, they need to keep they hype train rolling
 
Considering that some Adidas Originals retailers got only 70 pairs and the word was some FootLocker retailers got 45. Obviously not everyone is going to be able to cop them. This sucks for me, because I grew up rocking Adidas, last year I could cop any Adidas shoe I wanted at really good prices. This year, not so much. 
 
im gonna tight if i have to pay resell for those moon/duck boots.

gonna be walkin around NYC like this though.
 
Everyone (***with appropriate funds, bots, and family members at disposal for raffles, all living within the vicinity of stockists who are willing to camp for days***) will get a pair of yeezys.Yall missing the fine print

Such a strange show but I can't stop watching.

I love that show.  They did not air last nights finale due to the unfortunate events of what happened to the reporters yesterday.  I think the finale must have had something similar in it.

Yeah, they said it was mad similar, that's why they pulled it. Will they change it up then ? 
 
the really limited Adidas sell for peanuts...

I have three pairs --- Urist Pro Models, Bread & Butter Flux, and Closky Adicolors

people don't want limited shoes ... they want hyped shoes.

Yeah like if you put it into perspective, what resellers  were asking for the Raf Simmons Stan Smiths or the Yohji Yamamoto Stan Smiths is around what the Yeezy line retails for.

In my mind I was like how similar can it be?  But then I thought well if there were any scene where shots were fired/violence and reporters were present then that would be similar enough to pull it.  I presume it will be changed as they are to air the finale on Sept. 2nd.

It'll be interesting to see what they do because I would think they would've completed shooting months prior to the actual season airing. But I guess not. 
 
Duh, every single release has been limited. Everyone with that "But his barber said..." and "Kanye said..." It doesn't matter what anyone says, it's what Adidas actually does that matters.

Adidas has a strong foot hold in international markets, I guess Nike / Jordan Brand is instilled through pop culture in the US. The way Adidas is going about these Yeezy releases, they're trying to change that perception, hence why for the time being these sneakers are so limited. They're not only thinking about retail, but even about the resell market, peeps are paying $800 or so for these, whereas you can get AJ1 breds/royals or for a bit less even Shadows, which are very iconic sneakers. Forget yeezy's but the resell on some of the Pharrell supercolors line was close to what the Jordan IV's that dropped this year, were going for. I think it's nothing but that Adidas is trying to imply a business strategy to change the way people view their brand.
