Wow. Nike and sneakers in general have become like the most negative things in my life. I dont think I even want to do this *!@! anymore.

What is the purpose of Nike making these so limited? All they have to do is lie and say a certain shoe is limited and they'd still sell most of their stock.

Everyone thinks they're a shoe head nowadays. It's disgusting.

are these hitting regular footlockers? I got the impression it was only HOH and Nike Sportswear accts

Alright, what is really bad is I call Eastbay at 11:55 and I'm on hold. I let my boy know to call after we fail at NDC.  The kicker is he gets though after on hold for 10 minutes just for them to say that they are sold out of both colorways.  Meanwhile I'm on hold for another 15 minutes after he's done with his call.  WTH!!!  I just wanted to vent on the poor lady and yell at her!  How could someone who called 10 minutes after you and get through!!  Rant over!

Same here....

I lose passion for Nike and sneakers in general every crappy release like this.

As someone tweeted yesterday "When the acquisition of sneakers becomes a burden and is no longer a thrill......that's a problem." 

true $#!%

Well stated, Wally.

I couldnt've said it any better.. or should I say "worse"

 

[bigsupa]

this was easier than expected

I get making the galaxies limited, but the Orlando's were a GR colorway all the way. Nike lost money and pissed off their most loyal customers once again, a trend that seems to be getting more intentional on their part. It really is baffling, because the only hype this is building is that of the negative kind.

because they'd sit and hit outlets if they weren't soo limited 
Nike knows what they're doing, and they don't care for your feelings

 

[macjsonmyfeet]

Got a pair of Orlandos from both Easbay and Nike, I pray I can find a pair of the Fresh Mint's....

idk man it says on the Footlocker launch list they are. Might be for HOH but I'm still gonna check it out. This is just sad for a GR like the Orlandos to be gone this quick. I bet if they released the Air GO LWP again and put the limited tag on it they'll sell out as well.

 

[B Sox]

Man...just gave $194 to Kicks-Crew for the GITDs. I am ashamed. This is such a dope model that I've had my eyes on and it shouldn't have been this difficult to cop....Shaking My Head.

 

[sosickening]

Why not just say they're limited and make GR quantities? We all win lol

 

[zapatohead408]

man I understand the gitd being limited seeing as how its an ASG release but the Orlando colorway? Cmon Nike you know Damn well those didn't need to be limited.

%+@@ you Gentry, honestly wish the worst for him

 

[brooklynnyc3000]

I didn't even know these had 3m on them.... 

can't wait to rock em

It's just so sickening what Nike's been doing by creating demand and hype, but not enough to go around. What, they think I'm going to turn around and buy something else from their catalog to compensate? F that.

   L Train's on deck.  

I thought the Orlandos would be more or less like the Air Trainer SC 2's. I'm with Wally as well, this could have been a real good GR.

 

[drefus jones]

nike has turned into the booty warrior.

 

[shellz]

Seriously hate this company now! Can't even purchase a product. Ridic 

 

[dtb00201]

Thank you Gentry

 

[marioishot]
