Well first you have to remember its corporate that makes the shoes choices so big stores don’t even see the reps anymore and plus knowing about release dates never was nor will it ever be a concern for the salesman to know. The things that they should know is how the shoe is made or what shoe is good for my feet. That is what stores are lacking, plus customers don’t to try on shoes anymore like we did when we were kids. When they salesman pulled up next to you and said to put your foot up on that rolling stool he was sitting on. We don’t get that service anymore. Its all about how many multiples did you sale when the customer came in when it comes to footlocker. Footlocker needs to go back to those small stores with the turn about displays that had one of each shoes on it and they had whole lines there. They would get back to making money.

the way to tell if the guys that work at the stores know jack about kicks is to look at their feet, if they wearing something isnt exclusive ect, they prolly dont know for say a guy is wearing a pair of black on black adidas he is prolly just a regular guy who needed a job, say a guy is wearing some rare joints or a newly released xii, is the guy you need to talk to if you want to know a release date or something or want info about the shoe, he will more likely know the price an model without looking at the shoe

The Footlocker by me, they pretty much know what’s dropping and the names of the shoe. I can’t say the same for other stores in the mall…or other shops I go to. I have to be real descriptive cause some people don’t know what the Dunkmans are. Don’t know whose the athlete behind it or the colorways etc. Like some people said before me…it depends on age too. I didn’t start really knowing kicks til a few years ago. Teenagers don’t know the retros
Good blog
