Yep, really sucks for all of us who wanted that color.
I would like to twist the neck of the Nike exec who wrote that memo to release a week early.
I had mine locked up but they sold out before my boy got to work.
Oh well, waiting for my coopers to arrive.

I think it was just the way his pic came out. I picked the max orange's up yesterday and copped a fitted. Not sure about the hats in the pic back but the orange on the G's and O's hats in the store was actually the same orange. This may not be the case with all of G and O hats but the "on the field authentics" had the same orange.

Ehhh no. Just because all the fools on ebay are listing them at 500 bones doesnt mean they will get that unless its from another fool
As I mentioned before.. everyone wants the next limited colorway of SOMETHING to hit South Beach Status... not gonna happen. That was an aberration.
These are nice but it's a black show with Orange.Listing fees will get some folks to soon come down on price. Reselling aint what people think it is on every shoe.
I look forward to them coming down.. altho limited as a mug.

I'm East Coast QC (Charlotte) but actually went with the SF hat first. I'm going to cop a O's hat with a orange bill for the spring. Right now, I'm trying to limit the amount of orange I put with these bad boys for the fall and winter months.Originally Posted by sneakermane
Ninja.....^^^^ throwback Suns jersey is FIRE!
And you right.....All Blacks are gonna be a problem. So sick. These Rookies are just a dope shoe...period. And I usually don't &@#% with hybrids.
Damn white/blacks are gonna dig into my Concords money. But it's all good, I need those too.
They just changed the hat logo back to the cartoon bird this week. I was running around the house doing cartwheels.
I hated that anatomically correct bird.
Cartoon Bird.....FTW!
I still think the Orange is the same for both Orioles & Giants. Where are my west coast heads? Nobody has a Giants fitted to post with these Rookies?

seems like the oranges were much more limited considering only HoH got them and they only got a few pairs each

^there is a colorway very similar to those that just dropped, the black/binary blue colorway. that pair in the picture looks more like a royal or neon blue which i like, i problay would of copped the black/binary blue if they would of made the blue neon or royal like the neon blue foam ones.

was going to cop binarys and all blacks, but no forefoot zoom= no thanks. just copped some black lime foams instead. still can't believe nike is getting over folks like this. I guess since its a nike sportswear non retro release (and not basketball release) they can do stuff like this. although they did do the zoom right in the foams and flightposites...
Great marketing on nike's part.
