What's good with Nike Elite Basketbal Crew socks? (SOCKS FTW!)

how does an "outlet" sell elite socks at "MSRP"?
and even on 1 pair it says "$12.00" and they put a sticker over it saying "Suggested Price: $14.00 Our Price : $14.00"....
doesn't seem very outlet'y to me....

this fact made me realize that, these socks are a hot enough commodity that they are not even dropping prices at the outlets....
LAME!

Mis-stitching probably. Unnoticeable...but there, which is why it made it to outlets I guess.

Thanks....
but isn't the point of going to the outlets so they are cheaper than retail?
I mean, even on NDC, they are only $12.00 (granted you have to pay shipping ....)
just kinda threw me for a loop....
 
Got them today, and there really comfortable, a little thinner than the regular elites though. They also look really awesome. I can't wait until april when the other colors release.

Thanks, shipping kills it though.

All colors will release in April. This was a *limited pre-release type thing. They look great in person though

These are somehow different. The ones just released DO NOT have Pro Combat padding on the heel and these are also called the Vapor Elite Crew. Looks like i'll be waiting until april for these

you're right, but i was using it more as a reference for the available colors rather than a comparison.

i imagine the colors will still be the same.
