It was a fake sellout. Went from a FSR to nothing. A few days later more popped up. Additionally pairs were sitting days after the release in stores. Just like the BWV Racers today. FSR today, pulled today and they're gone. Nike does it all the time. I surely don't hope you don't think that's why Nike made more pairs because of shootings? It's called 11s are one of their bread and butters ... to make money, not friends. Killing for shoes has been going on since I was a kid - like when the originals released. This is nothing new and that was before the resale market. And yes, those are OGs and had Nike Air on the back. Ain't retros dude is holding up lolI don't know if the 72-10's were a fake sell out but it was very successful and pleasant not to have had a release like the 750 boosts were everyone was happy to have copped. I don't think you realize that Nike came out with a substantial amount of pairs because of the back lash of all the shooting robberies, bullying, etc. by the media. having a small amount of sneakers causing envy "must have" that you'll do anything to get them if you cannot afford them. if I recall, there was news and a documentary about sneakers transactions that involve killings for the last 3 years. adidas has turned the corner but it will take Nike to be ignorant in order for them to lose their dominance in the sneaker market. They haven't really won anything because most people are reselling them then actually wearing them for the profit72-10 was a fake sellout. Regardless, you're right and Nike will remain king well into our lifetimes. Adidas has been blessing us with some fine stuff, but there some people in here who are smart enough to realize they have a ton of catching up to do. Mostly it's kids who are completely clueless and think 6 months of being hot equates to Adidas taking over the market . The average Joe couldn't give 2 5h1ts about Ultra Boost or even know who Kanye is for that matter. Nearly everyone around the world know who Michael Jordan and what Nike Air is.
While your thought is noble, it's not the reality.
