For a dude that frequents the Sneakerhead thread you sure seem out of touch bruh. I would expect these kinds of posts from the strictly hard bottoms crowd, I don't even know where to begin. it's 1:30 in the afternoon and the adidas site is moving like molasses, and that's if you can even get it to load.

I saw someone in here say more people wanted the X's that dropped more than the Yeezy's :smh:

those oreo 4's are sitting everywhere because everyone is trying to cop Yeezys

Man, I don't even like the adidas Yeezy's but I saw the way twitter lit up when the app to reserve a pair dropped, I saw the people here for all-star weekend beasting to get pics in front of the window. I'm a Nike head but c'mon, some of these cats posts come off like they're hoping he/the shoe fails and that just isn't based in reality.


Aye mrJR, if these cats think those punk ass grey joints sold out fast just wait until the black ones drop :smh:

sooooo Yeezy's sold out within 30 mins with their site crashing badly
:smh:

Site was crashed at 11CST, it never worked. All 56k sold out? There's a reason they're not releasing them in stores...this "crashing site" stuff plays well into the exclusivity.
Yep. Kanye ho as said he wanted the price lowered and the production kicked up. Adidas told him stfu. Then again who knows what the truth is. Kanye probably is lying through his fucking teeth and purposely limited release and jacked u price. This is the same cat who said "im bout to call the paparazzi on myself" and then married a bitch who actually does just that. Cant trust anything this guy says.

That being said. I tried to grab a pair for the fuck of it, and i have yet to get adidas shitty site to load.

And you sound like a fuckin hypebeast

I'd buy them too if I can sell them for $1,200. That doesn't mean shit.

Adidas site is pure shit, so the site crashing is no surprise. They're not used to the influx of traffic at once like the other sites.

And what the fuck are you talking about with the Jordan X.

Jordan sold a couple of 100,000 X's.

Adidas sold a could of 10,000 Boost.

So which one was more in demand :confused:

BGOL Biz: How in the hell is a multi-million dollar machine like Adidas unprepared for this?

What they didn't think Kanye would garner this much attention and response?

How can their website be slow?

How much sales are they losing over this?

and what happen to all those sneakerheads who posted earlier that these wouldn't sell and Nike wouldn't feel it?

You mean to tell me Nike got such a strangle hold on the sneaker industry they DON'T want this Yeezy money AND buzz???

And if Kanye had just went out and manufactured his OWN shoe?

Couldn't he have sold this exclusively on his own site and even sell autographed pairs and packages with his music and make all this money for HIMSELF???

You're emotions are clouding your judgment sis, when did I say I even want the sneaker? :confused:

X's usually sit, that's just a fact. The only X's I've EVER seen fly off the shelves were the Chicago X's.

I don't know if Kanye or some cat wearing Adidas stole your yorkie, but when you're ready to have a sneaker discussion without being in your feelings I'm here

Sites crash man, it happens to Nike, Footlocker, Finishline and Eastbay EVERYTIME a decent retro drops, they even created a spa page to deal with the traffic.

As far as the sneakerheads who said it wouldn't sell, well... "Ya'll niggas deal with emotions like bitches..." - Nas "Ether" :dunno: I don't know any real sneakerhead who thought those high top moccasins weren't going to sell

My emotions :lol:

Who mentioned who? You seem offended that I talked about that ugly ass Sport Ugg.

You come here talking about a website crashing as if it means anything at all. Because there's a line at McDonald's that means that it's the best food ever?

X's sit? They put out like 300,000, so if they sell 200,000 in a fuckin day, that means what :dunno:

Sneaker discussion? There is no discussion to have. You're comparing a company putting out 300,000 sneakers every two weeks in addition to their QS releases to one putting out 30,000 as if that's a legit fuckin comparison.

:confused: You responded to me and said I "sound like a fucking hypebeast" we can't have this conversation if you can't keep track of what you're saying. I also told homie that sites crash, it happens.

Also, when did I compare Nike to Yeezy's? If this discussion is going to go any further you're going to have to at least read my initial post, which was directed at you, in it's entirety because you clearly didn't.

X's sit. You can spin it however you want, but they still sit on shelves. You sound like a Nike fanboy, if it makes you feel better I think if Nike dropped a new (or even a re-release) Yeezy colorway this morning the Adidas kicks would have sat for a while, at least until the Nike Yeezy's sold out

Now I'M the one that's emotional :lol: Your spin game is weak sis. Take this "L" and move to the back of the line

Sis?

You bitch ass skinny jean faggot getting in to your feelings because of what I said about the Yeezy's to some other muthafucka. And you call me sis?

You're a bitch ass muthafucka, so it's no surprise why you want those faggot ass Ugg's to look like a bitch, because there's no possible way they look manly. You might as well wear some fuckin high heels.

Come in here talking about a website crashing, as if that means anything. Only hypebeast care about that shit. Just like looks don't matter, because you only care about them because of the name attached. But hey, your masculinity doesn't matter either.

Take this L?

What the fuck did you win?

The right to look like a bitch? The right to look like a follower? The right to look like a faggot?

Did you even get them?

You're up here promoting and giddy over some shit someone else designed like you're getting a fuckin cut.

Have some fuckin dignity Kanye worshippin bitch ass corny muthafucka. I'm sure faggots have more self respect than you.

Are you not reading the posts because of the tears in your eyes? At no point in this thread did I say I wanted the sneakers sis. But you're emotional and I know how this works, go head and get the last word. It's your thread girl

So...those gym red 10s didn't sell out immediately & hit the resell market hard? All star weekend, those were the shoes to get.


those oreo 4's are sitting everywhere because everyone is trying to cop Yeezys

C'mon man, those shoes aint been out in 16 years...if these were the Oreo 6s, you may have a point. Those are higher demand. Nobody checking for those 4s like they aint check for the lady liberty 10s. People check for the original 4 colorways.

Yes, the bulls over broadway's (like every other ASW release) sold out quick and hit the resell market :dunno: what's your point? I said more people wanted the Yeezy's than the X's and I stand by it, I'm confused about how that's even up for debate. Do ya'll not remember the online frenzy when the red october's dropped randomly? :confused:

I'm talking the specific release two weekends ago. My point was as I said, the 10 was wanted more than the Yeezy. Just looking at FB & the trends & hashtags on twitter...I stand by it. And no...not every other ASW release sold out quickly. The liberty Js, KDs, kobe, brons, PGs are still out there and didn't move well. Only the red 10s, Kyrie & Hardens sold out like that.

I haven't seen the Lebron's sitting anywhere, but I'll take your word. That said, FB trends and hashtags were crazy for the Yeezy's, that's how I even knew about the pic dropping, the app etc etc. Agree to disagree fam

And adidas seems clueless at handling such a high demand product. Amazing a company that old doesnt have experience in such a launch and demand.

FYI


“Boost” is a completely separate company from Adidas they sold adidas their boost technology for several years and their contract is ending soon. Adidas has no ownership of the boost technology that’s why all of their shoes now have boost in them because with the expiring contract they are trying to milk it for all it has.

Boost came to Nike about three years ago with their technology and Nike declined because they were working on their own version which is the Nike react technology.


Adidas ain’t shit without boost right now
