This right here sums up the dire need for something to change about how these releases are handled. Especially the last part there.....Originally Posted by thatguy
If you literally gotta camp two weeks for these shoes to get em and there's the same types of fights and violence to get these I'd almost be happy if I can't get em online, especially if they do some surprise release online with em. Don't get me wrong, I love this shoe, but the way these releases have been handled lately just really make me almost feel bad about what the shoe represents.
I totally understand the exclusivity of these releases and the need to do more limited releases to keep the brand growing and all that, but I still don't think that for releases like this years ASG or heck even these I should have to camp for a week or pay 4x retail online to get them. Like come on son what's that? Honestly it makes me wanna go buy some drose shoes or somethin and I hate adidas but what's the point of havin limited shoes if the people that really want them have no chance at getting them for anywhere near retail? I consider myself a sneakerhead and paying these increased retail prices I gotta save up for releases like this, and now you're tellin me I still can't get them? Smh makes me wanna be done with Nike (even though it's the only brand I buy) and switch to some other brand where I don't have to literally fight and camp out to get what I want.
At the end of the day, you can still have TZ, QS, Limited, Limited GR, and GR if you just increase quantities across the board. Don't wanna get into some economics discussion here but essentially (as we all know) the population that buys these shoes is increasing. That means that while prices are gonna go up, so should quantity - THIS CAN HAPPEN WITH THEM STILL BEING "LIMITED" AMONG PEOPLE!
Imagine if these shoes were actually something we all needed...

Glad somebody else feels the way I do. Seriously like adidas has more limited stuff come out and there aren't these release problems. Obviously their following is a ton smaller but they got it figured out where the people that REALLY want the limited stuff can still get it within reason.Originally Posted by Sneak King
