I'm dead. Don't even know what to do - hit Nike up or accept it since it's the outsole but DAMN HOW THOUGH

Edit: two more pics for comparison:

Wow that is turrible! My Barca had a little imperfection on the pultab but it's not too bad, this however is on a another level. I called in to Coporate to complain, still waiting for a response from the uppers.
 
Picked up the black horse yesterday but wasnt able to use my vip. I guess it does vary from store to store. Anyway these are so fire, could be top 3 XI's for me. The lining, pull tabs, almost wax like laces, and the leather tongue def give the premium feel. Essential for the fall season. Got a diff pair of XI's coming in the mail today, ill post pics when they arrive

Sheesh.  For a premium version of an already premium shoe, thats pretty unacceptable.  How some of these make it through QC is a mystery to me.  I'd return them for sure, unfortunately they'll probably end up on a hash wall somewhere.
 
talked to a rep and she tried to help me locate a pair to exchange on NDC and my nearest NikeTown but i already knew she wouldn't find anything. the good thing about this defect is that it's on the bottom of the shoe and it doesn't feel different when wearing them. but the bad thing is the defect looks like it needs to be on dr pimple popper. so i'm gonna hang on to this pair and wait for a possible restock and see how i feel then.

That's a glow in the dark sole on the day of the dead isn't it?

Last week the thought came to me that Grinch em's could pop up around Christmas.

I'm confident they will.  Meanwhile, a small sneaker shop in my area has the EM 3Ds @ $90.  Didn't even bother to see if new, used, whatever.
