I checked the morning of & they never (or at least I couldn't find them) on Adidas.com. Didn't know these who be so beasted over on Ebay though I see multiple auctions at double & triple retail, smh.
Same here. I added them to my cart, got the long loading pinwheel, & then an error message telling me that I took too long & they have been removed from my cart even though they were never in my cart, SMH. Ah well on to the next one.
Exactly. I feel like the hype on the SB8s has all but died down & they weren't limited at all. I feel it would be a fair trade imo. Funny thing is I most likely won't even get to sniff the DB 9's but if I do I can admit that they are a shoe that I wouldn't wear.
Well in comparison to the other OG CWs they are definitely the most slept on & that's in most part IMO due to MJ not wearing them on court. The HYPE around them will be unreal when they retro in 2013 though, lol.
That's b/c all of the above have retroed recently. Most of the kids/resellers who cop the XIs every Christmas now probably don't even know the Columbias exist. After they release next Christmas they'll be right up there with the rest. After the Concords & Snakeskin Lows Columbias are my favorite.
I got the feeling that most people who are trying to cop these are doing so for trade bait (myself included). I'd be more than happy to trade these for some DS or VNDS Lebron SB 8s or DMP 6/11. These two have alluded me FOREVER.
While I agree he's a great player & probably the best passer in the game, I don't really see him being able to sell shoes for Nike/JB especially considering the big names they've already got.
