UPDATE #1 A detailed spreadsheet with all the ordered models and sizes was submitted to the Kitchen yesterday by Massdrop. They did a great job organizing everything, so hats off to them handling this well done drop in rare form!
As soon as I received all the orders from Massdrop I placed my orders for the base shoes from Nike. Many of these shoes are coming from NikeID as mentioned in the description. NikeID will ship them to the GourmetKickz Kitchen as soon as they are built. And as soon as I receive them, I will get to cooking!
Every single Roshe being used is in fact their "premium" model.
The Sunset Palmers are the only pair that uses an "off the shelf" base shoe. Therefore the Sunset Palmers will ship closer to the 3 week estimation. Every other pair will ship closer to the 6 week estimation.
I will do everything I can to meet the 6 week deadline and updating this discussion along the way. I will also try to post some pictures of the kicks as they get cooked up!
The drawing for the FREE pair will take place some time next week. I am thinking names on tickets drawn from a colander!
Thanks again for all the support! And keep an eye out for the next update! As each shoe is brought to life I will be posting image galleries on my instagram feed to showcase my visions cooked into reality! -Chef @gourmetkickz on Instagram

tacomanCurious about this too... if premium and off the shelf have different prices, I feel that I should get a discount for ordering the sunset palmers.

tacoman"off the shelf" means they do not get built up on NikeID before getting into my hands. It is still a Roshe Run "Premium".

andrew.bAs I stated in my extremely detailed and courteous update: "Every single Roshe being used is in fact their "premium" model."
Furthermore, you will receive EXACTLY what is pictured. Some customs take longer than others, some use more colors than others, some require more careful placement of design than others. The nature of my business is to price all shoes in a single release at an average value to avoid super complicated pricing. You therefore received the best price for the shoe you ordered. Thanks in advance for understanding! -Chef

GourmetKickz"As I stated in my extremely detailed and courteous update: "Every single Roshe being used is in fact their "premium" model." Yes you did but it wasn't until now you said that one of the options is there non premium id. The premium base model is 80$ a shoe while a premium id is $120- a $40 dollar difference.
I am all for what you are doing here, but to leave this information out until now and say its to avoid super complicated pricing you price it all the same and therefor we are receiving the best pricing.
But thats not true the base model shoe is cheaper, so its like having a dinner menu with two said items may it be lobster and then tilapia and charging the same price because you are the chef.

GourmetKickzYes, thanks for the detailed update. It was just confusing because you followed "premium" with "only pair that uses off the shelf base shoe." That just gave me the impression that I was getting something else.
Thanks again and good luck with the orders!

tacomanThat's what I thought. I'm sure these will still be worth it, but it would've been nice to know this.
