Am I crazy for hoping that even though adidas stores are claiming to get no pairs and it's looking like raffles at sneaker boutiques is the way to go, that we'll randomly find out that Foot Locker, Champs and the like will get these in decent numbers next week?

I'm just going to say I don't believe the adidas cashiers and them saying they aren't getting them. if large markets like Chicago and the DMV are saying the same thing, then something is off.
Just gotta wait for credible info

Just called my Adidas Orginal store and talked to the manager. He said only 7 Adidas store worldwide will receive them. NYC , LA , don't remember the other cities. It will only be available by Adidas consortium. DAMN it's going to be a limited release.....

St Alfred's are getting them. Raffle starts next week, not this week as another member mentioned yesterday.
Also, RSVP Gallery is a lock to get them, but most pairs will end up out the backdoor to VIPs.
As I said yesterday, it is confirmed that it will only be Consortium accounts. Good luck.

wasnt it widely known to be an east coast to west coast release with only major cities getting them?

Yes.. I called and asked if they will get the yeezy's and he said not sure.. I was like I want to talk to the manager and that's what he said.. I couldn't believe it.. He said it will be very limited and only a couple of AC will get them

I meant to write next Wednesday on that post. RSVP didn't have solid info, but I'm sure they'll get them. I called LDRS for s**** and giggles, but they have no idea (and likely won't get them). Oh well, I already don't want to pay $350 and I refuse to pay resell. On to the next one if things don't work out on the 28th.

How can the NY-only release have 9000 pairs and the follow-up global release have less.

This pretty much looks like the same release as the King Push EQTs sans the initial reservation pairs.

could make sense since they released during a huge event (ASW)

Except only in 1 region. Not even 1 state, dammit. That can't be right.

Its a huge slap in the face to fans who wanted to actually buy and wear. Adidas just gave the resellers more money, if all this is true and thats what sucks the most

isnt it becoming increasingly evident that there are 9,000 pairs made?
why would he apologize if there were thousands coming in 2 weeks, he would have just said that.
there is no way that 9,000 released this weekend among 5 stores. 9,000 is ALOT of pairs over 5 boroughs.
to me hes apologizing for a limited first shoe and he also apologized for the price.
there will be other yeezy models at a lower price point is what hes saying.
and i know he said "we sold 9,000" pairs, but in the context he said it, it was in a statement regarding his influence. you really think he knows how many were sold? and you really think he would be like "we sold 1,800" to back up his influence comment.

at the end of the day, adidas only cares about the bottom line for the shareholders. reseller or fan you are both paying the same price for the shoes... it does suck but thats just the reality of the situation...
