appear? or actually make it happen? cause it is quite limited, limited to online... I was able to confirm it by going to locations that i would think would have it.

most sizes

few sizes (funny because this is the highest price for a regular online retailer)

....anyway, far from limited. I bet these pop up in regular stores down the line.

Asia releases also have XDR (extra durable rubber) outsoles. Dont think all full logo pairs are asia tho... All Stars, Red Camos, Volts, and both EXT versions released with full logo in the US.

Thanks. I'm sorry. I think it sounded different in my head while typing than when reading. I meant the shoes are only sold online. I went to Niketown SF and the main SF mall, Westfield San Francisco Centre and both didn't have it. The niketown employee knew what I was talking about, while the one at Westfield confused the Volts with the "Dark Atomic Teal/Electric Yellow-Atomic Teal" ones. That actually annoyed me when he came out saying "this is the last pair" even though I know they use this line for all grabs from the back because of his lack of shoe knowledge and release dates. I ordered mine already for NDC, but I was hoping to use the birthday coupon at a footlocker. I may just return all the NDC ones, order a pair of Volts to ship to a footlocker store then return them just to rebuy with the birthday coupon. Too much work to save $25?

if its worth it to you to save $25, o it. Why not. Like someone mentioned before, dude bought 5 or 6 pairs of 8s, all with bday coupons. Basically, its like he got a pair free with savings.

I reread what I typed and I released how long typing it out was, it stand to reason that actually doing it will be even more work. quite the hassle... so I guess it ain't worth it for me. I have been enlightened by dub, not by an answer but by a counter question.

Huge DUKE fan from the 90's so I'm copping those with out question.

And Easters at the end of the month. Has it been said that they will be available in GS. My lady wants a pair too.

Same here. Started when I was just a little tyke and they won the first Chip... never looked back since. If it aint Duke blue I dont want it, and I sure as #$%^ aint wearin nothing with baby blue in it. Had to pass on those Blue Lights for that reason. If they release with the logo I will pay top dollar to cop.
