It's America my friend! If you have the funds, the support, and a legal team, you can sue any person, group, or company. I'm with you on the "it won't fly" part, but gather enough people (say a few hundred or thousand) who share the same grievance, and you now have a class action lawsuit. But look, That's besides the point, I work in PR, not Law. All I'm doing is just contributing my two sense as to why they might be skipping out on the Columbia's. If my reason sounds too far-fetched, by all means I encourage you to throw it in the bin with all the other reasons from people who've contributed their input into Nike's actions toward the Columbia's.Nike has had blue tinted soles before a couple of years ago... OG Concords AND Columbias had a blue tint
they dont care about yellowing patent leather. they JUST released the all white anniversary XIs a couple of years ago. also, nike has a 2 year warranty on their products so any products that yellow outside of that is the consumer's responsibility.
You cant sue nike because of shoes yellowing. That wouldnt even fly on Judge Judy.
A couple of years ago, all you read in comment sections of blogs was yellow this and yellowing that. So they (nike) applied that blue tint in an attempt to calm all that talk down. But when it comes to the Columbia's, the yellowing process on the leather is inevitable (along with the soles). I don't think the good people at Orgeon wanna deal with all the negative feedback. Also, there's also the fear/possiblity of lawsuits. I wanna believe that the production number of the 11's exceed all the other models each year. If enough people (say 100-200,000) bring lawsuits claiming Nike sold them defected products (like the red ring of death), the PR and payout could be far worse than a few sneakerheads being dissapointed with the Columbia's not re-releasing. That's my humble opinion.
Never even mentioned profits! What I was saying was from a PR point. With everyone being so Quality Sensitive nowadays, their Public and Media Relations team might not want to deal with the headaches. But what do I know (very littlewhen it comes to how this Companies internal divisions function). I'm just in the dark like the rest of you.So what you're saying is Nike would lose money releasing the Columbia 11's..................................................................................................

Right!!! That could also be their strategy (keeping it off the market, to make the heart grow fonder).I here what your saying. The columbia's are a shoe where it's quality aesthetics in this day and age would be heavily judged and being that this shoe has now become the black sheep of the air Jordan XI a recent release with any type of subpar quality that especially doesn't keep their pair looking cleaner longer would have many unpleased and asking why did they bother....but Nike knows us and knows that if they release these they'll sell so why not make us wait a while. Absence makes the heart grow fonder
The spelling and use of "here" in this thread is so bad.
Anyways, they're going to milk the hell out of the ballistic mesh for sure. No wonder we're getting those lows this year.
Shouldn't you be grading some English homework?
should be a pricedrop with these. i literrally hope these tank so bad that jb will have no choice but to retro columbias.
I thought Jordan Brand would add a second 11 release to go along with these but as of right now these are the only Holiday Jordan 11 on schedule. Will update if that changes.
The midsole on those shouldn't be black smh, if we're getting another pair this year what about those year of the snake XI's supposedly dropping? And while we're on the subject of Snake XI's.........................................................
We are getting another 11, im 100% sure, dont worry!
