The Ray Allen, Rip Hamilton, and Gerald Wallace PE colorways should have been released. Its too bad we are not getting ID options for this shoes.

My latest pair of XX8s showed up today! Awesome!

It sucks the XX8's are so limited that if you don't get them the first day you're SOL.

I sort of like these, but they don't sit long enough for me to really consider it.

The only XX8 that has been pulled back by Nike were the Black Stealths
because they did not want them to be sold at the same time like the
black/electric greens and the limes (Bad timing to launch 3 colorways
of one model at once)
fact is that Nike produced quite a low amount of the XX8 in every colorway generally, not because
they retail at 250 bucks but because they release much more colorways of this model than
on the previous models.


I've been told first hand by employees at different Footlockers that Nike had them ship back whatever stock they had left after a week or so. My local high volume HoH then got a restock after that happened which sold out pretty much same day. They weren't so happy to return their stock but it seems like you have to do whatever Nike tells you to as a retailer.

Doesn't make sense because the two HOH I go to had all four thermals for quite some time. Why would they return to stock and yet scattered sizes sit on shelves?

i believe that the plan WAS to release multiple CWs at All Star weekend and that the Black Stealths ("jokers") were pulled due to complaints about the offensive wording on the outside.

Though plausible, I personally don't buy into this speculation because all the camos except the thunder camos have the same script.

What colorways do they have of the XX8?

None.

ES got stripped, and not just the shoes, with the wave of releases 1.5+ weeks ago.
