Nobody wants these.. Arguably the worst cw of VIIs released in 2015. These will hit discount/line the outlets just like the MTM VIIs did.
 
To each his own. I like them and I ordered two pair. I wish every release I liked was like this.

Supposed to be "Happy" that you can have them all to yourself, and probably on discount, too! I wish everything I liked sat lol
No question, I am happy I was able to easily cop. But I was thinking longer-term. If these types of colorways sit, we probably will get fewer of them from JB in the future.
 
For the twelve people who actually wanted these, congratulations on the easy cop.

Somewhat seriously, there have been a number of releases that have not sold out on release day or shortly thereafter. They haven't just been VIIs, but the low XIs, and IXs. I think JB has reached the point where they're saturating the market.

There was a recent APICs conference in Vegas. Nike execs on supply chain had a standing room only session. Two interesting items they discussed. 1) There is some type of correlation between high amounts of tweets and Nike stock prices dropping and 2) they talked about the early day 'mistake' where the accountants and marketing had a dispute about the number of Jordan's to produce/release. Finance wanted to produce as much as would be consumed, marketing wanted to have demand outpace supply by 2 to 1. Marketing won out, and maybe now the accountants are pushing for more volume.

i rather wear drawls with dookie stains on my feet than wear these

A drawl is a way some in the south speak, actual definition; speak in a slow, lazy way with prolonged vowel sounds.

I think you meant 'drawers' which is both a storage unit and underpants....

You're good on dookie though :D
 
Damn wasted 12 hours of trying to get Yeezy manually and now even ADC is "sold out"! Might as well cop the sweaters....

They could just you know, put out the ones people actually want in a large quantity instead of these meh ones with a $200 price tag

I wonder if it is considered a success only if they sell out on release day or a few days after. For some shoes, the demand may be such that it will sell out - slowly. The AJ14 low Laneys is a good example. These sat on the shelves, but were being slowly bought by those who had second thoughts. There are still some left, but some sizes are sold out now.
 
It's weird that Nike/JB is so stingy with the prices now.. It takes months for the price to even slightly drop. These shoes don't look that bad.. No one would even know they were "80s themed" if they hadn't made such a big deal of it. The colors are vibrant but neutral and the design matches the peaks at the bottom and on the sole. It's just getting harder for me to drop over $200 on every Jordan retro. If they were back at that $150-170 range I would prob grab more of the releases. I waited 2 months for the Anthracite 9s hoping to get a lil break on the cost, but they're still full retail and excluded from discounts online. I ended up grabbing em in store with a rewards coupon bc I really wanted those. But I've decided to be more selective because of the rising costs. Unfortunately, it's not slowing down either.. $220? Wow.. :smh:

Just because a release sat in your area doesnt mean it sat all over America.... Different areas have different taste

I doubt tastes vary greatly from one geography to another. These retailers and Nike knows what sells in what volumes, this is a science and based on a lot of big data gathered over years.

To clarify what I was referring to, I was speaking to online retailers and not being geographically specific. If you look at all the major retailers they still have full size or almost full size runs.

Although, NTers are from all across the US and there is also an outlets section wherepeople post from different locations across the US.

I've thought about this too...for example the Anthracite 9's seemed to be very popular for the people here on NT, yet they completely sucked here in Australia.
