getting soon. I see such high bids on eBay for them. Ppl should try to cop of the restock on the 24th IMO to save some bred (I'm trying the 4s and the galaxy's, good luck to all!)
February 14th, 2012 at 4:24 pm
I some heat out there in line. That's wassup!
February 14th, 2012 at 5:17 pm
a shit load of resellers
February 14th, 2012 at 5:18 pm
85% of them did/do not know who Dave White prior to the release I know I dont
February 14th, 2012 at 5:19 pm
idiots. wait on line for kicks no of em are even gonna wear. they all just gonna resell. smh i actually wanted a pair and couldnt get them on the website and no way am i gonna line up when i have priorities in life. look at the fools dressed in nice kicks when it was raining with snow smdh if these were a wide GR with sizes from Infant-adult im sure no one would have copped. michaekl and transit want $650 smh for a shoe that proceeds go to charity! im sure no one on that cares about the proceeds or even know who dave white is!
February 14th, 2012 at 5:26 pm
maybe the worst 1's I have ever seen
February 14th, 2012 at 5:27 pm
People in nyc are supposed to be known for always being at their best when it comes to fashion….I can't tell!!! O yeah that guy on the second page look hella lame just being real a matter of fact they all look lame. Those 1's are crap to me personally and its not worth sitting in the cold for something thats soo materialistic, but I guess thats what the "O.G." Sneakerheads do. # water tower swagg gang # findlay prep Starter

Glad i was able to cop a pair cuz these will b a collectors item to have in da closet… But sure glad i didnt get in sum insane long line fa them. I thought people were started to get in line fa da galaxy foams, not these
February 14th, 2012 at 5:42 pm
those folks sure as hell arent og bro people that use to camp out for the og stuff done moved on in life and have resbosobilities if your a grown as man over the age of 21 camping for sneakers you havent grown up
February 14th, 2012 at 6:38 pm
personally i like them, i copped to rock not to resell. Resellers should all go to hell ruining the game. Most not all people, be hating on these only because others are ripping on them so sad. If you have it in your hands the love for the shoe increases significantly with the quality you see that most jordans nowadays dont have.
February 14th, 2012 at 6:39 pm
LMAOO ,LOOK AT ALL THEM USUAL SUSPECTS THAT COP TO RE SELL …
AT LOOK @THE HERB ON THE 2ND PAGE WITH ALL THOSE BAGS IN HIS HAND THINKING HES COOL .. #LAMEEE!!!!!
February 14th, 2012 at 8:20 pm
You lost all cred from the start homie. The db 4's are raw. Maybe what you meant to say is with this porky ass's swag they don't look good. Not to mention wearing them out in those conditions..tsk tsk
February 14th, 2012 at 8:34 pm
Are you being serious dog? You're really going to post your single minded and clearly opinionated theories about how immature it is to camp out for sneakers on a website titled sneaker news? Take your attention starving, life lesson spreading no good for this website ass back to facebook. Who are you to judge an individuals maturity by their unique passions/hobbies
February 14th, 2012 at 9:43 pm
You guys are always whining and crying about re-sellers. Sound like a bunch of little girls.
February 14th, 2012 at 9:53 pm
That's what's up, it's good to see sneakerheads copping heat & no negative reports! I too agree, resellers suck!
February 14th, 2012 at 10:12 pm
shoe is definantly not that serious
February 14th, 2012 at 10:40 pm
You mad?! Are you offended? It's called an opinion for a reason b.
February 14th, 2012 at 10:41 pm
Wow best response ever
February 14th, 2012 at 10:45 pm
Yes indeed! I was out there and majority of the people on the line intended on reselling their pair(s), including an 11yr old kid that was trying to school me about why the line was so hectic lol.
February 14th, 2012 at 11:55 pm
i dig the spizikes. go harder than all lebron 9 and bhm bullshit droppin

February 14th, 2012 at 11:58 pm
Preach
February 14th, 2012 at 11:59 pm
Or people could be ripping on them because they're ugly •_•
February 15th, 2012 at 12:00 am
Same as the red foams most people on line had no swag , just pure resellers smh.
February 15th, 2012 at 12:49 am
not for nothing and i aint hating but i am not a fan of the ones let alone camp for them. and just curious..not sure about anyone else ..when did it become "cool" to camp? i get most of the stuff i want without camping..i have a lot better things to do with my time..time is money and i dont have much free time. as i said i am not here preaching..just curious why people get pumped to camp..hype is crazy these days..i dont like having to lock things down months ahead of time but if i have to..so be it and than i limit to what i buy. for me jordan 1's do not appeal to me..i guess to each his/her own. congrats to those that copped.
February 15th, 2012 at 1:35 am
I’d say in line 9O% hyperbeasts n the other 1O% will actually rock this uggly shoe keep it real folks.
February 15th, 2012 at 10:21 am
he got his shoe tho
February 15th, 2012 at 4:15 pm
I personally think retros remixed or made in different colors mess the sneaker game up
February 15th, 2012 at 6:55 pm
This proves people will buy anything.
February 17th, 2012 at 6:31 am
First off the niggabwith all the bags is me. Second off i rock all my. Shit. Third off I def didn't have to camp out when I got the wristbands. Sounds like a bunch of haters to me. The only reselling Nigha out there was the stink fat Nigha with the fb 4s. He paid about 1000 dollars for 5 pairs of Dave whites.
February 17th, 2012 at 6:52 am
Stop hating homie. Get ya money up
February 17th, 2012 at 9:12 am
why do i have to be lame?? thats what a hater would say
February 20th, 2012 at 3:39 pm
why does everyone hate on this shoe??
February 21st, 2012 at 7:21 pm
Pity there is no resell on these as they are so ugly.
February 21st, 2012 at 7:22 pm
Then who would they re-sell to? Whackkkkkk lovers?
February 22nd, 2012 at 9:04 am
