heard from a reliable source these aren't as limited as usual... that being said, there's way more people interested in them now, so it's still not gonna be easy.

i'll be curious how flat white laces look in these (provided that midsole is plain white)...

^ the way they handled the list at kith Manhattan made it seem pretty limited to me

100 something. Then they saved a few for friends etc.

If I strike out with the flamingos then I'm trying for the RTA Kamikaze .. If I miss both then I guess it wasn't meant to be n I just saved myself money lol

They release an hour apart. Go for both.

does internet speed have a great factor in a successful cop off the kith site or is it straight luck?

I heard 70 out of 200 tickets at Kith manhattan were given out.  Rumor has it they could go towards online release...

 

[higuy]

would make sense that he puts more stock online so that everyone in NYC isnt seen with them, gives the false impression that theyre as limited as his older releases, when really they're not.

 

[sdotc38109]

^ It's the biggest city in the U.S. so I highly doubt that.

 

[higuy]

^ youre forgetting the fact (still dont understand why people refuse to believe/accept this) that production numbers for these flamingos are much larger. 4x his early stuff. he needs his customers to keep believing theyre a rare commodity. at those production numbers, theyd be more common on the streets and lose its appeal. if theyre spread out across the country/world through online orders, he can fatten his pockets while people in NYC still maintain that exclusive feel they seem to crave.

Yes Internet speed will always be a factor with online drops obviously. Glad I've got that FIOS, it's worth the money. Pages load legit the second you click on them.

And higuy is right. If the people that are only in it for the hype were to figure out that they aren't nearly as limited as RF says then they'd likely not even be interested and he'd lose $$. It's in his best interests to not release the majority of pairs in NYC and throw em online, that way people don't run into each other all the time wearing them.

Not really, because I know he knows at least 40% of them sold instore will be sold on ebay and most likely leave the state if he did think like that.

That makes sense I suppose.
People are free to believe what they want. All I can do is pass along info. I thought it would come as good news to most, but people seem to want to believe that it's not true lol.

 

[bad lieutenant]

It's a great news to me^^
