Lol...I don't think anyone is saying that...but with $250 being a previous high point, $220 is not surprising for whatever CW they are attaching it to. The 4 is still making no sense to me. And if I cop Vet Days from SS, it'll only run me about $140.

No, i'm not implying that you guys are saying that. I wish they had a steady pricing pattern and what releases to the public and not keep certain colorways available like to teamwow cartel or sites like hibasketball and peaksneakers, etc for a higher price. I guess they had to build it up to where they'll now sell more for a lesser price and not make the $220 look bad as oppose to $250 and up.

Ahhh got it. Well they've kept it interesting (i.e. Confusing) so far this year. But I agree with you.

I have said this many times, but we need a pair of 4's with some legit leather! You would think with all the pairs releasing there could be at least 1 pair...

^^^ Probably, but man I'm a sucker for leather...
The recent WOW marketing/prices seem familiar with Nike/Jordan Brand...High price and very limited amount of shoes made for each release. Do you guys think this is better or worse for the line?

worse. raising the barriers of entry when you're trying to expand a products reach usually doesnt work. u need word of mouth to build up your brand. there will be no word of mouth if the average joe doesnt even know ur product exists, and doesnt even have access to it if they DID want it.

Well, there are legitimately limited Jordan and Nike releases, but generally, J's have huge production numbers for the retros - it's why there are 2 VIII's and a VII you can still pick up online (that and I think VIII's are awful, and the VII CW is terrible).
I think even "limited" Nike and Jordan releases have to have greater production numbers than "limited" Wades. Wades just don't have the market for production numbers anywhere near Nikes. But, yeah, they seem to be trying out that business model.
I've expressed my issues with the brand several times at this point, and I'm done with Wades as things currently stand. Good luck to him/them.

I paid $500 for mine almost 2 years ago. Size 8 DS. You can should be able to pay less than that now even for a DS pair. I would guess the $375 range.

Those are the 808 2.0. They were originally supposed to be the WOW 3 Encore (or 3.5), but they ended up scrapping the plans to release the playoff version. They haven't released at retail yet. Those are a sample.

A black/white colorway, possibly with some suede or mixture of materials, would be nice.

I might have missed it but I'm gonna assume they are $190 as well? Or as personaltime alluded to, is this possibly the first $220 pair?

Thanks! Do you know what CW's are going to be that $220 (I'm assuming Christmas and ASG off the bat as previous years) or just the number was made known?

Back for the tns 4s. Will probably be my only 4. Are they 3m or no. I wish they never would have went past the 2. The 1 imo was a perfect shoe at the perfect price
