Selfish much?
The amount of snakerheads in the US is WHY they're being held back from a US release.
Plenty of people to buy fusions/CDPs etc, why would they release better quality products when they can save them for later?
Overseas however, JB aren't doing so well. All those CDP restocks on Footlocker are returned stock from Europe.
So, overseas JB have to step their game to make a profit. In the US however, all they have to do for now is keep doing
what they've been doing the last year. Fusions, packages, questionable colorways and quality.
If you want to blame someone for this, blame the very sneakerheads to whom you referred, the ones willing
to buy the sub-standard shoes that JB are releasing in the US.
They're not too likely to redirect stock because a few people rang to complain. The shoes are being ordered, paid for, and probably shipped soon.
What stock retailers send back may be sent to the US.
Until that happens, or there's an official US release date, or you buy them through some other source, you'll probably just have to wait.
