I was hoping for some sort of off dullish off white solid color or weaved into white....so a slightly creamish look
I guess if you didn't grow with these, then being aware that not all GITD will be 'off-white'. Even when the photos showed how 'green' the GITD was gonna be in the most ideal situations.
 
 
PLEEEAAASSSEEE RESTOCK THOSE LTD UNCAGED
I don't think they are restocks. more so of all the returns they received when people didn't like the imperfect black  and orange-red  painted boosts

I called around to Adidas retailers in the LA area. Everyone says they aren't getting the GITDs. Any leads in the US? Especially LA?
 
 
I'd take 3M over GITD any day for visibility.  Everything GITD that I've ever had fades very quickly and wouldn't maintain enough viz to last during a run.  These are for stunting in the club.
You either gotta keep these under a light all day to wear them at night or wear them in the light all day so they glow in the night.

None of these are an issue for 3M.

Plus, I dunno what clubs would let me in with runners. Maybe a bar but I highly doubt folks are gonna look down at peoples shoes there.

Cool concept, poor execution.

My kids got a GITD frisbee this summer and we kept it in the sun all day and then moved it under a lamp before taking it out to play.  It was amazing for about 2 minutes, faded badly within 5 minutes, and the game was over in 10 minutes because people were getting hit in the face.  Nothing but a novelty/conversation piece IMO.
 
What did people expect GITD material color to be when it is not glowing?
Something that didn't appear to give off radiation even in broad daylight? :D

Like my city socks, when not charged up.

I'd seen the daytime UB pics ages ago (forgotten about them) and just figured they didn't want yet another mostly white CW as a base for the model. Gimmick or not, was hoping for something for something less on-the-nose with that vibrant green, was all.

I think even with a white knit with the gray still woulda looked off. the city socks with the GITD was executed nicely but I don't believe at the time that was one if it's main selling points.

Hope people like actually like them are able to get them because it would be a shame to pay resell on some slime green weave glow up shoes.
 
I'm trying to find the GITDs. Any leads on them yet?
Only thing I saw on twitter is some guy saying "Only stores in NY are carrying the GITD Ultraboost, the rep from the adidas Soho store said he's "unsure which adidas in NY."

I want to see normal photos of the Adizero Prime Boosts though I like the glow on those better than the UBs...
