story

"The first thing I lay my eyes on, is a beautiful pair of Dunk Lows. I left, I came back at 5 o'clock in the morning to a longer line y'all.  Store opens 10 o'clock, the lines not moving."

"What's up y'all, this is Mike Baker (@phrshly_blessed) from South Central LA and this is my Grail Tales on how I copped the atmos Air Max 1. Undefeated is doing wristbands on a first come first serve at the La Brea location for Air Max Day."

"I already have plans to take my daughter to Six Flags the next day. I figured if I get there, get in line, I be out of there by the time the store opens at 10:00, I should be out by 12:00, me and her can get ready and go to Six Flags."

"Store opens 10:00, the lines not moving.  I'm looking down at my watch, it's 12:30. I flew into town, I drive back to home, get my daughter, and on the way to Six Flags, something in my mind told me "Drive down La Brea"."

"As I'm passing the store, the dude who I was in line in front of was next up.  He was like "Oh you made it back!" I'm like "Yeah!". "Cool, go ahead." I was able to get my shoes, and beauty of it all, I was able to customize my lace locks as well."

"What's up guys, I'm Jordan (@airjordank) from Hudson, NY and I'm here to share a story about my grail, the Nike SB J-Pack Dunk Low.  The year is 2005 and I walk into the local skateshop with a good friend, the first thing I lay my eyes on is a beautiful pair of Dunk Lows."

"I knew that I had to have them, I was 15 and broke, but thanks to a loan from that friend's father, I was able to get my first Dunks."

"Back then, as soon as I got any brand new pair of skates shoes, I immediately skated in them, destroyed them, and retired them.  That's what happened with that original pair."

"Fast forward to earlier this year, we're still in a global pandemic and I'm wasting too much time looking on the internet for sneakers, but what did I come across?"

"Deadstock, size 12, Nike SB J-pack Dunk Low.  You know I copped, that’s the story about how I got my Grail.

"Hey guys, this is Tiona Denise (@tiona_deniece), I'm in Atlanta, GA and this is how I got my hands on these Melody Ehsani."

"I'm coming home from work, and I decide I'm going to stand in line to wait for my shoes. I get down there, and the line is totally crazy, and its pouring down rain. I left, I came back at 5 o'clock in the morning to a longer line y'all."

"I'm like, "You know what, forget it, I'm going to do it". So I'm standing in line, and then all of a sudden they decide to do a women's only raffle."

"I go in, put in my information and now I got to play the waiting game. I'm waiting for hours y'all for these shoes, I'm on the verge of tears cause I wanted these so bad a then I get the phone call "Come get your shoes!"."

"No problem, I hop in the car, I speed downtown, I park in some random illegal parking lot and tell the guy "Listen, I'll pay you $10 if I can go across the street and get my shoes''."

"He said "No problem."  So I go get my shoes and that's all folks, this is how I got my hands on my Melody Ehsani's."
