ADIDAS x YEEZY COLLAB OFFICIAL THREAD *2016 thread link 1st page*

[dragonfly jones]

they soldout days before release anyway.. if you weren't back dooring by Tuesday, you didn't stand a chance

 

[tmoretz1]

They only released at retailers that carried Yeezy Season 1. Y-3 did, ADC did not. 
That was pretty clear from the beginning.

Yeah I gathered that, but that's like Nike not dropping a pair of overhyped under materialized Jordan's, and not selling them on ndc. Makes no sense.

 

[tmoretz1]

yes this is mine blowing but the fakes are pretty good accept the boost on some , and the real versions cost $1,000 plus

Lucky me I can afford a grand on kicks. I bought a house last month so I'm broke as a joke, except for a pair coming up. If I can cop it anyway that is

I am not sure at what phase we are right now but here is the:

Yeezy Drop Cycle in 20 Phases:
Phase 1 – Rumored dates for the next model/colorway start popping up.
Phase 2 – NT Yeezy thread gets flooded with LCs of the last Yeezy drop. Please use the LC thread! If it is too good to be true then I suggest you move on.
Phase 3 – One of the Kardashians posts another filtered image of the shoe ‘confirming’ the release is coming soon.
Phase 4 – More images of the next drop start showing up across the internet. Some see a white dress, others see a gold dress. NT members continue to complain about the filters and lighting used in the pics.
Phase 5 – 2 weeks ahead of the rumored drop, people start asking their local shops or ADC customer service for information. Nobody knows anything, which results in the assumption that this drop is going to be extremely hard to get compared to the previous ones.
Phase 6 – People with ‘inside information’ start to surface. Some ‘know’ the production numbers, others ‘know’ the exact date and time of the release, and some claim to know the woman who sold the scissors to the person that cuts North West’s hair who is receiving the Friends & Family link 2 days in advance. Nobody really knows anything…
Phase 7 – Official confirmation of the release finally comes. As a result, the NT ‘guest’ count quadruples in minutes. Yeezy thread is LIT.
Phase 8 – NT members living in NYC start to complain about backdoored pears. Canada NT members feel left out. Small town members say “online or bust”. European members feel shorted. NT members living in Bolivia question their life decisions.
Phase 9 - Lurkers start to surface. “Who is releasing these?”, “Will these be online?” “Can you spoon feed me?”, “Long time lurker, PM me that secret info.” Let me google that for you ‘fam’. Those looking to cook, post their secrets/tips to the public, eliminating any hope of scoring for themselves.
Phase 10 – The computer science heads start to collaborate. “Code this, code that”, “C++ and don’t forget to carry the one”, “After we eat, all of NT will eat!”. Members with no coding knowledge sit back in jealously and begin to chalk up the L.
Phase 11 – Everyones social media feeds are filled with raffle entries. Nobody seems to ever win except the botiques mailing list.
Phase 12 – In store raffle winners are announced. Winners boast, losers claim it was rigged.
Phase 13 – Drop day: Some haven’t slept in days, others have hypothermia. “Do I have enough dough in my account to cover taxes and shipping?” “$300K in account, that enough brah?”. Websites are crashing left and right. Some get through with an easy +1, others complain that the bots got them all. “I hit submit but never got an email notification and the funds are still in my account, did I eat?!”, “When’s the afternoon restock?”, “+3, easier than the last drop”, “I used the same address and card for my two orders, will they get cancelled?”. SALT. NT Yeezy thread can’t even be kept up with.
Phase 14 – Shipping confirmation emails start going out. Those that haven’t received one start to panic. Some feel the necessity to post their package weight. Nobody wants to know how much your package weighs. Some idiot boasts on social media with his order/tracking number. Another idiot reroutes that order or gets it cancelled.
Phase 15 – Cancellation emails start going out. SALT. Some people haven’t heard anything since they placed their order while others have their pears in hand. These people contact customer service and get a cancellation email shortly after
Phase 16 – The lucky ones start posting pictures their stacks of Yeezy boxes as they get delivered. The members that struck out will say “You got eleventeen pairs?!!? I couldn’t even get one!”. SALT. Acceptance of failure starts to set in. Comments such as "I never wanted them anyways" "I already have "enter yeezy shoe street name or hyped Jordan here" begin to surface left and right.
Phase 17 – The lurkers give up and disappear. Guest count drops significantly.
Phase 18 – New members who hit on the drop don’t pay attention to the rules and start listing their pairs for sale/trade in the Yeezy thread. Banned. NT Yeezy thread slows down.
Phase 19 – @Grizzyanimal keeps the NT yeezy thread alive with trolling posts or hilarious gifs.
Phase 20 – See Phase 1.

Those phases tho. My favorite is #13

keep in mind that list may be for an adidas confirmed app pickup store like the grey 750s

Looks like Champs will be carrying both 750's and 350's. Hoping that mean that there will be a ton of pairs to go around.

almost positive that the footsites will only release online. In-store purchases would be distributed through the confirmed app. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

99% sure your correct

You are most likely right

For TD and PB they had in store raffles

 

[icemanjj27]

For TD and PB they had in store raffles

for extremly limited locations, i beleive lenox square, a cali store, and a fl store

more like 50% correct, Confirmed App only has 3 locations. Those 3 locations will have majority  of in-store footsites (FTL family) use the Confirmed app. I think that there were a few footsite stores in NYC that hosted a raffle. And for all the other cities without the Confirmed app, the footsites will most likely get the yeezys too but again, release could vary from in-store raffle to fcfs. 

 

[cniles992001]

^^^Correct ^^^ Other stores did raffles that I know of Only store in Texas that got TD and PB was raffles both times

 

[sin91]

^^^Correct ^^^ Other stores did raffles that I know of Only store in Texas that got TD and PB was raffles both times

but did you win? or know of people that did win?

 

[cniles992001]

Both

 

[sin91]

that's great to hear. I'd be worried that a manager would back door most the pairs or only call up all his buddies. where as the confirmed app only allows adidas reps to handle the stock. looking forward to the adidas app to drop. 

 

[Leonard Washington]

only certain foot stores did instore raffles, all had thousand+ entries and very few pairs

 

[he-man387]

Only draw back about the Confirmed app is if you are not with in range, you are not eligible to participate. In NY, if you are not in Manhattan, you are considered out of range. I live in BK and commute to Jersey city for work. I have been out of range for all of the confirmed releases. My boy who works in Queens is also out of range.  

 

[cniles992001]

Close to 2k entered raffle and they had like 24 pair of the PB so it sucks but gives you a shot just as it does for those that are team Manuel

 

[18thcomplex]

These might be those Oxford Tan 350's not sure... They look a little fake to me but maybe that's the color that will come out...
