Again, this is only evidence of one sneakers popularity vs. Another...it doesn't mean that Nike produced more and because Nike made more people decided that they no longer cared to have a pair.Theres no actual evidence but it can be seen in the resell market, well at least for me. There wasnt any stunt of massive presale hype by resellers. On release day, there wasnt a large amount of resell listings. Once orders came in also wasnt a huge uptick as well and yes this is all comparing to the grinches. The heck FL had a reservation process for the grinches..... all stars didnt... they didnt even release them on said release date( did a quiet release without shedding any info to the masses) So that's my take on the production numbers. I feel they had the least of any of the rereleased models dating back to last year's releases.
I really don't subscribe to the narrative that the sneaker buying public is so fickle that they would be interested in a particular release, only to find out that there were more pairs available, and did a 180 on the release altogether.
Rumor has it there were about 12k pairs of trophy room Jordan 1s. I NEVER believed that if Nike made 250k pairs that one single person that was interested before, wouldn't be interested if the latter was the case.
