OFFICIAL: NIKE ZOOM KD IV THREAD: Galaxy Returning

Nike has done it. They have wanted and tried to make KD into a marketable player and push him into LeBron and Kobe-like territory with his signature line. No one wanted KDs the last three seasons but now because of clever marketing schemes and getting them in the hands and on the feet of "sneaker" rappers (Wale, Drake) everyone wants them. I'm the last "sneakerhead" to @#%!%, complain and whine about hype but that is what these two releases are. Maybe I am just salty because I've been buying KDs and I really want them in my collection and on my feet and being two hours from a House Of Hoops, having to be at work at 8:30 AM I wasn't able to get a pair. Oh, well, I'll rely on a reselling I guess.

The list is made so people can sit in their cars and don't have to wait outside in the cold. Every car that pulls up is approached by whoever has the list, making sure they get their spot, and if you leave for more than a food/bathroom run you lose your spot. I'd 100% rather have this than a huge rush to the door, people sneaking inside, etc. I'm REAL bummed I was one person away from getting my pair, but it wasn't because of the list. The 13 people in front of me were just there longer, bottom line. In the summer, yeah, I agree they should just have a typical line, but in the winter this is definitely the best idea.

Went to HOH willowbrook was 22nd in line. Only 15 pairs went out to the public. I'm really shocked at how limited these were. Oh well, tons of good kicks coming out the rest of the month, so onto the next one.

I gave up on gettin the Weathermans and the Nerfs..even gettin the Chinas. I will stick with a XMas, All-star, release as far as exclusive KDIV´s. I WILL get the Easters and the Cool Greys..and ordered the Blackouts already to hoop in. I really dont care if all these non-KD fans are going crazy for Weathermans,Nerfs, and soon the Chinas. Im like go rite ahead..cuz it gets them out my way when i buy normal GR KD´s..and i buy them cuz i mess with Durant and his sneaks like that. I aint just trying to get a certain color cuz the masses is doing so. Watch..by time Spring hit..nobody will be talkin how they gonna wait in line for Durants kicks. And personally i dint want his line to go out like this JB re-retro releases where bammas be camping out all pressed for some low quality sneaks. Already skipped school back in the day to cop Mike´s kicks..when this dude was gettin his @ss kicked by the Pistons..when i was in TC williams. Now i guess im a old head..but i still gets it in..hoopin in Europe..and stay ballin in Durants.
