#CTFOAMHOME Galaxy Foamposite Competition & Lottery image
At Crooked Tongues we've noticed a certain level of hype about the Nike Galaxy Foamposite One. We're getting a size run or so of these bad boys and we want to make sure that our retail pairs end up in the hands of the UK heads, but we're also giving a pair away. The possibility of owning a pair free of charge is international. We decided to only sell to the UK on this one because of feedback from the CT community, because we want to see more Foams on these shores and because we don't want the site to go down for a day like it did with Concord XIs.

We've never seen this level of hype before — not even during the halcyon days of SB sleep outs and we want to make sure that our pairs go to a good home. The 3rd of March UK release date has been moved to next week (date to be confirmed), but we're only selling to those who win the Twitter prize draw. Aggrieved overseas customers can enter our Facebook competition. We're just trying to retain some order at a mad time for limited edition footwear.

HOW TO BE IN WITH A CHANCE OF GETTING A PAIR:

The Nike Galaxy Foamposite arrives on UK shores next week. People are losing their minds over this colourway, so we've devised two ways to get your hands on this space age sneaker.

PURCHASE (UK ONLY)

Our stock will be limited, so we're drawing names and ONLY SELLING TO UK CUSTOMERS. Apologies to our overseas customers, but numbers are too low for another server meltdown. We've got a full size run and RRP is £150. To be in with a chance of buying, FOLLOW US on Twitter and Tweet the following:

1. Your UK size
2. The hashtag #ctfoamhome
3. @crookedtongues
4. Your UK location (town, city or village)

e.g. #uksize10 #ctfoamhome @crookedtongues Bristol

We'll draw the winners at random (no bribes and no pleading please) before release and get in touch. Only one entry per person is allowed. You'll pay our retail price and we need you to pay by PayPal. UK SHIPPING ADDRESSES ONLY.


WIN A PAIR (OPEN TO THE ENTIRE GALAXY)

If you're not a UK resident, you can still be in with a chance of winning a pair of Nike Galaxy Foamposites. 'LIKE' us on Facebook and upload a photo of your feet in a pair of NIKE BASKETBALL SHOES onto our wall alongside your UK SIZE (in the photo description) and tag yourself. Please, no attempts to wrangle multiple sizes). We'll be giving away ONE pair, free of charge.

We'll be judging and our decision is final — composition and creativity will increase your chances of victory. One entry per person and we'll pick a winner before the shoes go on sale.

GOOD LUCK!

Clearly we have some uneducated americans. Again not sure what it has to do with your bitterness over some nike booties with pretty pictures of the cosmos but to correct those with regards the origins of Basketball, a canadian invented the sport who was born to parents who were Scottish. Facts are facts.

Anon on March 4, 2012 @ 07:57

LMFAO..to the dumb f uck who tried to take credit for the internet being a euro trash creation, thank you for validating how you cock less vaginas are stupid as F UCK! We should have left Hitler to have his way with all of you...you're like a disease..

Introduction of the Internet to the general public

UCLA puts out a press release introducing the public to the Internet on July 3, 1969.

Big ups to the dude who showed up that foo..yup internet, an american innovation! Last time I checked, UCLA is in LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, USA!

IDIOT BRIT!!!!

GOD YOU ARE A F U C K I N G TOOL!

http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch001016.htm

Question

Who invented the Internet?
Answer

The idea

The initial idea is credited as being Leonard Kleinrock's after he published his first paper entitled "Information Flow in Large Communication Nets" on May 31, 1961.

BORN IN NEW YORK CITY!!!

AS FOR AN EDUCATION, I SUGGEST YOU GET ONE, ALONG WITH A PAIR OF BALLS YOU SISSY LITTLE BITCH..

Anon on March 4, 2012 @ 07:25

Btw u can thank america for brining you basketball, nike and this medium called the internet in which you are so lamely attempting to use to talk smack. Smh. U guys are pathetic.

The internet, or to give it its correct name the world wide web, was invented by a Brit called Tim Berners Lee you absolute f ucking tool.
Do they even have an education system in America? Judging by ninety percent of the comments on here it would appear the anwer to that is no.

Anon on March 4, 2012 @ 02:51

Britain invented the USA

We (when i see we i meant myself and my neighbour jeff, jeff was born in dunstable, me, i was born in northampton so british as a rotton tooth) invented it on a sunday afternoon during the adverts inbetween Bullseye and Highway with Sir Harry Secombe.

