the people who returned the 300 pairs of messed up zippers. do you think there going to get brand new pairs or there just going to fix the zippers and send them back?
 
Talk to your local shops and network. That list that was put out today is not complete. There are at least 3 other boutique shops in my city alone that are getting them.

People didn't return them, they were taken out of the stock during inspection before being sold.

This shoe is as limited or more than the Nike Yeezy. The only thing different is they're spacing out the release of them. Kanye saying anybody who wants a Yeezy is going to get one is just saying don't worry there's more shoes coming. The 750 was always meant to be limited. Like someone said earlier a mass produced $350 shoe would sit on shelves all day long and Adidas don't want that with the first Kanye shoe right out the gate. They're doing it right to keep people fiending and then also help move that Roshe look alike when people strike out on these. They're no dummies.

Is this fact or speculation/educated guess?

Speculation/educated guess. But at this point with all that's come out of the 750 it's not too far off. It's gonna be slim pickin's come Saturday.

Ughhhhh. Thank you ?




opinion from another NT member- everyone has one just like a *********
 
"Overall quantities are VERY limited." ------ As someone who spent 3 hours and came up empty Saturday, I'd like to believe IBN, but this came STRAIGHT from corporate.

Corporate called it a phased roll out, but only mentioned as far as the 28th with it releasing, at the time, online and at consortium accounts. I added 'at the time' because the 21st drop wasn't even in the cards when I received this information. I don't know what caused them to do that. 

Sidebar: employees weren't even allowed discounts on these. Either adidas was being greedy, or the margins were really small on these. With the quality being reported as amazing, the latter might be true. 
 
 
Can we just get off the limited talk and wait things out. We're not reaching new grounds by repeatedly bringing it up.
 
Pretty sure these are limited and that's that. Like someone stated these shoes weren't just put into production. They have been in production many months before the release.

I agree. From the looks of it Kanye might just head to the direction just like Y3 and have his own line ( maybe ). At the moment people think it's limited ,but I feel like he trying to get his shoe out there to the masses. He just joined adidas not long ago anything can happen. Nike didnt take him seriously to begin with and adidas is giving him more options and possibilities.

It's prob the smart way to think right now. Looking at it rationally, limiting these won't cause the runners to sell in droves. Does every Jordan, Nike sell that isn't as nice as the others? Doubt people will buy the runners just because it's kanye. There isn't anything special or different about them.

Agree, people are really in denial and in the end, will be more disappointed in Adidas when they don't get their pair and start bad mouthing them. Until the next Yeezy comes out of course.

I don't understand why people are in denial about them being limited. It says it on Adidas website for crying out loud. Who knows maybe they'll release more if they get enough backlash but that's a huge maybe and a slim chance they will. The way this whole release has been handled is just a mess but the hype is there and that's all Adidas wanted along with those $350. People need to accept the fact that these are limited no matter what Ibn or anyone says. Unless it's straight from Adidas I ain't believing it.
 
was it just me or did anyone else hear that kanye quote in their head: "they're gonna be AVAILABLE!" when you added the shoes to your cart. i was too hyped.
