Exclusive: Yeezy 2 Campout Begins a Week Early

When the end of one campout begins, it doesn't take long for another one to start. Last week, the "South Beach" LeBron 9 Elite drew a business-week long wait for crazed sneaker fanatics who have been yearning for that sneaker. But we knew the Air Yeezy 2 would bring just as much hype and anticipation, if not more, when its release was on the horizon. And now, yet another campout has begun at the same Foot Locker House of Hoops location on 34th street in New York City. The difference this time around is that there are also a few dedicated sneakerheads camped out in front of the Dr. Jay's retail location just a few stores away from the HoH. Two different campouts, one block! Sneaker Watch once again brings you exclusive photos of the lines that have formed for the coveted Air Yeezy 2. Check out the images and let us know if you plan on waiting a week for the Air Yeezy.

Actually a lot of the people standing in line have good jobs, college educated, and can actually work there schedules so they work from home. You guys may have to do the 9-5 hustle, but some people have the time to do it. Granted some won't get the sneakers, but they'll just buy them on Ebay for 2 grand. Life's sweet when you have the cash. Don't hate on them for doing, hate your boss for not allowing you to do it when you were FEIGNING to stay out. Don't act like living in your section 8 housing is better than the street.

The kats that waited there for 6 days must be heated!! I wonder if they asked to form the line or just went and stood(sat) there?

people just cant blame the resellers, you have to blame the buyers who buy from the resellers.

yessir... not sure if they got the raffle idea from my comment or not but glad Footlocker and Extra Butter are doing it! Best thing is it stops resellers from camping to monopolizing these sneakers and secondly stops these ridiculous campouts.

NIKE needs to understand the most simplest concept about making money, release more sneakers that are going to sell and heres a noble idea MAKE MORE MONEY. Or are they not in business for that?

what these sneakers stores need to do to stop this foolish week campouts to make it more fair to real sneakers heads that actually have to WORK, make it fair for everyone and give out tickets to everyone in line at release time and draw random numbers like a raffle. Stop these resellers from monopolizing the sneakers with these foolish week campouts!
