I'm guessing they'll be difficult to get for retail.

bro, even THESE were difficult to get for retail.
I actually liked the Patinas in certain photos.
...but in others they're hideous.

Some more so than others.
These will probably be $350 or more on the resell.
...and none found in store.

If you mean for retail, which I’m 98% sure you are, I agree….shxt is damn near impossible.
However, I could argue that shoes are easier to get nowadays than past times.
Shoes are only a click or two away, funds aside.
Past times, before heavy internet and resell platforms, once something sold out in store, you were SOL.

1s are the only model that I never see in store...ever.
Not sure I've ever seen a pair of 4s either.
3s, 5s and 6s have been popping up on shelves lately.
...at least in my town.

A tongue tag makes you 50/50 on them.

I feel like the early/mid 2000s were the best of both worlds for this, if you were OK with buying shoes on eBay. At that point, this was still a niche culture that was nowhere near as mainstream as it is now, so with a little effort you could get stuff at retail at least as often as you couldn't. And if you couldn't, the resale market on eBay was reasonable compared to a lot of what happens today. I remember the 2003 WC III release ... I got a few pairs, one at retail and the other two pairs I bought on eBay with a markup of like $40 or $50 a pop. You never saw stuff flying at double and triple (or more) than MSRP like we do today. No one would have even thought to list new-release retro sneakers at prices like that, and if they had, no one was hitting Buy Now at those kinds of prices.

Why do I always feel like it is a struggle. Even back then it seemed hard.

Not like it is now, you know it was WAY different LOLWhy do I always feel like it is a struggle. Even back then it seemed hard.
Funny enough, just stumbled across this article about bots and resale. A good read:
Greedy Bots Cornered the Sneaker Market. What Now?
Bots are cornering certain markets: sneakers, tickets, hand sanitizer. The solution might be Garth Brooks–inspired.

Damn they look terrible all creased up like that.
I would only take them out the box, put them on feet, take pics, put them back in the box and resume my day with my sketchers.

I was watching a video yesterday where the guy was talking about how he regretted not copping these early on when they were “easy to get.”
I don’t remember that being the case.
Were these relatively easy to get on release day and shortly thereafter?
