). Anyone else's frags like that?
 
I'm beating a dead horse, but I don't see why for especially the "coveted" models and colors, Nike doesn't do a pre-order that is open for a particular window of time 6 months before production can begin (can only be refunded using a Nike.com/Nike credit gift card upon return) and after producing and fufiing orders after severl months, ship to consumers.

If this case, they're left with no excess stock, there is no market saturation, if you limit to 1-3 pairs per household, consumers flourish, there isn't much of a need to resell but if they want to they can order several and do so, there is no fights/riots/raffle or disgruntled consumer.

Sounds good but the could care less. They're getting paid regardless.

Nike thrives on the chaos. I'd say half of their customer base is only in it for exclusivity/ hype & limitednes. This allows products to market/ sell themselves. Your idea of everyone getting a pair will eventually eliminate about half of their customers just in it to stunt. It would be good for the customers just not the brand long term.
 
Bred>shadow>>>>>royals


i still dont see the hype for shadows. the melos would be extremely nice if they had a full leather treatment. those are really underrated to me. and i prefer royals over breds. flame suit on...
 
I love how this is one of those topics that we just always circle back too :lol:
