Anyone know or think they will release the blue ones.
"Just enough exclusivity"
My thoughts exactly lol spoken like a true hypebeast
I wish Nike would just flood the market with the OG colorways and leave the resellers sitting on shelf turds. Prices on the bay are comical.
?? In one post you calling dude a "hypebeast" because of the "exclusivity" comment then in this you're hoping they don't release any more...?Honestly I hope they don't release anymore of these. I'd rather this not go the route of Prestos & Sock darts. Once Nike releases too many colors & an ID option it sorta kills it... For me at least
If anything I agree & hope they only release OG colorways
This. Maybe Nike didn't think they would sell that well or they're trying to create that hype, but releasing the black and white versions that will sit for a while instead of producing more of the silver/black OGs doesn't make sense to me. I was already on the fence about the $175 price tag, but no way in h*$$ am I paying over that for these even though they were the only shoes I had planned on purchasing this summer.I just wish they'd have released enough pairs so that guys in this thread, like myself, could've scored. eBay has 2 sz13's in the OG and both are 275-350$+ BIN smdh.

Why wouldn't you want them to produce more of the OGs so that everyone that wanted them gets them?
I really enjoy articles like this! Thanks! 2 of my top 3 NIKE runners (Spiridon & OG Silver 97 Air Max) were designed by this dude, nice to hear about the process. I would be absolutely elated if Nike retroed the 97 in it's OG CW.Another great read from Gary Warnett.

Thank you. At least someone understood what I was trying to sayI really enjoy articles like this! Thanks! 2 of my top 3 NIKE runners (Spiridon & OG Silver 97 Air Max) were designed by this dude, nice to hear about the process. I would be absolutely elated if Nike retroed the 97 in it's OG CW.
It always rubs me the wrong way when Nike produces a **** ton of ugly, uninspired CWs of a sneaker that donsent sell while the OG-usually the most diserable-is scarce.
I agree with the anology about the Nike Roshe. Theres nothing worse than seeing some punk kid or soccer mom- who knows nothing about sneakers- wearing the same model as you because Nike (adidas, etc) overproduced the sneaker in a million undesirable CW's & now its heavily discounted. Kills the allure/appeal of the shoe.
Adidas is doing this with the NMD. The black OG is a nice, clean sneaker. Some of whats been released latley, not so much. JMHO
Honestly I hope they don't release anymore of these. I'd rather this not go the route of Prestos & Sock darts. Once Nike releases too many colors & an ID option it sorta kills it... For me at least

Who cares who else is wearing them and how many people are wearing them? As long as YOU like them and buy the colorways that YOU like, what does it matter?
They could bring out a new colorway of the Spiridon every weekend for all I care. It's a great silhouette that is a classic, so why wouldn't I want easier access to them?
If other people and what they're doing (or not doing) factors into what shoes YOU buy, you're a beast.
Buy and wear what you like. Period.
First in line at blends this morning . I get hit with the " we didn't get a sz 12".
