Just got back from one of the local malls, and got to see the WTKDs, and KD8 USAs in person. I know its said over and over again..but these things look so badass in person. Much better than even the nike press pics. Maybe it has to do with the clear material, and how the colors still pop...
You might check and see if Footaction is running any of the same promos, or will price match. The store at 225 W 34th St, New York, NY 10122 had the Lightings in stock, as of last week. Not sure what sizes..but the display shoe looked like it was about a 10 or so.
After hitting up several different stores, at several different locations, its obvious to me that each store is discounting the KDs at their own discretion. I went to a brand new FootLocker that just opened up 2 weeks ago...and there weren't ANY discounted KDs. Have fun with that. I then...
Its somewhat similar to most, if not all retail establishments. Each individual company can take a stock balance, and forecast sell through numbers. If they feel as if they will be stuck with a lot of inventory, they can request trailing credits and/or "VIR" back end rebates. The retail stores...
With all of the "Elite's" being offered at $99, I wonder how long it will take the "Rose Gold" elite's to be sold at the $99 price point. The blue's are being sold at $99, only 6 weeks after release. It would be pretty amazing, if they were $99 right at release....but the chances of that...
Absolutely amazing what that video did to change my mind. I've been cussing the 8s in my head since those first pics came out. Now I'm all In.
Whatever they call those "hype" guys that get the shoes before release, to post pics and vids....that guy just nailed it!
I don't know production #'s, but they were the only EXTs labeled Quickstrike by Nike. They were sold out on NDC within 6 hours of release and removed from the website all together. Once again...I don't know that anyone has access to production numbers...but when all the other EXT versions are...
Just curious to know what you are basing this on? I'm not agreeing, nor am I disagreeing. However, there are anywhere between 18-20 retail stores in my immediate metro area that typically sell KDs on any given business day. Of those 18-20 retail stores, there are typically 6-8 that get the...
I somewhat agree...but, as I understand it, the raffle process is to ensure fairness, and create accountability. Yet, If my wife were to lie...and say that she was me.... that's right back to not being honest. Shouldn't have to lie, cheat and steal, to cop some shoes. But yes...I do realize that...
So, I'm pretty pissed off right now.
I'm off work today, and was out working in the garage. My wife answered my phone, and it was FootLocker. They asked if I was there by name, and she said I couldn't come to the phone right now. So, the caller, said..."Oh, well he disqualified then." (And...
