Scattered drops are the furthest thing from back in the day. They are essentially just being gate keepers for longer to drum up hype. If you actually enjoy that type of roleout you are a pretty pathetic consumer.I prefer the drops the way they are. Set release dates are corny. I like that NB lets stores sell em as soon as they get em. I don’t need to see these blogs hyping release dates for GRs months in advance. Posting shops of what the shoe could look like based on the color code, then posting pics of early samples, then fakes, then stock photos...
We don’t need that mess here.
Scattered drops are reminiscent of the way it used to be. I miss walking into a store and just seeing what was on the shelf and buying what I liked. Even back when only JB was doing set release dates store employees would always pull them out to show them to you and let you buy early.
