All day Nike Store’s Twitter accounts responds to what looks to be thousands of questions. They deal with problems with a particular shoe, shipping, restock questions or if they have a particular model still in stock. One sneakerhead asked @NikeStore about a particular shoe was still in stock and after a few times of asking, the Nike responded.
Going by the name of @andrewj_p, he sent a series of Tweets asking about a shoe giving the style number of 700098-007 and asking if a size 11 was in stock because he had a date.
Hey @nikestore Do you have Style Code: 700098-007 in a size 11? I have a date this week and would love to wear these. Please help! 🙏🏻

The product number 700098-007 is actually linked to the Nike Air Max 90 Lunar ‘Moon Landing’ (shown below). When released last year they sold out almost instantly and obtaining a pair will cost you anywhere from $600 to $1000 depending on size. Needless to say, andrewj_p knew what the shoe was and the hype behind them.
He then continues to ask about the shoes, while his friends jokingly tell him he doesn’t have a date.
@nikestore Any luck on those shoes for my date later this week?

@nikestore Still got me waiting for a reply. Usually you guys tweet me back with the quickness. Must be a new employee..,

Nike Store finally responding which had us rolling. We are sorry Andrew, but we are sure you can appreciate a good laugh and all the attention this has brought (not to mention the new Twitter followers).
@andrewj_p Two things. 1) We all know those AM Lunar90's are sold out. 2) We all know Netflix and chill by yourself doesn't count as a date.

Making sure that Andrew knows it’s all fun and games, Nike Store followed with a last response:
@andrewj_p It's all love, Andrew.

Sorry Andrew that they didn’t have the Air Max 90 Lunar ‘Moon Landing’ in stock, but you could try your luck on getting a pair at eBay. Good luck on your date next week.
