@@@ REEBOK @@@ SHAQ ATTACKS @@@

I don't think so (for Nike/JB that formula might be working to some extend, but not so sure for Reebok/Adidas/Fila), I personally missed the White's, but I will never buy any of that no OG clown colorways. I think Nike/JB/Reebok have it backwards, should have made the everyone's familiar and desirable OG colorways widely available and leave the funny business limited. 

 

[senorroboto2k5]

All these companies often limit the OG colorways because they want to create a hoopla around the release, and they know people are likelier to jump through all these hoops for a highly regarded OG

Using the hype from limited OG's to launch the new colorways forward... not a strategy I would use myself, but it's the only reason I can see for Reebok trying such a thing.

The OG colors could help sell the new colors (with hype)... but it probably wouldn't work the other way around.

My strategy? Reebok should put effort into making the new colors look, you know, good

It's not a strategy I would try for my own shoe brand if I had one... but it's the only reason why Reebok would try such a thing.

This. The Kamikaze II's sold well because most of the non-OG colorways that Reebok came up with looked good on the silhouette, not because people were still salty about missing out on the OG. These Shaqnosis and Attaq colorways... these are gonna sit.

I do understand what they are doing, but like yourself I don't agree with that, I don't think is the right strategy. By limiting the OG's they only let re-sellers and hype-beasts make a profit and the company is not getting anything back from that profit. If people like that exist and people that are ready to pay double and more the price exist as well, that automatically should speak back to Nike/Reebok/JB that obviously there a lot more people that what to buy the model that they were anticipating. I am really interested to know what is their potential profit on clown colorways they think they will sale after the Hype strategy on the OG's VS the simple solution to make the OG's GR and just sale more of them...

Shaq Attaq Black Azure In HD

Dude said the leather looks whack?

 

[noblekane]

Well back in the old days...
There was the White/Blue with Orange Pump, shortly after that it was replaced by the Black Pump version, there was the Black/Blue version (with glossy Blue at the back). Later they re-released with Insta Pump on both versions, but the Black/Blue had the blue on the back replaced by suede and all black midsole, more perforations on the side and tow-box and different inner-liner (like on the pic you posted). 

watch the next time reebok retros the white pair they gonna use the orange ball im callin it now

 

[noblekane]

Dude said the leather looks whack?

probably cuz its shiny

shoulda made them all durabuck/nubuck like the shaq 2

 

[tigo0240]

got my white attaqs today, size 14. Worth every penny! Slightly shorter fit than the shaqnosis though.
 

 

[dreamteamusa]

^^

Yeap, it was the top release of 2013 thus far in my opinion. Just wish the toe box didn't crease so easily

 

[onlyjs]

Does anybody know or have a slight idea how many white pairs released since swizz lied about another 10-12k releasing

Probably because he's used to the anti-crease/cardboard crap JB uses....

 

[dreamteamusa]

I'd monitor the link below closely in case of an early drop on the Black Attaqs. Reebok.com has been dropping releases a lil' early these days so you never know.

I actually haven't brought a Jordan since 2009... as far as the leather on the shoe... its soft but looks ehhh... reminds me of the leather on the bootleg pepe coats down on delancy st... it has a very thin coat of PU which gives off the ehh look... I also don't like mostly black sneakers so that can be it... at the end of the day the shoe isn't impressive to me at all ... sorry I was just trying to show u guys a early look

 

[dreamteamusa]

Well well....appears reebok has posted them up size 7 thru 14 but it when I try adding to the cart it won't work. Either way, this is the correct link. Disregard my post above.
