Since the sneaker game has gotten out of hand per-say Nike Store locations are gearing up to release their kicks via a Twitter RSVP Release System! All the details can be seen below and aside from this new way of releasing shoes for NikeStore’s, Nike has also banned in-store midnight releases and pre-orders for retailers and suggested that retailers do a raffle type launch to cut down on the campouts and make things a bit more safe for everyone. Check the full writeup below for the Nike Store Twitter RSVP system release info:

[B]Nike Store Launches – Twitter RSVP [/B]

Twitter RSVP is used to help manage product launches at Nike Stores. Follow your local Nike Store on Twitter for launch announcements and frequent updates.

The Twitter RSVP Process:

    -On the RSVP date, our store will send a tweet at a random time to begin our Twitter RSVP process, including a product specific hashtag (#tag).
    -Once registration is open, you must Direct Message(“DM”) the store within 60 minutes. The DM must include:

1) The product-specific #tag tweeted by the store
2) The last 4 digits of your State/Passport/Military/School ID number
3) Your shoe size (limit one).

Confirmations from the store will be sent via DM to those who have successfully secured their requested size. Shoes will be awarded on a “first respond, first serve” basis.

Confirmed recipients must pick up their product (in person w/ identification) from the store on the day of launch. Unclaimed product will be announced on Twitter and will be re-released at the store’s discretion.

How do you properly RSVP through DM? Here’s an example:

1. Store Tweet:
2. Twitter #RSVP is now open for the Air Foamposite One.#Electrolime
3. Consumer Response (DM):
4. #Electrolime, 4253, 10.5(For more information about sending a DM, see the Twitter Help Center.)
