The CDGs dropped not too long ago. As far as the pipeline goes, no idea. Supply chain issues messing everything up allegedly.

my fault i wasnt counting those, im talking normal foams not fashion week foams but good point, ill be on the look out good to know its a supply chain issueThe CDGs dropped not too long ago. As far as the pipeline goes, no idea. Supply chain issues messing everything up allegedly.
First of all, all of the foams that released last year sold out quickly, for RETAIL. In past years, Nike released so many garbage colorways of the foams that of course they were going to go on sale.Is it really? Why make foams which cost more and usually go on sale when you can pump out GR dunks that cost way less and sell out each time.
1. In 2017, Nike did a poor job of building up hype for the shoe. The royals had their release date pushed up at the last minute with lots of people unaware.Nikes top selling shoes are Air Force 1s and Monarch’s and tanjuns or whatever them ****s are called …they’ll be fine not selling foams. Besides, it is not uncommon for a shoe to be in and in and out of the limelight. Foams are cool, but even the beloved colors went on sale during the 20th anniversary.
I think this is a rebranding thing, not an economics thing. Everything you said makes sense but they aren’t worried about if they will sell, it’s who they’ll sell to.1.

2. Foams at the time were at their lowest point in terms of hype. 2017 was peak Yeezy 350 and Ultraboost/NMD hype. Knit shoes were the rage and people just weren’t wearing bulkier shoes. Even then and even with foams being super GR (a very good thing) they STILL sold well.
3. Times have changed, 2021 showed that foams would sell, all of the foam releases in 2021 sold out fast. Even the 520 dollar CDG foams sold well. 2022 is the perfect time for Nike to have some big foam releases.
4. If you don’t care about foams releasing, wtf are you doing in this thread? Just unwatch this thread and go subscribe to the Nike Dunks thread.
That was Nikes attempt at divesting from y’all but I’m guessing those high fashion foams didn’t capture the demographic they had hoped it would, otherwise they’d have more coming. Supply chains are slow but not stopped. There’s no precious metals that need to be mined in order to make a pair of these lol. Nikes choices are just coinciding with these economic conditions, not being influenced by them.Its gotta be production related cuz they cancelled the penny 3s last year along with like 3 pairs of mens foams and its been dry ever since except the cdgs
those articles lag. Oct 21 and it was already alleviating at the time of writing. Unless adidas bought the world supply for their crocxyeezyThis could be why FOAMposite releases have been dry:

Affected furniture, mattress and boat production all last year.
You do realize that sneakers are produced like 6 mos before release, right? And it takes a number of months before they go into production to plan and design them? So using that timeline, Nike would've been in the planning stages for new 2022 Foam releases sometime around early '21, during the peak of the shortage. So, they probably shelved any and all plans on Foams due to material shortages, increased costs and unknown future availability, and will likely return to them when production has more certainty surrounding it.those articles lag.

top 3:
monarchs started the dad shoe weird a** balenciaga trend
tanjuns are the favorite sneaker of peloton riders everywhere
Ups are the new Uggs
and foams get you into the secondary search line at security checkpoints
they are slowly turning the faucet off
1. conspiracy is a grand reachNot everything is a grand conspiracy to disappoint/anger customers.
You got it wrong. . Nike does everything to satisfy it's shareholders ... #bottomline1. conspiracy is a grand reach
2. everything nike does is to satisfy their target market. if they take away from a less desired customer group to satisfy the target, then technically they are actively disappointing customers
according to the people on this thread, theyve completely cut resources from foams to satisfy more popular lines. That alone would be a direct action by nike, choosing one segment over another, inevitably leading to disappointment.

bc nike talk isnt the consumers they are worried about. Do not take this as me defending them. I dont like nike anymore as theyve made it impossible for me to buy. I cant cop jordans with out a robot and i cant cop foams without a time machine. but they care a lot about a specific segment. We are not that segment.That's a fact. It's been apparent for awhile now that Nike doesn't gaf about its consumers lmao.