Bit pissed to find those pesky americans have renamed it UAS

Anyway I digress but all this is true, uncle sam was actually my milkman from 1974 thru 1980. Donald was his real name.

Except Vietnam. In fact every war you have won has had the british there to back you up. We let you go off and fight some rice farmers on your own and look what happens. You get your heads to play with. Oh and the UAS, as you incorrectly call it, war of independence was a british civil war overseas so that doesn't count either.

In West Philadelphia born and raised
On the playground is where I spent most of my days
Chillin' out maxin' relaxin' all cool
And all shootin' some b-ball outside of the school
When a couple of guys who were up to no good
Started makin' trouble in my neighborhood
I got in one little fight and my mom got scared
And said you're movin' with your auntie and uncle in Bel-Air

Anon on March 2, 2012 @ 01:32

The only store getting these in Australia is 800km/500miles away from me and releasing in-store only. However, whilst this sucks for me, it's almost worth it to see a bunch of semi-literate Yanks getting all teary about it. Did you guys even know this store existed before the Concord release?

Professor_B on March 1, 2012 @ 08:59

Anon on February 29, 2012 @ 20:27

American Made Products, since when was Nike made in America???? Read the inner label, Made in China! Not America!!! *shaking head!

Speaking to Americans and having a debate is like speaking to a dog, they just bark regardless how calmly you speak to them!

Anon on February 29, 2012 @ 20:26

MUAWAHAHAHAAAAAA

You are a clown...

Go ahead and proudly wear that american product numb nuts... you will finally be cool..

You brits are a disgrace.. biggest hypocrites out there! fighting over american made products while talking bad about americans and locking out non uk customers? WTF???

Enjoy our stuff ladies!

You people are a joke...thats why you havent gotten any love from Nike up until now..

Anon on February 29, 2012 @ 19:56

Let's be honest, no one has a monopoly on style...

c'mon man.....judging from the comments i'm reading, it seems that we have here a bunch of hormonal teenagers all talking CRAP because they want the same shoe like a bunch of SHEEP. I wouldnt want these even if i did like them....too much hype surrounding them.

Anon on February 29, 2012 @ 19:25

I can't actually believe how pathetic some of these US posts are. Seriously, every one of you, step back, get a grip of your life, get mommy to dry away those tears, and notice that CT "loosing your custom for life" (as if you wont be straight back on here with the next big release) will not bring down the company. You're an embarrassment to the US scene.

Now watch me enter this competition.

Anon on February 29, 2012 @ 19:23

You Cock Breath Sissy monkies...

Hating on Americans?...

As if you US heads are not going to be hitting up CT again on the next Jordan release (free shipping and five hours DROP before your own release). CT has done the RIGHT THING, LIVE WITH IT.

Anon on February 29, 2012 @ 19:14

LOL..

YOU BRITS DONT HAVE A EFFING CLUE ON WHAT THE SNEAKERGAME IS ALL ABOUT! STOP FRONTING!

YOU GET ONE DECENT RELEASE AND ALL OF A SUDDEN YOU ARE HOT S HIT!!!!

BUNCH OF SISSY FAGGETS...

BAD BUSINESS PRACTICES...SHAME ON YOU...

YOU CAN TAKE THESE FOAMS AND SHOVE THEM UP YOUR A SSES!

LMAO!!!!!!!!

L555BAT on February 29, 2012 @ 19:00

As there are a lot of Americans in here any chance of hooking me up with some customised New Balance 574's? Unsurprisingly they don't ship to the UK, just like every other bloody US website.

Anon on February 29, 2012 @ 18:58

Please i really hope CT have taken the IP addresses of all these idiots and block them from buying from CT in the future. that would be THE BEST thing ever. Because we all know they are going to be back for the Olympic 6s lol

Anon on February 29, 2012 @ 18:49

I doubt there would be this kind of outrage if CT had been consistent with this release from the start.

They led the US customers on for two days via twitter.

It's the virtual equivalent of waiting in line at a store for two days and when you're next in line, the salesclerk tells you "Sorry. We're only selling to customers who live in this neighborhood."

