Welcome to NikeTalk. Speak for your own region.
 
Hell, there was even one that went down in Vegas that was calling for NTers nationwide, and that was even a success.

I wear all my sneakers. I need those Solar reds in my life, the platinums are secondary, but still wanted.

Whoa there

[dweeb813]

Is it bad i'm going hard to get these so i can trade them for yeezy 1s?

i'll definitely rock them if i can't find a ds pair to trade for.

 

[icysoles718]

raffle really wouldn't be a bad idea, but how would this go down? Like a day before the release date? Anyway is better than
camping for multiple days.

 

[toughmoney]

well I guess raffles are a good idea. Still going to have those bums bring their whole family and crew that don't know what yeezy's even are. At least they aren't guaranteed a pair tho.

HOH's will get them. Great now I only have to make a 3 hour drive in hopes of being lucky enough to win a raffle. Living in SC FTL. Still dont understand why Nike completely leaves out certain states from a lot of releases. We have sneaker heads down here

 

[ksteezy]

Yeezys being more durable than foams??....HELLLL NOOOO...besides Yellowing of the clear soles the shoe can look new for years even after moderate wear....not the case for yeezys, however you are a fool if you think there is anything else the foams have on the Yeezys.

Comfort???....unless youve placed your foot into the 1's you wouldnt begin to imagine the level of comfort of this shoe, ive seriously never owned a pair of kicks as comfortable, not even air maxes....let alone foams
look???.....you crazy, im a fan of both, but the yeezy is by far a better looking shoe....then againj that would be subjective.
Price???....both overpriced, but one you are paying 220$ for a shoe that is becoming extremely saturated, they come in nearly every color and everyone has them, the other you pay 30$ extra, for the exclusivity....no big deal really....we all enjoy exclusivity.....ive literally only seen about 5 people walking in Y1's in the street and they've been out for what??....3-4 years?

i am close to 3 hours from the nearest store that will sell them as well which is why sometimes you just have to take a step back and look at the big picture.  i cant speak for others but for myself it looks like this:
yeezys-            $270(after tax)

gas-                 $200(roughly)

sustenance-      $25-50 (over what i would spend if at home)

work loss-        $3-400 (estimating 1-2days of work lost)

loss of dignity-  $priceless

raise stress-      $priceless

loss of comfort  $priceless

so adding the first four would bring my minimum COGS to attain one pair(in person) to the $795-920 range roughly.  now factor in the last three and you can see how i will GLADLY wait until after they release and buy a pair from the comfort of my home, same way i did with the first release(which i got all three for under $500 each).  so please stop stressin people, especially if you are a fair distance from the closest store.  if you REALLY LIKE them, then just save a little extra and buy them afterwards, let someone else do all the leg work (for WAY below minimum wage i might add)
