This weekend marks the release of Jordan Brand's most anticipated shoe of the year, the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG "Lost & Found". In honor of the shoe's vintage aesthetic and throwback story, we will be going back our roots with an in-store only raffle starting on Wednesday, 11/16 @ 11:00am for all sizes: from toddler all the way to men. While it will be a digital raffle, all winners will actually have to come down to the store to pick up their pair - just like back in the day.
This special vintage edition of the original "Chicago" colorway harkens back to a time when you actually had to go down in person to your local family run sneaker shop. These bygone days are very close to our hearts, as Lapstone & Hammer was born from a family-run sneaker shop. It's where we spent our summers when we were kids, working in the stockroom stacking boxes on the shelves and wrapping display shoes in plastic. We knew our customers faces and names, regulars who came in not just for the releases, but as space to gather and bond over common interests. This special release represents a time when customers had a real connection to their neighborhood stores which were part of their extended family.
Though times have changed, that connection to our customers remains as important as ever to us. So to strengthen that connection even further with our community outside of Philly, we have decided to open up our online raffle to all of our customers who have shopped with us in 2022. We will be sending a private link to every online customer who made a purchase with us in 2022 as way to show love to our online community. We may not know your faces, but you are just as important to us as those old school regulars were to their mom and pop shops.
- 1 Day Digital Raffle for In-Store Only Pick Up begins on Wednesday, 11/16 at 11am, and ends at Midnight:
- Raffle will be for all sizes:
- Men size: 7-18
- Grade school: 4-7
- Preschool: 11-3
- Toddler: 2-10
- Customers can sign up for 1 pair in each size range
- Winners will be contacted on Friday 11/18 to purchase in-store Saturday 11/19
- We will be sending a private link to every online customer that has shopped with us in 2022.
- Customers can only sign up with the email that was used for the purchase. Any other email address used will not be valid.
- Winners will be contacted via email on Friday 11/18 and links to purchase will be sent Saturday 11/19.
- Again, the online raffle will only be available to Lapstone customers. Any entry from an email address not associated with a purchase on our website will be disqualified.
- This does not guarantee a pair but simply narrows down the pool of entries and therefore gives our real customers a better chance at winning.
Thank you for shopping with us this year, and every year!
