Team retail. Gotta keep this bread. Hope for a restock down the line. No biggie.
Just a thought: Nike really doesn't care how we perceive how they handle releases. Ive been buying Nike shoes for a very long time and one thing i can say having done campouts and lineups, dealing with the shadiness, witnessing the resellers, etc... Nike is probably outside of Apple THE BEST marketing company in America.
Adidas feeling the Yeezy wave? Jordan's sitting on shelves? Hype train dying down? Release a cornerstone of their brand FCFS in major metro cities for free publicity. Are they still top dog in sneakers? Of course. Is any press good press? Absolutely
Wont jump thru hoops or raise the blood pressure to cop some kicks with technology more than three decades old. $160 or bust.
They are just shoes...
