Don't understand this logic. If they wanted to build "hype" for a retro, in my mind, they should just stop releasing em for a while. Thats how you build anticipation, not by diluting the market with trash.
The logic is that if we release items that are "worse" than the original people will complain and gripe about said items and wish upon many a star for the originals, then when people are informed that the originals are re-releasing they typically sell fast and hard

Kinda along with the saying "You don't know how good something is till it's gone", people are usually ever so grateful after the find something they lost
 
:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

The majority of Nike's customers don't give a **** about quality, man :lol:

:lol: i'm just saying, I could see Nike throwing together some messed up crap...and that wouldn't sell out. but if quality is on point (or at least not effed up) I think these will move

How are you gonna miss something when its gone if its not really gone? Your tryin to say that weaker releases makes the heart grow fonder, not absence. That doesn't make sense to me. Also putting out severely underwhelming pairs won't encourage people to cop re-releases and good cw. They were gonna cop anyway cause its a good release. I doubt the average consumer is thinking "Damn, I really want more royals now since thermal and weatherman have dropped." They wanted another pair after the recent retro dried up. I have a pair of the recent royal release and hoh and if they re-released em tomorrow I'd get another pair. That has nothing to do with seeing trash collect dust on shelves. Just my opinion.

I have no idea why you feel the need to hype the shoes. just let them release and you do you. there is not enough info out there to know if they shoes will sell out or not.

a super GR like the free willy foams = they aren't
limited like Oregon foams = they sell out

do you know how many pairs will release? do you even know the retail?

if they raise the price from $250 or so to $275 for the EXT type of shoe then you think they will still sell out?

If you are really feeling the shoes then its best to lay low and don't hype them. easier purchases.

it's gone because it's not available. although foams as a whole are there, the colorways that you want aren't and it appears that most of you miss those colorways and would give an arm and a leg for em to drop. And Nike, while they try new things, already has those retros y'all want planned out because they know whenever they do release em y'all will hop all over em. Prime example is how "New Coke" flopped but when they brought back "Coca Cola Classic" it outsold everything LINK

:lol: I actually saw a tv special/documentary on Coke detailing its history and that misstep. Not a good example here. They thought they could add revenue with the new formula and gain greater market share. It flopped and many consumers flipped to the comp. They had to go back. Coke was beloved for generations before the experiment.

But what explains the selling out of pearls eggplants and royal releases and re-releases in a very small window with no filler drops in between? All I'm saying is if its a strong dope cw its gonna sell out regardless. Like metallic red pewters coppers pines, etc. If anything your example shows what can happen and that is turn off consumers untill you drop something that is generally liked

relax....theres what 20 people on this forum? you think people are going to buy the shoe because i think it will sell out? little ole me?..lol no ones going to buy the shoes because little old me likes them..is that what you do? if you see a hot shoe that you want, coming out soon you say you hate it because ur scared of people buying it?..if they are a hot shoe they will sell out regardless..even if they were pigskin football foams people would buy..im saying people are suckers for new things no matter what it is..i don't care if people buy the shoe...i don't care if its hyped up..thats going to happen no matter the circumstance..reguardless..if its an EXT those 3 letters will just add to the hype anyways..if its not an ext and the price is raised they stll sell..if people listened to what i had to say that bad maybe ill buy a bunch of mud and tell people its rare mud and sell all of it..i don't think i have that much power

i kinda agree///people see trashposites everywhere and think "damn i remember the nice ones with the solid simple colorways" it makes them want the original colors more..

idk why they just can't think of something better instead of the prints on foams..oh wait nike is a BUSINESS lol $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ time is money they'll do anything for a buck
 
and i do agree..let em drop and see what happens..but its common sense they will sell out no matter what i say..its a new thing..**** people will buy just to see what they are like in hand

I'm going to look for this message when they drop and see if you are the male version of  Ms Cleo for the new "idea" to "trash" the foam.
 
Its common sense marketing. Im more looking at it from nikes point of view. Wen they dropped the printed foams people went nuts. Then ran out of ideas and put wack patterns on them. Some of u made the best of it and used acetone. But anytime something new comes out..thats just how it is. These will definitley go fast

Acetone.. Yes.. The only way im going to make seude customs is by getting some sand paper or some sort of removal.. I guess because people had better ways to make a bad foam worthwhile.. they said.. Suede is the solution!!! Now if we give them Suede.. they cant change our ****ed up product.. Ha Ha.. Middle Finger To You.. Custom'ers

They are going in on you hard over that... Seems like alot of commotion in here over something that's not that serious... That's none of my business tho lol
