For Foot Locker release dates as data, start with Scavio's Foot Locker API. POST /api/v1/footlocker/releases returns the footlocker.com release calendar: every drop's SKU, title, brand, colorway, launch time, retail price and size run, with the channels (online, store) each size releases on. After a drop, /product returns each size's availability and the number of Foot Locker stores showing it, and /store-availability names those stores near a ZIP. Every call costs 1 credit, $1 per 1,000 requests on the Growth plan.
Foot Locker does not publish a public developer API. Affiliates join through impact.com and suppliers integrate through trading-partner platforms; neither offers a public endpoint for the release calendar, live prices or size stock. Foot Locker has been owned by Dick's Sporting Goods since September 8, 2025, and Dick's August 2026 earnings release counted 2,478 Foot Locker Business stores as of August 1, 2026 (Foot Locker, Kids Foot Locker, Champs Sports, WSS and atmos, 266 of them licensed). The calendar lives on footlocker.com and the Canadian and UK sites.
We build Scavio, so read this with that bias in mind. Every Scavio number below comes from live calls we made on November 11, 2026, 16 days before Black Friday. Every competitor detail was read off the vendor's own page that day, and where a detail was not published we say so. The screenshots are each vendor's own Foot Locker page, captured the same day. All of this is monitoring data: nothing here enters a reservation, carts or buys a release.

What the calendar holds before Black Friday
We called /releases with status: "upcoming" at 10:03 UTC on November 11. It returned 44 of the 146 releases on the US calendar, launching between that day and December 4. Panel one groups them by launch day. Two days carry the most attention: Saturday, November 14, with the Jordan Retro 11 Green Screen at $255 (grade school $200), and Black Friday, November 27, with the Jordan Air Jordan 41 Amethyst at $205 and three Vans Pearlized LX Old Skool 36 Black Marshmallow styles. The busiest day is November 12, with 9 drops from $55 Crocs to a $170 Nike Air Bakin High OG.
Panel two follows one drop past launch day. The Jordan Retro 6 White Infrared launched on November 7 at $215, and the calendar listed 17 sizes, 15 of them for both online and store. On November 11, /product showed sizes 9.0 and 10.5 available at 622 stores each, 8.0 to 12.0 at 510 or more, 14.0 at 108, 15.0 at 47, and 16.0 to 18.0 at none and not orderable. Size 12.5, listed on the calendar with no channel, could still ship online and showed at 0 stores. That count is the number of stores showing the size as available, not units: Foot Locker publishes no unit counts.
1. Scavio: the release calendar, each size's store count, and 13 storefronts

