LOLIf this is Nike trying to build up hype then they should just quit it. They no longer have any exclusive that would compare to or get worldwide attraction like a Yeezy. The Yeezy has certainly surpassed the Jumpman. And this is coming from someone who has been collecting Jordan's since 2001.
bruh! Nike could announce that they are releasing 3000 pair of all red Just Don 2s and the internet would breakIf this is Nike trying to build up hype then they should just quit it.

Yeah he's hype now but to say he surpassed Jordan is like saying you're stronger than the guy benching 315 because you can do more standing calf raises... it's just not the same thing. He's definitely has HIS market but I honestly don't think Kanye can move holiday XI numbers. Nothing but respect to Kanye, dude is the male Oprah... his name makes **** move.If you think I am wrong then just look at the resale market. Every Yeezy is selling in the 1,000s, where as almost every Jordan is in the 100's; of course there are some outliers—for example, Fragments.
That being said, this is certainly all based on fads. In two or years Yeezys may no longer be relevant, and Jordan's may be dominant again. I guess, time will tell.

your girl is wack thenThat still isn't comparable. Perfect example: My girl never scene or heard of the blue Just Don 2's, but she knows what a Yeezy is. It just has more mass appeal, which in turn, results in more hype.

you are basing your whole argument on ONE shoe. adidas has no other shoe that resells like the Yeezy. Pusha Ts go for 500-600.That still isn't comparable.

Drop his name from the shoe, rename it as the Air Tantrum or some **** and drop em on every Adidas Yeezy release. But that would make that broad rant at his next show and he'd say Nike is scared or something, it's probably best that they just ignore him.Nike should just "retro" the Yeezy I's and II's periodically...that would cause mayhem in these streets
forgot where I was.but i don't want to derail the thread with yeezy vs nike talk.
lets get back focused on waiting for our OVO L-mail from nike
4 limited shoes a year in adult sizes every couple months vs mulitple GR's in full family runs every month...sounds legit. Oh my bad, thought you were talking about dollars, not hype.If this is Nike trying to build up hype then they should just quit it.

Its a lot easier to create hype when you release a shoe every quarter instead of a shoe every week. Nike sells out of 100 times more holiday XIs then Adidas does on a yeezy drop. Yeezys are great and sell, fantastic. How did they 950s and clothing work out for the resellers?In regards to hype—which is what I was getting at—he is certainly surpasses the Jumpman. As for the XIs, if Yeezys were to release around Christmas time and they were GR, they would blow the XI numbers away.

That's funny because from what I remember people hated the 2s
