Black Friday has been over for months, but you would never know it if you went to Eastland Center in Harper Woods on Saturday morning.
The mall was forced to close after rowdy crowds piled in for a chance to buy the newly-released Air Jordan Retro 12 “Vivid Pink” sneakers.

They may not remember the last day they worked for a wage, but they can afford these sneakers.
I like them but would only buy them on Amazon since I totally know my size. I have neutral/cupcake feet, size 8.
Do I have to ask?
When it gets this bad, start selling online only.
Soooo sick of the rot in this country.
Yea, there be fungus among us. But do you have to be such a defeetist?
Every two years I buy a $30 pair of LA Gear or Reebok sneakers for walking and I'm done.
.... Apparently in Detroit .... the answer to Life, The Universe, and Everything is .......... shoes.
I have never, repeat never, cared that much about shoes of any type.
Ping.
“They may not remember the last day they worked for a wage, but they can afford these sneakers.”
No kidding. Any stats on the crime rate before the release
of the Girly Pink sneakers?
Feet appearance is sooo important, don’t you think? /s
What they do is buy them (or steal them), hold on to them for a few weeks until they are sold out, and then start selling them online for a higher price. Scalping, I guess you’d call it. Like concert tickets.
“Chaotic crowd”
A new euphemism for??? “Class? Anyone? Bueler?”
Also, today, a fight broke out at a Foot Locker in Madison, Wisconsin. Over Air Jordan shoes.
Two shot and injured this morning at the Foot Locker in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota. Over Air Jordan shoes.
Purely coincidence.
“The Kids Footlocker location selling the girls shoes, which have a retail price of $140...”
Riots over $140 CHILDREN’S shoes.
You’d think we were in Biafra fighting over the last bag of rice.
LEOs should have let the ferrals have at it and thinned the gene pool
Uh...Canadians?
Yep, ugly *girls* shoes! My guess is female ferals who rushed the mall.