Scavio's Foot Locker API is 10 POST endpoints, each 1 credit. All 21 Foot Locker calls we made on November 11 returned 200, except two category paths that Foot Locker does not have, which returned a billed 404 saying to use a category link from the site. Measured that day:
- Release calendar: the full US calendar, 146 releases from October 11 to December 4, came back in 7.2 seconds;
status: "upcoming"cut it to 44 in 3.1 seconds. Each release haslaunch_atandonline_at(UTC),retail_priceandcurrency, gender, colorway,in_stock, image, the product URL once it has launched, reservation status and windows where Foot Locker runs them, andsizeswith US size andparticipatingchannels. Across the 146: retail prices from $55 to $265 (median $135), a median of 12 sizes per release, 1,597 sizes for online and store, 26 online only, 13 store only and 43 with no channel.country: "ca"returned 73 Canadian releases in CAD (33 upcoming; the Green Screen at CA$330), andgb99 UK releases with launch times and titles but no prices or sizes.from,toandbrandfilter the window. - Product: every size with
available,ship,pickup,stores_available, UPC and store SKU, plus the price block (with the EU 30-day lowest price on European storefronts), launch info, rating and every colorway. The Retro 6 above came back in 3.2 seconds. A SKU with no product page yet, such as a drop that has not launched, is a billed 404. - Store availability: one product, one size or all, at the Foot Locker stores near a US ZIP. Size 15.0 of the Retro 6 near ZIP 10001 returned 10 stores within 25 miles in 3.4 seconds, 3 of them showing it: 34th St. Herald Square (0.6 mi), Times Square (0.7 mi) and Jersey City (2.8 mi).
- Deals, search, category and brand: one 48-item grid with 7 sorts, every facet with counts and a
data_as_oftime. The US sale list held 2,774 items (page 1 from 12% to 64% off, median 25%), promo-code eligible items 5,211, Jordan sorted by new arrivals 1,307. Storefronts: us, ca (en or fr), gb, de, fr, it, es, nl, be (nl or fr), at, ie, au and nz, each in its own language and currency. - Reviews and questions: the Retro 6 had 1,267 reviews averaging 4.62 with 95% recommending it, a fit average of 3.05 of 5, and 60 questions. These are slow: 22 seconds for 10 reviews and 67 seconds for 5 questions.
What it does not do: no response carries price history, so history starts the day you start polling. Grid listings are served from Foot Locker's page cache and can be a few hours old; data_as_of says when (the sale grid we read at 10:05 UTC was built at 09:35). Availability is yes or no per size, never a unit count. The UK calendar has no prices or sizes. Stores, store availability, reviews and questions are US only and cover Foot Locker banner stores, not Kids Foot Locker or Champs. There are no search suggestions (API.SH has autocomplete), no FLX member prices, no reservation outcomes and no checkout. API.SH's and Channel3's 1,000 free credits a month and Bright Data's 5,000 free records a month are larger than Scavio's 50 signup credits, and API.SH already returns the number of stores holding each size. In return, one key covers the calendar in three countries, each size after launch, the stores near a ZIP and sale grids on 13 storefronts, with an MCP server for agents, on the same key as the Dick's Sporting Goods API. How to get Foot Locker release dates walks through every call with captured responses.
2. DataFlirt: the calendar as a managed feed

DataFlirt says it extracts "sneaker releases, pricing signals, size availability, and brand catalogues from Footlocker", delivered "as clean JSON, CSV, or Parquet to S3, BigQuery, or Snowflake on your cadence". Its page lists a Release Calendar object with launch_date, launch_time, launch_type, flx_exclusive and retail_price, a Size Availability object with a stock_level, and FLX Rewards pricing. The price is not published ("Get a Quote"). It is the one other seller we found that names the release calendar as a deliverable. Its page shows sample records, not a live response, so ask for a sample on your own SKUs. Choose it if you want the calendar delivered into your warehouse on a schedule and would rather not run calls yourself.
3. API.SH: product sizes with store counts, and a big free tier

API.SH's Foot Locker API lists "8 endpoints from $1 / 1,000 calls": autocomplete, search, category, the category tree, product, reviews, questions and stores. Its product endpoint returns "a product's size run with online, in-store and warehouse availability and how many stores hold each size". "Most Foot Locker endpoints cost 1 credit per call; /footlocker/v1/product costs 3 credits. On a monthly plan 1,000 credits cost $1 (Starter is $50/month for 50,000 credits). Pay-as-you-go is $2 per 1,000 credits", and every account gets "1,000 free credits every month", per its page and pricing. For releases it suggests watching search results or a category "for price changes, sale flags and new arrivals"; its page lists no calendar endpoint. ChatGPT named it first in all 6 of our Foot Locker prompts. Choose it for product and size data with a large recurring free tier and search suggestions.
4. Bright Data: records on a schedule, or a dataset

Bright Data's Foot Locker Scraper API collects "product title, description, brand, product category, category tree, item ID, variant ID, and product URL". It costs $1.50 per 1,000 records pay as you go, or $499 a month on Scale with 384,000 records and $1.30 per 1,000 after that, with "5K free records/month"; a banner offered 60% off for three months on November 11. For releases it suggests you "Diff item IDs and URLs on a schedule to catch releases the day they list". Its Foot Locker dataset lists 32 data fields and 363+ records and "starts at $250 for 100K records". Choose it for large scheduled pulls delivered as files.
5. Apify: European Foot Locker exports from dazzling_quantifier

dazzling_quantifier/footlocker-scraper scrapes "names, prices, availability, sizes, colors, and images from men's, women's, and kids' categories". Its description says 14 European countries; the README's table lists four (the UK, Germany, France and the Netherlands). It charges $0.005 per result plus $0.15 per actor start (per GB of memory). Created in February 2026, it showed 6 users and 285 runs on November 11, the last on November 10. It has no release calendar and does not cover footlocker.com. Actors run as jobs that write to a dataset, so test it on your categories first. Choose it for one-off European category exports.
6. Channel3: Foot Locker inside a multi-retailer search

