Starting this weekend, sneakerheads will now be able to get a few more hours of sleep before trying to cop a pair of kicks online. Nike just announced that Saturday morning launches will now be pushed back by two hours to 10 a.m. EST / 7 a.m. PST.
The reason for the change wasn't stated, but we're sure everyone appreciates the move, especially shoppers based on the West Coast. Say goodbye to those 5 a.m. drops.
At this time, only Finish Line has announced that it will also be making the change. No word yet from the likes of Foot Locker or Eastbay.
Beginning Saturday, 1.3 http://t.co/KGtR94dEpV launches will move to 10am EST / 7am PST. See upcoming launches here http://t.co/tGvWYG5Flk
