More Air Prestos?

Re: Lightning - Slam Jam socialism is out.  End just sold out (got in with an XL...will probably arrive before NDC). Well Gosh is almost out...just XS left.  Euro sites going down fast. Tomorrow will be interesting.

Brutal honey has sizes left.
 
why are these selling out?

One of the more noticeable, forward thinking Nike shoe released. Minimalist design, superior comfort, and graphic overlays are things the Presto helped bring to the forefront.

I am biased because I had a ton of these back in the day. We probably wouldn't have a Roshe or things with crazy graphics if it were not for this shoe.

I was all in on Prestos too...I'm just surprised they're selling out.

I think it is just the Lightning hype right now. The Geneology of Free went quick, both BR were accessible if you wanted them, and the Lightning had a lot of blog play behind it. Brutal Honey seems to still be available from the shops that dropped tonight.

I think the rest will be an easy grab unless it is the Olympics or something new and "limited".

Maybe the trouble at home (cause of the loud graphics) but not the brutal honey. Prestos were sitting last time around. There's definitely an unfortunate new hype surrounding these.

Alpha project was a great time period for Nike. They just need to bring back the original 13 with the old alpha project box. I used to have stacks of those in high school.
 
Hoping these will sit somewhat tomorrow with all the releases scheduled..seeing how fast these went overseas im not too hopeful anymore lol
 
I feel like the demand for these in EU is higher than in US. Please correct me If I am wrong. Phew I'm glad I decided to do a phone order for my pair though.

Good looking out. Copped here so I don't need to deal with NDC this morning. Google's been doing a lot of work in my neighborhood the past few days, so my internet's been on the fritz. Didn't want to risk my connection cutting out when they drop on NDC.

I'll be sure to take some comparison pics of these retros and my OG together. One thing I noticed about the retros that does bug me a bit, is the core of the lightning strike starts at the top of the tongue and spreads downward, unlike the OGs where the core was in the middle of the tongue and spread outward. Not a huge deal, but I do prefer the way the black laces looked against the white based tongue as opposed to the way they blend in more with the retro.
