We just learned October’s ROTMs (including Essentials & Classics ROTMs) are held up due to these port strikes, and we expect some store titles will also be affected. Once we have more clarity around the situation, we’ll have a better idea of exactly which store titles have been impacted.
We don’t yet have an ETA on when these strikes will cease and deliveries will resume. Still, we expect the October fulfillment run to be delayed, specifically for orders that include the October Essentials and Classics ROTMs.
Any orders containing only in-stock items will ship on their usual schedule. This includes store orders purchased with the direct ship option, Swaps, and October Hip-Hop ROTMs only. Orders that include any of the affected titles will not be fulfilled until those titles are received.
We are working with our vendors to get updates on all projects that could be affected by these strikes and will post updates in the production calendar. We will also share an update as soon as we have an updated timeline on October’s fulfillment.
We always do our best to mitigate delays when possible; however, this is entirely out of our control. We apologize for the inconvenience and will continue to keep you updated as we learn more.

Hi there,
As you may already know, as of midnight Monday (9/30), an East Coast port strike is stalling all incoming sea containers. Much of our inventory is shipped via sea, so we will likely experience immediate and potential ongoing delays.
