Nike Air Yeezy Red October 2 Thread Officially Released VIA NDC 2/9. No BUYING/SELLING/TRADING.

[seandon23]

please dont fire off an answer to make me look like an idiot. was just wondering this for a while. why wont nike just flood the market with yeezys since hes gone now? or does he own the right to the shoe? they arent gaining anything from the resell value. is it bc they love the hype? or do they want to move forward or what? thanks in advance.

Idk if they would now but they deff could've done it while he was with them. Kanye said that he wanted the shoes to be more available but nike kept them limited so I think that nike wants to bring hype to their brand

Do red Octobers have 3m?

 

[alp]

Your version does, they also have scales

 

[ziggybubbles]

Nike just wants to create hype and make the **** limited. They need to just pull some ye symbols off these and flood it.
I have always thought it'd be better for nike to not limit releases because I feel that by limiting production isn't one elimiataing
Potential profit?

I don't think the profit margin is as high as other shoes... again, this is just my guess, but in moves like this I always follow the $$$$... they are a billion dollar company for a reason, so if the release won't make dollars, than it won't make sense for Nike.

Jordan flu game shoes only got 104k at auction, turning down 98k for something no where near as significant is foolish.

 

[fahqu001]

The bigger idiot is the guy, if he did in fact, offer $98k; the kid did him a favor.  And the kid ... is a complete moron, too. He could have take $10k, got another pair, flew to Paris, got them signed and Kanye would have thrown in some dirty used undies for him to hang on his wall and worship.

 

[freakydestroyer]

Haven't there been Yeezy's signed before put up for sale. I'm sure there are less Red Octobers, but the other models and colors.

no 3m

 

[retro707]

I would of pushed for 98,980 to cover paypal fees at least. Come on

Don't you guys know by now 98K isn't life changing money

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

i would have a paid off car and no college loans, i can tell you that much.

and a few new pairs of shoes

 

[ziggybubbles]

I wonder how much that kid really thinks he's gonna get? There's a time when ye won't be as relevant as he is now

 

[freakydestroyer]

How old is the person who was offered that money? Is it the guido kid at the concert?

[geeplus]

I could have offered the kid 100k Cash! 

Offering and having the cash is two different stories. 

How many people with CLEAN money walk around with that kind of cash? The kid would need a security escort to get home, to gaurantee his own safety. Im still calling BS, someone was talking out there ***

[mantis toboggan]

is nike trolling with another yeezy colorway. or is this fake?

 

[josephskc]

How do you correlate a terrible photoshop with another Yeezy colorway dropping?

 

[DonRafa]

I think he meant another yeezy inspired colorway

 

[oddandtwisted]

How many pairs were made?