Anon on February 29, 2012 @ 18:41

These American hype beasts piss me off (I'm an American btw). I'm happy for the UK heads CT is doing
It right. I love CT and prefer to buy from Them then from the American stores..

Anon on February 29, 2012 @ 18:33

Hopefully like some US buyers are claiming here, that less of them will shop here regarding the other releases.

Now you know how it feels when I try to buy from America.

Ahhhh I cant wait to get my pair... London massive STAND UP!!! haha

Properly laughing at the amount of e-thuggery and wounded vaginas on display from the USA here...

Anon on February 29, 2012 @ 18:21

Well done CT. We all know these americans wont shop here until the next hyped release.

Anon on February 29, 2012 @ 18:18

People need to be grateful that CT even allows non UK people to order from their site for Jordans, and with free shipping.
Listen, the foams are extremely limited, it was like that in North America, now why in the hell would CT give a lower advantage to its own country?
That's ridiculous!

Anon on February 29, 2012 @ 18:11

I'm gonna laugh my ass off when you fools go out of business!!!!!!

Anon on February 29, 2012 @ 18:09

America still takes a dump on you while you try to copy our style...and yes, its the reason why you havne't received any good sneaker release, because you are a small insigificant market ..and nike realizes that. We'll still always recieve the lionshare of releases...so have fun, and I DARE you to wear these foams in america.

Yes, what you have heard is real. Even more so for smack talking people from the UK who think they are hot $hit. So go ahead, rock your kicks..and lets see what happens..

Anon on February 29, 2012 @ 18:08

Anon go to bed your a fool - your the one crying these ugly ass sneakers not being available to canada.

Anon on February 29, 2012 @ 18:04

bye by crooked tongues!

Anon on February 29, 2012 @ 17:54

Very short-sighted. I won't be shopping at CT because of how they handled this.

They promote the release all last week with no caveat that they are discriminating based on location. Then Monday they send out a tweet instructing everyone to monitor their twitter as if they will be released at any minute. 48hrs later they finally decide to be upfront about the release.

MeNaCe on February 29, 2012 @ 17:54

Respect to CT for doing this right and showing love to uk sneakerheads once again. I just hope the shoes end up with grateful people who will enjoy them (maybe even wear them!) and not straight to eBay. Good luck sneakerfam

Anon on February 29, 2012 @ 17:53

LOL...go ahead laugh you pussies!

We do the same to you when we see you and your pasty skinned, tight skinned jeans wearing, heavily rotted teeth in our cities.

You think you're sooooooooo funny laughing at others misfortune...

Talking smack online, hiding behind your monitors...I'd love to see you visit south central LA, or brooklyn, NY with that kind of attitude...we'll see who's still laughing then..

Well its fair I guess.
But What about Canadians YOU OWNED US BEFORE WHY NOT CANADA WE STILL HAVE UR QUEEN.

I MEAN WHAT THE *****

On a sane note:please don't do this for The Jordan IV black cement and the 11 columbias

Anon on February 29, 2012 @ 17:49

@All Americans Crying, I hope you don't give them your business anymore. Less hassle for me when I try to get my stuff on release date. As an American myself, I see this as perfectly fair. Name a single website that dropped the Foams online? Nike didn't even do it so what do you expect here yourself.

Anon on February 29, 2012 @ 17:48

Hey americans, check eBay ^_^

Anon on February 29, 2012 @ 17:47

FINALLY!!!! anyway i hope to get a pair without YANKS getting my size. Come on Americanos play fair.

I bet they are only a fraction of your business compared to your online sales from the rest of the world!...

LMAO dumb brits....

Not a smart business move....

Anon on February 29, 2012 @ 17:39

I think this is a great idea !!! The UK always seems to get left out by any Foamposite releases. Its a great chance for UK sneakerheads to also own a great shoe.

Anon on February 29, 2012 @ 17:38

Can't beleive this. what a crock of $hit! I've shopped with you guys since the beginning, spent a ridiculous amount of money, and have spread the word to countless people in the sneaker community, but since you've chosen your customers, and left out everyone else in the world, we'll make sure to rememmber this. this is going up all over facebook. i'm making sure that no one i know shops with you punks ever again. teach you all a lesson for selectively choosing your customers for this release.

Anon on February 29, 2012 @ 17:38

Wow! I thought CT was better and more fair than that. Very sad that you would do this to your customers regardless of where they are located
