How is that ?Originally Posted by higuy
fail? more like sales geniuses.Originally Posted by teamfreshh
Lol Nike is such a fail, these dudes wont even come out and release a statement on the shoes at all. Nike is so tight lipped on these making it seem like they have a connection to area 51 or something
Lol, has that ever happened before? I'm w/ you though. Sounds highly likely.Originally Posted by memphissfinest
I'M STARTING TO THINK THESE WILL RELEASE UNANNOUNCED.
I would assume that what higuy's trying to say is that Nike is creating more hype/buzz/anticipation to the shoe, therefore increasing the possibility of getting even more sales from it. It can be argued though that the Yeezy 2's doesn't need additional hype, but we have to bear in mind that a little more hype won't hurt the folks at BeavertonOriginally Posted by teamfreshh

I was in that position leading up to the 1's, I can't even imagine the madness with the 2's.Originally Posted by Stuntman Mike

especially if there's any truth to the chatter about more production/availibility.Originally Posted by higuy

anyway, who the hell is familiar with Beaverton... Any truth to some program called "Bullpen" that spits out production date info? Wolf Greys 03/12 - 06/12 and Black Solar Reds 05/12 - 08/12
If I remember correctly "bullpen" is a program like the nikefind system to locate products.

The detailed photos are not official Nike photos.

Rarely would be an understatement, but it has indeed happened before. I remember first retro of the Foamposite One in 2007 drew the same kind of hype/hysteria. There was NO release date, NO confirmed stores (foams hadn't really released the way they are now). They just sorta popped up and the word spread.Originally Posted by ericjunior

I've wondered the same thing about Footlocker and House of Hoops locations. Nike has implemented a widespread Social media presence for all of their NikeTown locations, and they're pretty good at releasing information. Footlocker on the other hand? I'm not sure what their hold up is, but lol ... I could help them with that!Originally Posted by bigkel23
I wonder why all national retailers (NT/HOH) & some others just dnt open a twitter account (regional locations) if they dnt already have one & start using the online registration method for crazy releases like this honestly... The way these OVER HYPED releases are looking is CRAZY right now, going to a store on a 1st come 1st serve basis isn't going to cut it anymore. The releases have to catch w/ the technology that's out here b/c once any kind of info gets out it is shared by millions in a matter of seconds. Dnt bash me b/c this is just a suggestion, I kno there will still be people who are not happy but posting up at a store for over a month to secure some shoes is insane & I for one can't compete w/ that due to having a life....
All I'm saying is for these type of releases stores need to come up w/ a better solution to handle craziness like this:
