^^Ebay only apparently, but grab the lube. Seriously, it's like each store they were released at only had 1 size 12. Smaller sizes were still available 2-3 days after RD.

How do the Bushwackers fit?

i'd say they run true to size, but will be ever-so-slightly loose in the toebox area. overall...very, VERY, comfy, and hardly any break-in needed.

wow! 
i think i may need to pick up that last pair...the "sprite" like lookin' ones...while it's still the summertime, haha!
looks like the only pair that's not currently available on the saucony official website is the "green bay packer" lookin' pair...not bad price either...$80. definitely cheaper than any of the collabs...

Fall Grid 9000's
i love grids, and i don't know what it is but they all look cheap. aside from the collabs that is. but its weird because i have gr shadow 5/6000 that are on point. so i know they don't make cheap shoes.

Those grey/purple and grey/blue/citron Grids are awesome, may have to pick them up if they're still around after a few weeks.

That's retail. They'll drop, but by the time they do there will only be odd sizes left.

Anyone successful with the Saucony x Solebox release today? It seems like they only had a total of 10-pairs available once they finally released them online. Judging from the Twitter responses, people refreshed their carts for checkout for over 6-hrs and still came up empty-handed...

i know quite a few people that succeeded. i wasnt one of them. i was talking to a guy in berlin to grab me both pairs and i would trade him something and help him with US releases in the future. he said he would grab them but he didn't hit me up to pre-pay so i wasn't sure he was still gonna come through. so i didnt want to rely solely on him so i tried to secure it myself online. i threw both colors in my cart immediately after the grey popped up online. had the same issue as everyone else though, couldnt get paypal to show up. after a while i gave up and only tried sporadically on my iphone. it's unfortunate not everyone could get theirs, but it's really great of them to even allow the opportunity.

Crazy release! I really wanted these so I had to pull some strings, but I was fortunately able to secure the Pink Devils. Still want to know exactly how many pairs were available online...

Just got news from my connect out in Germany. He said they were limited to 300-pairs TOTAL (150-Grey;150-Pink). Considering there were over 100 people camping out and most likely getting one of each colorway, they really didn't have much available to put online for the rest of the world. Still nice that they, at least, gave us an opportunity to purchase them instead of selling them exclusively in-store...

it was 150 grey, 200 pink. and i know for a fact a few pairs made it outside of solebox. nothing wrong with hooking up old friends. im sure hikmet has been around long enough to understand what the demand is. if he really expected them to completely sell out, he would not have shipped out as many pairs i heard went out or even suggested there would be a chance to cop online.

Regardless, that's still a small amount produced for the demand. As for giving everyone outside of Germany a chance to cop, their twitter said that they'd release unsold pairs at an unannounced time in order to not crash their servers. Well they released at an unannounced time, but a lot of people were overloading their servers the whole day that it didn't even make a difference. I heard that when they released, you could go through all the steps with no problem except the final payment screen...
Also, made it outside of Solebox? Like pairs from that 350 amount or extra pairs were made and not counted as available-for-purchase pairs? If Hikmet is that owner with the infamous Yeezy bathtub photo, my guy out there said he's a really chill dude...
