Retros have been smelling like glue for years. At least 4-5 years now. First cop in a while?

My guess is that they noticed the system glitch of doubling orders and cancelled them out of panic. My order on Sat. morning was doubled erroneously and they cancelled both orders. At some point they probably realized that cancelling both orders was an overreaction and they started just cancelling the duplicate order. Regardless, the double ordering glitch probably caused a number of "phantom" reservations in their inventory management system. When this was corrected it probably freed up inventory for the phone orders later in the day.

I saw my duplicate order on EB and chatted with a rep to cancel one. I wasn't about to go through the mess of having both possibly canceled, plus then it freed up the other pair for someone else when I wasn't doubling up anyway. Pair is being delivered tomorrow.

So Nike cancels my Saturday order on Monday
I panic but get a phone order through Eastbay
Get a call from Nike some hours later saying the cancellation was an error and asking if I still want the order
I deny it since I already got my pair
Now 2 days later my EB order is still waiting to be fulfilled...
Ugh.

My wife was sickened by the smell. I enjoy the smell in a very weird way.

I'll try to get them for like $260-280 right now... I think prices are only going to go up for these.

The official colorway of the 2012 release was "Tech Grey" so technically they weren't "Cements".

Good luck.
I think the shotgun theory works for releases. Try for multiple pairs. If they cancel, you should have a back up pair. Worst case scenario, you return a pair or two. The odds of getting zero pairs slim. (Although that happened to me. Legend 11 release, from 3 confirmed orders to all being cancelled.
)

It will say that until UPS scans the package into their system, even if you already have a tracking number.

yeah my wife hates it too. I think we relate it to a new pair of kicks so that's why it doesn't bother us lol

True, and the 2012 didn't have Nike Air branding. So technically it' was a different sneaker.

Technically these 2016's say "Tech Grey" on the box as well, although they're a completely different shade than the 2012's.

Unfortunately unless you get the shipping confirmation, nothing is guaranteed. Hopefully you get your pairs.
I always try and cop extra nowadays for this exact reason. Nike offers free shipping and free returns so you really don't have anything to lose.

Always choose Nike over Eastbay. Although a few people got Nike cancellations, still way less than Eastbay. Historically as well, NDC is more reliable than Eastbay.
Hopefully your Eastbay pair ships out.
