Dan Jenkins reports at CBS Detroit that a chaotic crowd looking to buy Air Jordan shoes forced the closure of a mall in Detroit Saturday.
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.Read more here.
According to the Detroit Free Press, the mall opened at 8 a.m. and quickly closed after the crowd rushed the gate and broke a lock. Police got control of the situation and tried to open again at 10 a.m., only to see the same result.
The Kids Footlocker location selling the girls shoes, which have a retail price of $140, stopped selling the sneakers on Saturday due to the crowd’s behavior.
Reports say that nearby stores closed as well to avoid the chaos.
Although the store was selling girls shoes, there is no information on wheter the crowd was composed mostly of males or females.
Yesterday I saw a millennial wearing a crocheted hat with a tassle and pink shoes. I commented negatively on it to my friend, and he said I just have no sense of fashion.
