I'm in no way naive about Nike and their care or lack thereof for the consumer. As stated, the consumer is a means to an end. Pawns more or less.
Most releases that I want bad enough I wind up getting. My sentiments weren't based off of being salty or anything, I was able to land my pair of White Cement's on RD.
I kind of veered off topic in response to a few posts that came before mines, it was moreso about the "limited" releases such as the Galaxies which cause mass hysteria. It's a calculated tactic to generate buzz, fallout be damned.
Yes, all they care about is the fact that the buzz behind the brand is at an all time high and anything that happens from here on out is just icing on the cake. If it reaches a point where you have to cancel releases then yes, it's time for something to be done. Nike doesn't control how people react, but they're certainly playing a masterful chess game.
I was pretty much venting a little frustration in general about what this whole culture is turning into. I and many of us contribute to it, but what we have on our hands now is something crazy. Did any of us forsee it reaching this level?
Anyways, this is moreso a general stance rather than something having to do with this particular shoe. Not like a few consumers are going to make a big difference...
It all starts with 1 person...
1 person can make a huge significant difference for many...example: Martin Luther King

They've reached Apple territory.

Its looking real promising, the employees are coming out with they pairs saying that we should get ours. 9:30 rolls around and one of the guys that was working that day comes outside and says "we're only selling to Black badge employees today" . Everybody's like %@%?. And then he says " we're releasing to everybody else tomorrow. Never heard that before at that store. I ended up calling my Uncle to tell his black badge homie to hurry to the store and grab me a pair for $85. But my I couldn't get my boys any.
