You no read good? The online release time is right on their site...
and yes I believe other retailers will get a very small quantity of these, 90% of the stores probably won't sell them online though if I had to guess

What!? It's not like Diadora collabs are sitting anywhere and it's not like they don't show up on ebay at outrageous prices. These companies not named Nike are making quality product and people are starting to notice. Thats the hobby. I don't want to start anything but it's not like RF is the prince of Darkness. I would love to see him on a Diadora or Saucony the guy is good at what he does. Some may say this year was an off year but he hasn't released any more bad collbas that any other shop.

let RF collabs for the masses...and keep him away from diadora of course
Can't miss out on the "Transit ii" but i would love for RF to not make a collab with Diadora. This will make the trainer more known and less limited to get. 24 Kilates,Hanon and Patta even Concept i am excited for but RF i wouldn't be happy with.
N9000 is a great sneaker and other collabs are doing great job on them.. really wanna keep away all these 13year old hype beasts from this brand

worth it though. my buddy's italias are probably the best constructed shoe I've seen in awhile. materials, build, everything about the shoe IMO warrants the premium tag.

Although the suede on the italias isn't the best for my pair at least. The suede was a little rough, not as smooth as i'd like.

I 100% percent agree. My Saturday specials are one of my favorite kicks and have amazing materials. Love them.
Also they are some of the most comfortable kicks I got

The thing is that Diadora can afford to offer those high quality shoes because they are produced in really small numbers (250 for the Espressos and the first Pattas and Hanons, according to general consensus). It seems as if they've slightly raised production numbers to 300+ to keep up with the increased interest. With these numbers, it's still fairly easy to offer "made in Italy", premium material quality.
RF's collabs are released in four digit numbers by now. When he releases his Diadora collab, it will probably sell out, create a lot of new interest in Diadora and leave many people who struck out on his collab turning to the next one, which basically can only lead to two scenarios.
Diadora sticks to the small numbers and high quality materials for further collabs making it much harder to get their releases or Diadora raises production numbers significantly which may well lead to a drop in quality.
I think that's what some of the people in this thread fear. I don't think anyone is saying that a RF collab will ruin the model for them or anything. He'll probably release a solid shoe, I suppose.
