some of yall are too into these triple blacks. They're alright.
I think the all blk and all whites are some of the worst cws. 

I think its more for the younger gen pop. just like those NM hybrids

i agree with you on the all whites, but nothing else lol. if the silhouette is on point, i dont think any shoe can look bad in all black. literally cant think of a single pair of sneakers that im inot that wouldnt look good in black. huaraches dont even have that much of a following in the US let alone with younger kids, theyre still on jordan retros. As for the nm's i dig them more for the comfort and how light they are then for looks, but im still a fan oh how they look on foot
  
 
im just not a fan of all white sneakers in gneral
J frenchbread where do u believe i can find a size 12 of the hyperpunch that released in europe that I saw you had in your collection. I'm kind of old man now comes to shoes haven't done eBay in the longest but it's lookin like I'm going to have to.

they released stateside too. and ebay is where i got mine and pronably the only place you will find them at this point
 
 
any websites of where i can get the NM at retail?  looking for the all white or all grey in a size 8
have you even searched for them? check the thread for links. any site that has them in stock is selling them at retail plus shipping. these havent dropped in the US and can only be copped for retail on euro/uk sites. £95=€135=$150. so unless you find them on sale $150 is the least you will be paying IF you get free shipping. otherwise expect 165-180 with shipping included. thats retail.

Without boring you with a history on Hua but the point of the new cws is to connect the young gen to the shoe. 

And the NM are like the free Hua a few yrs ago something that didnt do well,  which is why you wont see them (NM) in the US market.

im familair with history of the shoe, but what makes you say that new colors are for the "younger generation"? as opposed to when any other previously established shoe releases a new color way? As opposed to revitalizing the interest of Huaraches in general? especially state side where demand for jordan retros dominates everything. if anything the triple blacks are way more like an adults shoe compared to a shoe labeled "scream greens" with bright vivid green. Id say that is the case if youre talking about foamposites but, compared to the huaraches that originally released theyve been the same level of vibrant or even duller. so it seems to me that theyre trying to attract the same crowd as they were before, if not a little older.

the performance of the huarache frees from a couple years ago has ZERO indication on how well the NM's would do stateside. The frees released when there was almost zero buzz about huaraches outside of europe. and when people werent wearing trainers as casual kicks. thats not the case anymore especially since roshes became prevelant. Huaraches are doing well enough that nike is giving use the ability to ID them. Huarache NMs are doing extremely well in europe right now and restocks always go quickly and sell faster than most jordan retros do. Whether the NMs come to the US has zero to do with the frees performance and everything to do with how well the regular huaraches do here. Notice how Interest in the jordan 1 high has got them releasing other versions of the ones in every shape size and color? 

if all you wanted to say was you were into huaraches before they became popular again that all you had to say

Could someone with the new triple blacks check to see whether they were made in China or Indonesia? Thanks in advance
 
Thanks for the instant response. Been wearing my turqs all day and I swear these made in China pairs are more comfortable. Midsole seems a little softer

My point of the Free was an example of a failed design, those NM would sit on shelves in the US. Allocations for them in EU is only 20-25K units per given cw. So what may seem like its "limited or selling" is just you have a small portion of people outside of the target market buying them. 

Didnt have interest in commenting on the rest just isnt worth my time but regarding what I'm "into" has nothing to do what I posted. Which was the referenced cws are weak its as simple as that.

You still haven't given me a reason as to why the NMs will sit in the US. They're selling out In europe because supply was out matches by demand. There's no illusion in that. So with the popularity rising for huaraches in America why exactly wouldn't they sell? Aside from you not liking them?

Huas have sat in the US for the past 2 yrs. none of them soldout or were hard to get for months after they released. 

When I inquired about the 7 cws (NM) that were slated to release here in the states, I was told most people are confused about the model as they are with Hua in general. 

So again my personal preference has no bearing 
 
huaraches are everywhere dog.

they're like in that stan smith category of casual sneakers that even people not really into sneakers wear.

Yea... I kind of hate it because it was always that shoe you wanted Nike to bring back in a couple colors, and they haven't taken their foot off the pedal.... :{
 
i love the fact that everyone is gravitating towards these sneakers but just leave it how it is nike.
