You're probably right my man. Plus Nike doing their fake stock outs to build hype (page right out of adidas's gameplan).
Nike has been doing this for a lot longer than Adidas
I'm sayin' though

4/20When are the golds dropping?
Not gonna continue beating this dead horse.don't give me that nah man. you looking even more foolish telling them off. Like people in here with fair complaints. they say their peace, vent, and usually move on. then you have double nonsense of people essentially telling them they either don't come to the forum enough to complain, or they didn't "do their homework" knowing damn well everyone takes L's for different reasons. Just let them live. who cares what they did or did not to to L, they L'ed because of whatever brands foolishness. Let them say thier peace and move on. you cannot stop them by compaining, so just let it ride out.
4/20
Yeah, it's a bit naive to make declarations about how people who missed out must've been lazy, incompetent, whatever. None of us know everyone else's situation. I was in a meeting this morning when these dropped. I don't get to stop a work meeting--especially one I'm running--so I can go back into my office and shop for sneakers. I was able to have lunch early so I popped into the nearby mall (I'm in L.A.) before noon and every store was sold out. Footlocker got 24 pairs. Somehow my girl managed to grab me a pair at a Shiekh somewhere, where they claimed to have received a total of four pairs. Not sure how that makes sense, but OK. The idea that something is an "easy cop" as long as you can be online or physically present at a store the moment they release might be realistic for one person, but it's not always realistic for everyone.
Easy would mean that they are still sitting. I wouldn't call these a tough cop however they are not easily found now. Not everyone can stand in line when the store opens or wait at the computer when there is an online drop.
I agree with you though. If you really wanted it, it was attainable.
That would be better for my walletThe Golds are dropping in May
Not gonna continue beating this dead horse.
If you got em, grats
If you tried hard and got the L, that sucks and I feel for you
If you were lazy, took the L and are salty, I have no sympathy

When are the golds dropping?
If you've got wide feet, yes you should be good.
The consensus is that these run a .5 small?
I wear a 12, so 12.5 should be good?
Walked into the mall at 10am, no one there, walked out with 2 purrrs
Exactly. Lots of people were in here talking about how it was going to be an ez cop, and possibly getting some pairs on discount. NO, everything nowadays is hyped don't take these releases for granted.
