I almost think, like some of you said,that this is a test run for the future.I almost think they will release huge numbers on the other colors/releases.
 
I'm hoping this was a test run for their servers so come next week they can expect the load from today and we can all eat the 28th. This just means more homework to do next week. Let's hope stores in our areas get them. At this rate I would even rather have FCFS so I can just camp and get it over with. Retail for bust for me. I have al y2 and I'm cool with that.

Side note anyone know the MMM that looks like these. If I miss out might as well go for what he tried biting the design from lol.
 
This had to be a test run. I've seen barely anything on eBay Twitter or ig. Please correct me if you seen over 100 people claiming to have snagged a pair. I've looked and looked.
 
I was actually able to get through using Paypal and received an order confirmation email from Adidas on a size 10. I just kept 15 windows open from my cart for checkout and kept opening each consecutive step around 50 times or so. No bot. #TeamManual
 
i also struck out this morning. that maintenance page got me like

Honestly if this was a test than Adidas more amateur than we all think they are. No big legit corporation would test like this.

This wasn't any test.  Big IT departments are able to do offline load testing so they know exactly what kinds of numbers their servers are able to hold up to.  Its either really bad forecasting, or Adidas being no better than Nike.  Im going with number two and neither of them really care what we think as long as they sell out the shoes they are throwing at us.

Agreed. This wasn't a test. They don't give a damn about helping you get this shoe. Just happy to sell them all at $350. No resistance to the price. Wouldn't be surprised to see the Yeezy Season 2 start at $400 or $450 to see if it crashes and sells out again. Adidas is thrilled the price didn't scare anyone away.

Well the adidas twitter said theres going to be more pairs on the site on the 28th and that theres going to be pairs available at adidas Consortium accounts. Now the only question is where is the list of adidas Consortium accounts. Anybody have a list or now of any?

They confirmed more pairs on the site on the 28th? Did I miss something? Last I saw it just said stay tuned for the February 28th release.
 
And yeah the thread cleared out mad quick. Just came back from work and only had a few pages to get through as compared to a few pages a minute the last few days :rofl:

Yeah they said on the adidas orginals twitter. People asked if there would be pairs on the website and they replied yeah. But Im trying to focus on the adidas Consortium accounts. Theyd probably be a safer bet. You know any stores with the accounts?

No idea man, I wish I did especially in my area. Don't know if I'm happy about more pairs on the site or not, don't want to waste another day of my life haha. But I'll def let you know if I can somehow get my hands on a list or something.

I'm not from the US but Undefeated, Kith, Concepts are the ones I'm fairly certain about. You shouldn't get your hopes up though. The European Consortium accounts that confirmed numbers are only getting 12 pairs each.
 
Thanks, and Ill keep looking too. If I find one, Ill send it to you. Im wondering if its worth it to just get a bot...SMH

Yeah I remember reading that. Its gonna be tough either way. Im wondering if I should just get a bot for adidas. Im skepticle because A) Ive never been a huge fan of bots and usually I dont need em anyway and B) Im seeing mutliple reports that theres gonna be alot more drops of these. Ibn said it on his Instagram and yeezy already announced another color way plus the 2 low tops hes shown. Do you think its worth it?
 
I got super lucky and copped. HAAAAAAAN!
link dropped around 8:58-59 PST and checked out by 9am!
