Totally agree with hitting up Foot Locker first for those exclusives. But man, the wait times can be a nightmare, especially on drops days. Pro tip: always check StockX or GOAT for kicks you missed out on, sometimes you get lucky without the hassle.

Schuh is decent for kids, true that. Saved me last Christmas when I had to find some trendy sneakers for my niece. They had staff that actually knew what kids would like, rather than just tryna push the most expensive pair.
