The hottest new smartphone, the revolutionary video-game console, the blockbuster movie-ticket, and even the delicious fast food burger joint has all been ‘camped out’ for (In-N-Out does that to you). W Nike Court Zoom NXT HC, but what has changed for certain is the population of sneakerheads, which has experienced an immense growth over the COURT decade. It’s never a pretty sight as the disappointed will always outnumber the satisfied, and in light of the recent mayhem that occurred during the Foamposite One ‘Galaxy’ release, Nike has decided to take preventative measures to ensure the safety of all involved – consumers, retailers, and local police authorities.

Nike introduces the new ‘Twitter RSVP’ system – a digital means to ensure your pair of a hot upcoming release without the painstaking process of waiting outdoors for extended periods of time. The new Twitter RSVP system is fairly simple; Nike will designate a ‘RSVP Date’, and will begin the RSVP process at a random time on that allocated date. Those who respond in time with the necessary information will have secured a pair of sneakers once Nike’s Twitter responds (full information on the entire process below). Seems rather easy, doesn’t it? There is one glaring pitfall in this process – not everyone has a Twitter account. However, online release will remain the way they are, so for now, nobody will truly be left out, and the RSVP system should alleviate some of the heavy traffic that Nikestore experiences during these major midnight releases.

In addition to the introduction of the Twitter RSVP system, Nike has also banned midnight in-store releases as well as pre-orders for said midnight releases, and instead suggested to retailers a raffle/lottery system that would essentially wipe out any incentive of camping out for a sneaker release ahead of a release. Again, these measures have been taken by Nike to ensure the overall safety of its consumers, retailers, and the local authorities, but we do Now these new guidelines are effective immediately, meaning it Chega happen as soon as this Saturday’s release of the Air Jordan XII ‘Playoffs’.
