Anyone who has shopped or even browsed online knows that PayPal is one of the primary methods of payment utilized by countless merchants around the globe; it’s been a staple of eBay commerce for years, and it’s even a viable checkout option on Nikestore. PayPal has always acted as a wallet “cloud” of sorts, with a debit or credit account being connected with a personal PayPal account to make paying for goods as easy as possible. But what was once an online only option has switched to actual stores, as Foot Locker and PayPal team up to launch PayPal’s Offline Payment shopping solution in its 1,200 stores nationwide. PayPal account holders can access their personal accounts by entering the phone number connected with the account while “checking in” to Foot Locker to access VIP memberships (no need to look for ‘em in your wallet).
So how’s this different from, say, cash or a credit card? Aside from the convenience of “checking in” and not having to search for your Foot Locker VIP card, you don’t need to be carrying around actual credit cards or wads of cash to pick up your favorite sneakers – a secure feature on those raucous sneaker releases. In addition, parents can either give their PayPal account info to their children to safely make purchases in-store, or create a joint account to give the young customer a little more control. Sneaker News was given an opportunity to experience the PayPal Offline Payment in-store, and we must say – it’s pretty darn easy. PayPal won’t stop at Foot Locker either, as it aims to become a payment option at over two millions stores by the end of 2013. Your thoughts on this development? Does this make sneaker purchases easier for you? Let us know.

Poor Maurice is having a hard time fitting with Kris Humphries’ crew after he was shipped away by James Harden for rocking the same shoes on consecutive nights. Before, Kris was worried about his appearance as he was fishing for compliments from his crew, but in this alternate scenario, Kris and Co. are now building what appears to be a time machine. We all know Kris would like to re-do a few events in his life, and had Maurice been given a “do over”, he would’ve worn some different heat when meeting with Harden and the boys. You can prevent that from happening to you by copping all of the Foot Locker Approved Heat that drops this weekend like the Nike LeBron X ‘Volt’, the Nike Kobe 8 ‘Blue Camo’, and the Nike KD V ‘Texas’, so check out this latest commercial and let us know which of the three kicks you like best.

Last year, the Galaxy craze in Florida created national media attention due to the mass crowds that swarmed mall parking lots, forcibly causing select Foot Locker retailers in that region to cancel the release. This year, Foot Locker has taken extra precaution to ensure the safety of its customers and employees by setting some specific procedures regarding all the top-flight sneaker releases, starting with an Air Jordan IX ‘Cool Grey’ restock on Wednesday, ending with yet another restock of the Air Jordan III Retro ’88 on Sunday, and including all the All-Star footwear in-between. Remember, these rules and schedules apply ONLY to Foot Locker locations in the Houston area, so click below for full information.

There’s good cop and there’s bad cop, but how about “dumb” cop? Poor guy can’t even figure out that one of his detectives is the very guy he’s looking for. Kevin Durant stars in this latest Foot Locker commercial playing two roles, the detective, and also the fugitive KD who is wanted for being “not nice” and viciously dunking on helpless opponents. The chief does have a lead with a piece of key evidence – one shoe from the Nike KD V ‘Ice Blue’ aka ‘Gullwing’ (the same shoe Detective Durant happens to be missing). Check out the full video and be sure to check out Foot Locker for all your Nike KD V gear, and whenever you spot KD doing his damage on the court, let your Twitter community know by tweeting @FootLocker and using the hashtag #KDISNOTNICE.
