If the link doesn't work do a search on ' Big Hurt ' - both colours are available.

On another note Reebok is really incompetent for not reaching out to Frank Thomas before dropping these. The insole has his trademark and logo on it plus the higher price tag would lead some to believe that he was already getting some cut from each sale.

They could in theory swap out the insoles but hopefully they can reach some sort of agreement.

I'm sure Reebok will just cut him a check.  Also if you ordered from SNS expect shipping delays as they are having a sitewide sale.
 
vood99 vood99 is right, all Reebok should do is replace the shoe pad with a regular one and avoid using Thomas' nickname.However, It might be cheaper to just cut him a check.

Nice! Ashame you don't get to see it at all while you rock them. Why hide it there only? Prolly cus they knew Bo would get pissed lol.

Sooo tempted, want both...can't do it, but I can, tough decision, that $105 is too nice

I just got them from SneakersnStuff. Got nervous after reading that Frank Thomas is suing Reebok that these might not ever get out. 

Another reason I need to cop, potentially not releasing in the states, man oh man

I'm tempted, just can't push myself to do it right now.

This..

Damn, now I'm tempted to buy both pairs. ****

THIS!!
 
insole swap isnt that big of a problem so i wouldnt be too wrroied about these not releasing

I dunno, they've already been marketed as the reebok big hurt so frank thomas could argue that even if they remove the branding and the name he would still be entitled to money that reebok may not be willing to pay. Tough call
 
Yeah, I'm not sure it would be just an insole swap. I haven't looked into it too much but everything I've read says that Frank Thomas wants the Shoe to stop being sold completely.

I would just cut FT a cheque and be done with it. The price point of the Big Hurt retro seems to indicate that they already were paying him royalties.

They would need to remove the insoles and change the box label to something else in order to get past the trademark issues.
