UW chokes again with Adidas

Postal91

Their special edition shoe made by 100 level art students was gone before it even released. There were a few sizes available, but the majority were gone at 7am. If you said 'eff this', you made the right call. Shit, they even had a Creator's Club email that went out saying you could buy them 'now' and they still weren't available.

How much do you have to suck at your job to not be able to figure out a proper distribution???

I found the 'team' that designed the shoe, btw

I expected this to be a @jecornel thread.

Good news is you can find them on eBay right now for 3 times the price. Adidas is a fucking joke.

Forget shoes; buy watches!

I'm no sneakerhead, but I'm pretty damn sure that's how all "hot shoe releases" work. Make people line up and clamor for them and artificially suppress supply to intentionally not meet demand. Sucks if you're a schmuck who actually wanted the shoe, but that's the game baby.

Ya, but seems pretty pathetic to screw over your fans when you create a shoe for them and limit the release to only a few... never to make them again. But hey, we have an AD that runs raffles to 'win' a chance to 'buy' a shoe. Top notch.

Enough about the fucking shoes. You grown men shouldn’t be wearing them anyways.

Well, I'll be sure to tell you to pound fuckin sand when they release the Sixkiller Mocassins and you bitch at us that you couldn't get them.

Roadie had his feet bound as a kid, so he is triggered by all things shoe related.

I know that we didn't get the UW shoes we wanted but these are in stock every where and at the campus store at USC. I saw these disgusting things this weekend at the campus store. USC has a bigger fan base than we do and they still couldn't sell these turds. My brother is a big USC fan he would never buy these. So either have the cool shoes you can't get because sneaker heads beat us to them or you get stuck with the disgusting shoes no one wants. Fucked up cold world.

Way to shit on my racist joke, Mr. Serious.

I got that email about the shoes. Holy fuck were they ugly! Hoping it was a trick by the UW AD to remove all individuals who bought them from the fan base. If you are on this bored and bought them you probably deserve to have your feet amputated.
