All the resellers making up for the lackluster year with this one drop …Just when it seemed like the aftermarket on hyped drops was starting the level out, and even drop in some cases, here comes Nike with 500k pairs of Chi’s; that people STILL can’t buy…I mean it seemed like the AMM 4’s, which probably had a production run that was a fraction of what these had, were easier to get…

It’s absurd that this is still the sneaker world in 2022…I was lucky, and luck is basically what boils down to for normal people trying to buy shoes, that SNKRS gave me that EA…Doesn’t change the fact that this hurts for actual sneakerheads…

Kinda regret not buying these when the resell wasn't that high. Do you think the prices will go down like that again? Or i missed my chance?

I could be wrong, but I don’t think prices will go down that low again.

2M pair of cool greys, 500K of these and I was still optimistic with all the bot security that was supposed to be implemented. Struck out on these, many pairs off whites n hyper royals. I miss the days when you can legit enter your credit card info and it goes through on the 1st try.

I waited on snipes since 9 am-2pm est just to see oos. They let more bot users than manual users through. Then theres the hassle of adding to cart, and eventually the site crashing. Spamming is an effective way to submit or process an order. Then again isnt spamming part of what bots do?

After the snkrs app fiasco this morning!! Had to pull out my EA pair an take them for a spin!! Still mad I couldn't double up!! #SADDERDAY!!

I think the same. SNKRs errors and how much it affected people casts a different light on this release. Maybe they go down a bit when pairs come in, but the demand behind this shoe is palpable.

Nike wants to keep this colorway relevant so I believe any restock won’t be easy to get.

NastyS almost wish I pulled trigger on goat yesterday for another pair

Smh

Can almost promise they would’ve not shipped them because the price went up.

 

[D_eezus]

First time i’ve worn a shoe on the release date. I normally wait a few weeks.

 

[sphynx]

what's the time stamp?

2:58:40 - thru like the next 3 mins

had me cryin all day. Looks down at his phone like he just got death news. Then, starts punching on his couch with tears in his eyes, then bruh threw the backpack one of his sponsors gave him to give to the kid viewers LMFAOOOO

I don’t know why I thought the UNDFTD raffle results would be today

These bots that resellers use are a concern but Nike should be focused on blocking these proxy companies that give bots access to their servers in under 5–10ms. Nike won’t block proxy servers that simulate real residential I.p addresses and these proxy companies know it. And that is only because they run a real risk blocking actual customers in the process. We are up against bots and proxies that proactively sell this tech to resellers for an advantage.

I would think they need to go the Shopify/ a ma manier.com route an mask the real website domain until launch day. maybe even send out a email like finish line does for the end user to confirm they are a legit real validated I.p consumer. This could be done on launch day of release to slow down a reseller from securing many multiple pairs. I would imagine it would take a long time to confirm hundreds of email addresses in one sitting.

The only way to slow down an automated process is to have a well thought out Manual verification process in place.

i agree with you to an extent, let's be real here the reason alot of us are struggling to get our favorite shoes is because nike changed their distribution setup, if you've been in this "game" long enough you know how easy it was to secure multiple pairs from mom and pop shops, nike taking them out of the picture created a bottle neck where we are all trying to buy from the same stores (ie backdoor boutiques) of course the snkrs app can't handle the traffic, it's because alot of the consumers have nowhere else to buy from except from the app.

My second pair secured via DTLR. Best of luck for those still searching; I’m sure they’ll be at least one restock before the holidays

 

[danewera]

yea I'm deleting SNKRS off my phone once the New Year comes, no point of having it because I cant get EA , Reserve Pass, & ****... cant even get massive GRs on there like FR 3's & the Cool Greys XIsr. Tired of the stress

I already know I'm not getting Cardinals or 2s on there, so I'm not going to bother

 

[Confessions of Fire]

All these in-hand pics got me feeling some type of way

 

[D_eezus]

I guess undtd is our only hope.

They didn’t drop already?

 

[shooters touch]

Secured a pair for my new niece as well

 

[unkn0wn]

I made my account to follow the 2015 chi thread. Spent 6 hours trying to cop and ended up paying resale.

For today’s release, I woke up at 7 to enter snkrs drawing and went back to sleep at 7:05. Woke up with a W.

I tend to have better luck the less effort I put in. I know people hate snkrs but it’s made copping so much less time consuming for me. **** trying to checkout from one of those online sneaker shops.

The SNKRS pass got em screen hits different

This dude look like he committed suicide after 2:59
This thing aint for him.

 

[WASHED KING]

QC wise my Hibbetts pair looks way better than my EA pair.

Less cracking everywhere on the shoe.
