nah i meant a line of shoes. kanye proved he couldn't sell 70 dollar tshirts already. with the black version of the yeezy3 confirmed, i am thinking the current ones are "rare" and future colorways will be GR - still at $350 retail.
i dont think adidas wants to scare the **** out of customers with a +$400 price tag...

Nope. It just doesn't make sense to spend the money to just upgrade their servers for one release. They'd rather save money and wait out the release.
99% of the people who bought or attempted to buy the yeezys today haven't bought an adidas product in YEARS (I'm willing to bet since the T-mac) line.
Why would they spend the money on customers who are more than likely NOT going to buy any other of their products

What's confusing is how the market isn't flooded with email confirmation. Am i missing something. Size 9 has one email on eBay

Clearly an exaggeration.
My Six Sigma training would say other wise when it comes to statistics.

Can our IT brethren comment on a web servers capacity to handle traffic then. Cause I'm no IT guy, just someone who wants some answers. Like most of us.

do you really think adidas would spend a ton of money to make a really smooth check out process for one shoe? in the grand scheme of things the yeezys are just supposed to be cool enough so that you look at other adidas shoes/products

So if they're not gonna spend money to upgrade the servers, how much revenue was lost in sales between 12-4'ish while the site was down??

I work IT for the state.. one of my old coworkers now works for TaylorMade. He told me earlier today that Adidas IT infrastructure is garbage, and that the servers were probably overrun by asian resellers via proxy. True story.

So what happened to everyone hating and passing on these?
What happened to these going to be easily attainable? What happened to hold off everyone will get a pair? Like I said before, these are and will be limited. Stop dreaming that these will restock every few months or that they will be easy to get. Regardless what Kanye says, Adidas will do what they want to. They will not over saturate the market because if they do, no one will want the low's and possibly other products. Look what Nike has built on a weekly basis just off hype and limited releases. Adidas will make all Yeezy products limited or somewhat in low numbers but will just have multiple releases so that more people have a chance of getting a pair.
Just my 2 cents

Not that much imo. because the people who actually do buy adidas will either 1) come back tomorrow 2) or cop from another site.
