I ordered grey FKs on 7/19 and got finishing touches email on 7/27. Shipped 7/29.
LUCKY YOU!

I'm probably not gonna be one of them to pay for that much, maybe half of that. maybe....

If someone wanted my pair that bad then they can have em.
I think those emails are complete ********. I feel your pain man, I ordered my black pair on 7/1, finishing touches on 7/11, shipped 7/25, whole two weeks later, it's frustrating.
if the MC option comes back after the Beethoven release, that'll be cool. even after a week or two. the problem is... there's probably gonna be a new release every few weeks from here on. LoLI'm thinking if they bring them back it will be for a 2-3 hour timeframe. Nike acts like they are trying to keep these limited. Plus they want to make sure the thirst stays alive for the Beethovens. I can actually see another flyknit option pop up on NDC before the MC's come back IMO.
do it!! I didn't get a code but they gave me 15% off my order.GOING TO CALL AND COMPLAIN, MAYBE I CAN GET A COUPON CODE OUT OF THE CALL! LOL!
duuuuude. i hope your right. but i'd bet you're not,
Really, Nike is a corporation, responsible to it's stockholders, and stakeholders. If they can make money (and they can) on the MC FK then they will. It is absolutely not in their best interest to eliminate supply (and I'm not talking about limited releases - that builds brand excitement/equity and keeps hardcore collectors interested). My guess is they got caught with their pants down, and they did not properly anticipate the demand. My guess is the FK pieces are blanks, to be cut down to the appropriate shoe size, and they just underestimated how many blanks they'd go through. And since it's not standard FK they have to go back to production. The only reason Kick-Screw is charging $TooMuch is that people are freaking out that it might not return. Nike would literally be shooting themselves in the foot to not bring it back, and while that might seem to be a move they do a lot, I'm not convinced that this time it was intentional.
I hope I'm right as well, but if I'm not I have MP's.
duuuuude. i hope your right. but i'd bet you're not,
I don't think the MC thing is similar to daily quotas. I think they just flat sold out and have to make more. And I think a little delay/anticipation is good for sales when they go back on.The mc pair was my first id ever so I'm not an expert , but I don't think they're coming back. Just noticing on IDs if they're sold out for the day... A message pops up saying they're gone for today but keep designing and you can order at a later time. No such option with MCs.