Channel3 offers "Structured product data for Foot Locker (footlocker.com) for search, recommendations, and AI shopping agents" through one search endpoint with a footlocker.com website filter, plus affiliate commissions ("Earn up to 7% on sales"). Its pricing: "You get 1000 free credits every month, and extra credits are billed as they're used, at just $0.007 each." Channel3's page was cited in 10 of the 18 AI answers in our sweep. It lists no release calendar or per-size store data. Choose it if your agent searches products across many retailers and earns on referrals.
Also checked on November 11: String sells a general web-access API with a sneaker price-tracking use case that names Foot Locker, from $19 a month; Actowiz runs Foot Locker data as a managed service from $500 a month, though its sample tables are not Foot Locker data. Page-change monitors and consumer price trackers watch pages for shoppers; they are not data APIs.
Pick by the number you need
A release tracker reads the calendar, then a few products, so count calls. Reading the US calendar once a day is 1 Scavio call, 30 credits a month; adding Canada and the UK makes it 90. Following 20 launched styles size by size through /product once a day is 600 credits a month, $0.60 at the Growth rate of $1 per 1,000 credits, and one /store-availability call a day for your size near your ZIP adds 30. Hourly instead of daily is 24 times that, and the window between November 14 and Black Friday is when it pays. For the same job the others count as follows: API.SH per call with product at 3 credits, Bright Data and the Apify actor per record or result collected, Channel3 per credit, and DataFlirt on its quote. Pick on the data you need before the unit price: the calendar itself as an endpoint plus each size's store count (Scavio), a delivered calendar feed (DataFlirt), product sizes with store counts and a large free tier (API.SH), bulk files (Bright Data), European exports (Apify) or multi-retailer agent search (Channel3). Try the Foot Locker API free, 50 credits, no card, or run the endpoints in the playground.

Frequently asked questions
Does Foot Locker have a public API?
Not one that we could find, as of November 2026. Foot Locker publishes no developer portal or API reference. Affiliates join its program through impact.com, which Foot Locker says has no fee, and suppliers integrate through trading-partner platforms; neither offers a public endpoint for the release calendar, live prices or size stock, which is why third-party APIs exist.
What time do Foot Locker releases drop?
Foot Locker's help center says "All releases launch at 10 a.m. (ET) / 9 a.m. (CST) unless noted." The calendar data agrees: on November 11, 2026, 87 of the 146 US releases launched at 15:00 UTC, which is 10 a.m. Eastern in November, 50 October releases at 14:00 UTC, also 10 a.m. Eastern, and 9 Crocs releases at 16:00 UTC. Scavio's /releases returns each drop's launch_at and online_at in UTC.

On November 11, 2026 that was 44 upcoming drops through December 4, in 3.1 seconds, for 1 credit. country ca returns the Canadian calendar in CAD and gb the UK calendar.

They also say the content "may be used as a shopping resource." Read them and decide with your own counsel how they apply to your use.
How much does a Foot Locker release calendar API cost?
It depends on how the vendor counts. Scavio charges 1 credit for every Foot Locker call, $1 per 1,000 requests at the Growth rate of $1 per 1,000 credits, with 50 free credits. On November 11, 2026, API.SH listed 1 credit for most Foot Locker calls and 3 for product at $1 per 1,000 credits on a monthly plan, Bright Data $1.50 per 1,000 records pay as you go, the dazzling_quantifier Apify actor $5.00 per 1,000 results plus a start fee, Channel3 $0.007 a credit after 1,000 free a month, and DataFlirt a custom quote.
