Air Jordan 7 “For the Love of the Game” Release Date Change

Air Jordan 7 Olympic "For the Love of the Game"

We have just learned that the highly-anticipated Air Jordan 7 “For the Love of the Game” will now release on August 13th, 2010 as opposed to August 7th, 2010, its original date. This comes as no surprise considering the majority of the big Jordan Brand releases seem to carry at least one release date change these days. The Air Jordan 7 “For the Love of the Game” will hit select retailers worldwide as a quickstrike release on a Friday. However, the quantity of this release, along with the specific locations, have yet to surface. Stay tuned as more information should release soon.

    Na. Don’t count on regular retailers to have them unless they’re an exclusive store. Which they’re aren’t many…

    quickstrike means limited release at select retailers…they get the name quick striek cuz it comes out one day..and most of the time are gone that same day

  13. Posted by questmoney at July 24, 2010 at 11:25 pm

  14. Posted by sean at July 24, 2010 at 11:25 pm

    yes some select footlockers will especially if yours does good if yours had the infrared pack most likely it will just ask around plus footaction don’t listen to ppl who say house of hoops only cause it isn’t a house of hoop exlcusive just call and check

  15. Posted by qweqewq at July 25, 2010 at 4:42 am

  16. Posted by mball423 at July 25, 2010 at 4:49 am

    easy with the quickstrike jokes guys, we all started somewhere…. i'd love to get my hands on these, but i doubt i'll be so lucky

    • Posted by Dr J2006 at July 26, 2010 at 12:38 am

      Thats true, we all have to crawl before we walk. Lakers champs, if you have any other ?s about the sneaker game, holla @ me. Anyway, i copped a DS pair last month and broke several necks. I gotta get these and put a few more people in neck braces!

    I'm headed straight to House of Hoops for these.

  22. Posted by Horse at July 25, 2010 at 5:47 am

    well i have the highest volume Foot Locker in the STL area at my disposal. i hope i wont have to beat a line to get these.

  23. Posted by Www.rpslife.com at July 25, 2010 at 2:01 am

    We got a few pairs for release. Visit our website for more details.

  24. Posted by Jcudi at July 25, 2010 at 7:06 am

    Really chill with the quickstrike jokes… Just because someone is new to the shoe game doesn't mean you have to act like hes retarded or something… Nd yea its not a HoH exclusive or nothing… If your local footlocker(non-hoh) or footaction is a popular one then they might just get em, never hurts to ask.

  25. Posted by Djrubadub at July 25, 2010 at 2:19 am

    Yea ima get 45 pairs.

  26. Posted by vitotorres91 at July 25, 2010 at 10:00 am

    im hella campin out for these!!!

  27. Posted by dcritique at July 25, 2010 at 7:24 am

    Finish Line is the best shoe retailer!

  28. Posted by Finishlineemployee at July 25, 2010 at 8:32 am

    Well finishline and footlocker night both end up getting theseafter all they did say that the infrared pack was suppose to b super limited but both finihline and footlocker had some of they’re stores carry then as well as online order so thy may by b that hard to grab

  29. Posted by Joe Cool at July 25, 2010 at 8:36 am

    I’ve been trying to get details from Reps at nike, but i cant get any new info. Only thing i’ve been told is that the price is set to $159.99, and a deal is trying to be worked out as to which retailers will be able to sell them because of the limited amount produced because of short notice. This shoe was given the ok to release only 2 months ago, so were all lucky to have a chance to get them so early. Although I’ve had them for a couple weeks now, I’d love to get another pair. Waiting patiently like everyone else….

  30. Posted by giddyup at July 25, 2010 at 10:11 am

    All of you seem to forget about Champs. They get the exclusives as well. Anyone living in the NO knows where to get these. And its not footlocker or footaction.

  31. Posted by jzallday35 at July 25, 2010 at 3:22 pm

    damn im gonna be in myrtle beach sc on the 13th, does anyone know if theres a house of hoops near myrtle beach?

  32. Posted by dispo at July 25, 2010 at 10:29 am

    I hope I can get a pair. I love og kicks and at first the ftlotg logo bothered me but in a way it makes this retro unique. I’m sure jb retros will only increase so this pair will likely stand out from past and future releases of the Olympic 7.

  34. Posted by Sour412 at July 25, 2010 at 11:05 am

    Y’all late knew that on Tuesday and kno where they’ll b at

  35. Posted by Joe Cool at July 25, 2010 at 12:46 pm

    OK so here’s what I know so far:
    Do not lsten to anyone who thinks they know about the details for this shoe.
    There will only be 2,000 pairs released in the U.S. ranging from size
    7 to 13. This info is directly from Nike. Nike will have them available online
    12:01 am 13 Aug.,2010, although it is still unclear how many will release online.
    There is still no word on how many will release in Europe, Japan, and
    Austrailia (the only other countries to recieve them). Those are the FACTS. No
    other info will be released until Aug. 2nd at the earliest. That is when the
    full details are expected to come out. Until then, relax.
    Either you’ll get them, or you wont.

  46. Posted by DSDSDSDSDSDSDSDS at July 26, 2010 at 1:53 am

    Seriously, I never post comments… but you dudes clowning the homie for asking what quickstrike is need to relax… There's more to life than your sneaker collection… Mine runs triple digits deep and I remember a time when I had no clue what QS stood for… These 7's look straight to me… will cop if I can, but can we get some Olympic 180s in this mug??

  47. Posted by frogwithnohead at July 26, 2010 at 2:22 am

    i dont know what nicekicks is talking about because the information on these has always said it were to release on the 13th never had it said about the 7th this is basically old news so i am very dissapointed in this information they have received today try to keep up with other sites just saying.

    • Posted by GUILTY at July 26, 2010 at 3:45 am

      All other sites reported this too dumb ass, TSG, Sneakernews and Sole Collector had articles about the release date change, however us folks over at ISS new about this

  48. Posted by tanner at July 26, 2010 at 3:10 am
