One thing I don't think get's talked about enough up here is the effect fashion trends have on the demand for some of these shoes. By in large I would say most users on NT are older, have developed our own sense of style and taste by this point that it doesn't change nearly as much as the younger generation interested in sneakers and fashion.
Just for reference find the biggest IG influencers, sneaker pages, YTer's etc. If you scroll their feed now all you will see are Nikes. That will include Jordan retros mainly (1's,3's,4's,5's,6's), Dunks, and classic Nike Sportswear models such as AF1's and Blazers. Couple years ago it was all Yeezy and Adidas that has basically been eliminated. Their clothing choices to match these shoes have changed as well the skinny and tapered pants have been replaced with straight leg and more baggy pants to fit the chunkier shoes. Their collection of Box logos and Supreme tee's have been replaced with Vintage t-shirts. I used to be able to grab pre owned Carhartt jackets on ebay for like $25-$30 all day long. Now those same WORN jackets will run me $200 easy.
If the general sneaker population are a school of bait fish, the resellers are just sharks following the money. Nike definitely has a hand in this by putting certain celebrities' in specific shoes because America's fashion trends change frequently and are celebrity driven. It's just so many different factors added to the pot that creates this situation we have right here.

Union Square said they sold out..wouldve been nice to know about this when they had stock smh. Impossible knowing which store to call and when you do no one picks up. How are people that aren't resellers supposed to catch any of this?

Yep, picked up a pair of Rose Carmines from FTL! In my mind, I’m going to believe this was an exclusive colorway release for Valentines! 
P.S. 42nd St is cooked! Got lucky with the last 11.5.

For any Brooklyn/NYC NT’ers the Flight 23 store in downtown Brooklyn had physical pairs today but the manager had shut down the release due to the line not listening. They have pairs tho and I’m going on a trip this weekend so idk if they going to be selling them beginning tomorrow or the weekend

Mad tempted to get out here in these streets with hopes of stumbling upon a pair, but then my better judgement kicks in and tells me not to risk it all on these icy roads for a damn pair of shoes.

Though I had the CDP and 2014, this has always been on my grail list. Praying we get 2000 Olympic 6's soon (properly painted)!

So if the midsole is supposed to gradually turn pink because of the paint, yet through wear and oxidation the midsole turns yellow. Does that mean the midsole with ultimately turn orange?
