£170, hiked the price up no doubt because of brexit

Well, thats me out then. No way I'm gonna pay that much, wonder how successful they're expecting these to be when they're that expensive.

If these aren't as comfy as my ultraboost I see no reason why I'll be keeping them. When they arrive tomorrow I'll post my feelings about them but ultimately £170 is a disgusting amount of money and I see about a 30% chance I'll be keeping them.

It's like how the price of Flyknit max went up from like 180 to 205 overnight for no good reason. Someone mentioned brexit then but idk, other models have stayed around the same price. Hell GR 95s are only marginally more expensive now than they were when they dropped back in the day.

This limited quantity + price boost ish Nike keeps pulling is gonna have me saying screw Nike soon. This month has and seems like it will continue to be an Air Max nightmare. [emoji]128530[/emoji]

Well, it's peak cos they said $190 retail which is around £154, so I expected £160, but £170 is definite capitalisation on this uncertain brexit atmosphere.

Yeah man, UK Nike. If you download the Nike Run Club app and go for a 3.1 mile run on this Sunday coming up (19th) then you are eligible for early release the following Wednesday (22nd)
The reason I was able to get it early was because I completed a run on the 12th and they were available for me at midnight today.

I wonder why the glamour shots of the Platinum exaggerates to make it look blue-ish.
The real life lighting shot I saw from Marty Smith only has a slight blue tint to the bubble-sole.
Looks better to me there. A more solid grey you see that contrasts clearly with the white swoosh.

New article with some prototype pics
can't link it
The Road to VaporMax: How Nike Invented Its Latest Innovation
And the Pure Platinum look better in real world shots. Seeing them on MartySmithESPN shows a solid if unspectacular color scheme.

I'm not a fan of these, but logging runs with the NRC app to make you eligible for new releases sounds awesome!
If they placed that upper on an LR sole though...

I am already overboard with 3 or 4 Volt combo shirt and shorts I wear. The shoes I got are like 25% volt and then grey, also got for cheap ($50). I'd be kicking myself when an oops leaves a mark on those VaporMax.
But how the Volt shows on the bubbles without taking away the clarity is hot cha cha.

So these are due for a GR in addition to the CDG that released?
