Finishline release calender.
If not true then i guess they pulled them back due to the frank thomas thing?

Yea they had to have been pulled. The royal big hurts were supposed to have dropped on May 2 and nothing. I messaged finishline yesterday and they had no more info for the royal big hurts. Pretty sure it's a done deal for this shoe unless they come up with a quick settlement.

Is it worth paying Frank Thomas though?
I'm a die hard Reebok guy and I paid MSRP for my pairs but the reality is that this is a shoe destined for massive discounts. Unless they have massive profit margins, they are going to take a major L on this shoe.
Reebok's off to a very poor start in '14 vs. '13 in my honest opinion. Kami I reception has been lukewarm (even the OG colourways), the Rail has been a bust, Big Hurt may not even hit the market with the way things are playing out and Blacktops are anyone's guess at this stage.
Any of you guys feel Reebok should've brought back some of the ICE sneakers?

I feel the materials should have been a bit nicer on the OG K1. I passed purely because of this.

Agreed on this brother. They ran the exact same materials as the Kami II and jacked up the price by $25. I'm gonna sound like a warped record here, but I also did not like the removal of the solid green toecap on the 'Sonics' colourway. I didn't purchase the 'Sonics' colourway because of that reason.
The Big Hurt runs the same materials as the K II and also retails for $125 - you'd think they were already paying Frank Thomas at this price point.
Would've made sense for them to call the shoe 'Reebok Baseball Trainer', use a generic insole and charge $100 for the sneaker.

If they got deaded on the black royal pair I think it's safe to say the black grey won't release either. They had a link for the royal pair and were actively promoting the release but the link was taken down as was the shoe itself.

I ordered the black/white pair from Culture Kings and the white/black pair from Titolo. Has anyone ordered from these sites, if so how long did it take to come?

I came home to these. They are really comfortable. I usually wear a size 13. These's are 12.5. Can't wait till I get my black/white pair next week.
