I caught a W this morning from Kith. The metallic silver reminds me a bit of the Fila Grant Hill 4's which were one of my first pairs of non-Payless shoes growing up :lol:

I think it’s pretty common bigger sizes are produced in lower quantities, not to screw over big footers, but because of less demand.

What are you referring to? Which pair?

If the big sizes consistently sell out first I’d say there’s an imbalance. Talking about the 1000s here but I’ve been noticing it more and more across the board. I feel like years ago it was always 9-11.5 that would sell out first. Really caught my eye when I stumbled on this resale distribution for an unnamed shoe.

I could be wrong, but I think production numbers/percentages as far as sizing goes, doesn’t vary too much, more than anything, it’s the demand.

With all the complaining about NB going on, what was the name of that one dude that did nothing but complain about the brand and would call out corporate dudes by name.

"Joe Grondon! I know you read this thread you *****" and stuff like that.

It was funny as hell

Was it like runners781 or some series of numbers like that? I swear that troll is still posting under a different name. XD

The sad thing is this is true for evert shoe drop. People say resellijg is dead but if you're a sz 11+ its alive and well. Cant be waitin for pairs to hit a disco unless its somethin no one wants and even then.
 
anywhere got them silver 1000's in size 12

sucks i really wanted to think about those first if i really needed them.. didnt think they would sell out in size 12 that quickly. feel like this pair is way better than the JFG pairs.

Well, they're calculations are off, and it's not just NB or Nike/JB, it's literally everyone. Every single release, size 11+ goes first. You look through the shoes whenever any store is having a sale, almost nothing from 11-14. Look at resale prices on almost everything, if you're size 10+, you are paying more, sometimes significantly more. Then Nike/JB started doing all of these "women's exclusive" releases and size 9-10.5 (biggest options) sell out and everything else sit and go to outlets. These brands need to all recalibrate their production numbers.
