Fellas.....
I think the argument holds at not just returning the shoes, but making Nike aware of the madness they are causing by the ridiculous hype and pricing on these shoes.....like the other dude said, somebody else will just buy them... So in order to really make a change, we have to stop adhering to their crazy price increases every year and stop hyping these shoes and releases. It has gotten to the point where u cant even go buy a pair without getting trampled or mugged. With that said..we have to be smarter and know our surroundings with these releases...It's a shame what happened to the young homie, but we have to be smarter with how we carry ourselves and how much we carry on us. Somebody got the scoop and made him a target... with that said...I wanna return my pair..... but what good would that actually do?? Somebody else will just buy them... Thats why Nike doesnt give a sh*t... They dont Give a sh*t about us, our safety, or our lives...That is up to us.. They just want the money... Sad thing is I dont foresee an end to this madness.
What exactly do you want NIKE to do? Its not their fault that people that want their products are beyond acting like civilized human beings. As far as hype goes, they don't do anything to hype up a product. They give you a release date, that's it. It's all of these sneaker blogs that are hypebeast central. Kicksonfire and Modern Notoriety are the absolute WORST. They will hype up ANYTHING. Also, the people that pay reseller prices are largely responsible as well. How could you possibly justify spending $300 on some ugly shoes that have no significance whatsoever. 50% of the fools that paid retail or bought from a reseller, will only wear their pairs once so they could show all of their followers on instagram that they have the newest release. It's pathetic.
