Nike will ask for your order number. Just a heads up.

As for the bleeding, its on the top part of the toe box on my Beethovens. I haven't tried anything to fix it since (more times than not) that ends up making it worse.

If it is the glue, I wonder why it hasn't been an issue on the lateral side of the white/black/volts from this past summer. Weird.

Appreciate the info. But like flores0206 said, it's a manufacturing issue so perhaps Nike will cave even though I ordered through FTL. I'd recommend a fine tip white paint pen if it bothers you on your pair. It seems to do the trick. My only concern is throwing them in the washer down the road, but I don't think it should be an issue.

Can you guys share pics of the damage?  I just ordered mine and am curious as to how bad it looks.

I would, but I already used the paint pen on them. I couldn't stand looking at the mark so I ran to Walmart as soon as I could to fix it.

Where did you order from?

FTL....I tried rationalizing that I "only" paid $136 shipped so that I would be ok about it. It was either fix them or run the risk of not getting them again by taking them back. I'm happy with how they came out. Like I said before, they were pretty minor marks and on the medial side of the shoe so it wasn't like anybody was going to see it. I was just more annoyed that they came like that, but I'm over it now. Rocked them to the gym this morning

I have the similar problem with my sail-volt/black pair and unfortunately I can't remove it. Think it's somewhat of a dye.
