NIKE METCON THREAD - 7s out now

Well, just looked at the status of my order with FNL for the Game Royals and it has been CANCELLED. Reasoning for cancellation is because of insufficient inventory they said. Get it together FNL

Curious about these kicks and if the hype is real...couldn't pass up a pair or 2 at this price over the weekend...
Where was this? Were you serious that you actually paid $60 for the shoes or was it an error on the shelf where it is $120 at the cashier at checkout? Lol
 
ha...didn't know that. Well, good for you man! Makes me wonder how much Nike makes on us for selling it at retail price especially the Camos.
 
 In other news, my hook-up is finally coming through on our trade and I'll have a pair of the daring red coming to me soon, woooooo!

What the cost is for the manufacturer I dont know, but when I worked for a footwear retailer a few years ago in the inventory dept. the cost compared to retail was around half. That may have changed over the last 6 or 7 years, but probably not much. So this price in a Nike employee story makes sense.

My gf works closely with manufacturers for Underarmour and some other smaller athletic apparel companies, she says she would be surprised if these cost more than $10 to make.  Lol, that puts things into perspective.  
 
It's a little more complicated than that, if Nike charged what it cost to make a shoe, they wouldn't be the juggernaut that they are.

R&D, marketing, etc, etc.

$60 is the price Nike sells them to distributors. I miss swoosh :frown:
 
I will never understand how shoes on Nike.com are sold out in 30 seconds. I was on at 6:59, hit refresh and the Daring Reds are gone.
 
10:02 and already out of stock.  This is ridiculous.  Never had a chance even at 10am against the bots.
 
Stay on the page for another 20 mins or so. Nike will usually add more stock in after the bots do their stuff. I got my Camo by waiting a lil longer...Good luck!
 
People are probably testing their bots on Nike.com

If you want the daring reds wait a bit for it to drop out of their carts. More sizes will be available soon just like the camo release on Nike.com
 
This happened with the Camo NDC release too, keep an eye on the site.  Last time more became available about an hour after the release, probably from people releasing them from their carts or something.
