MEGA New Miami Adidas UltraboostšŸ”„ - The Shoe and Nike/Adidas Thread.

Ya know...I'm not saying that I MYSELF would do this...but I do sometimes come up with some very vengeful ideas...

So if adidas is going to face some blowback...and if the Yeezy brand adidas line is essentially worthless...then what adidas SHOULD do is to start making Yeezys again, and then mass-market them. Make them nearly indistinguishable from the original Yeezys. Price them super-cheap. Sell them in large quantities at Marshall's and Kohl's. Sell them at low-price/high-quantity overseas.

Essentially, get whatever you can get (monetarily) and destroy the collectible market. How much worse could it possibly be for adidas anyhow? If Kanye and his fans want to play clout games, adidas could let them do so, and then flood the market. Sure, adidas loses the Kanye-supporting piece of the customer base, but possibly looks "strong" by not bending over for Kanye. It's risky, but who knows? I don't see a lot of great alternatives for adidas.

Again, just spit-balling here. I'm fascinated to watch this "battle of idiots" play itself out.

I think the best solution by far is just time. Seriously a year or two from now people are going to move on to the next thing then adidas will be able to sell them at much reduced public backlash. Idk why they need to rush or have any of this getting leaked for a while. but they absolutely should sell higher volumes at lower cost than they were before.

Yes; & part of the issue w/ Adidas (& Iā€™ve read a lot of their contracts from endorsements to partnership collaborations) is the ambiguous language thatā€™s found. Itā€™s so ambiguous that even their execs get caught slipping not fully understanding their legal obligations.

Itā€™s going to be very interesting times for this company. They are hemorrhaging right now. They recently had another shareholders call informing them of another evaluation hit that may take them into 2024. Then I heard if they re-release the Yeezyā€™s, thereā€™s going to be major blow back from consumers which will further devalue their brand.

You know, thereā€™s something else I wanna point out about Ye: I legit think heā€™s a narcissist. Whenever chit hits the fan, he always seems contrite & humble; yet, once things start going his way, no one can understand his genius, heā€™s too big for anyone can comprehend.

One thing I hate is when ppl try to sound intelligent. Ye is acting as if heā€™s doing something for the ppl or what heā€™s doing is unique. Itā€™s well known that Shaq left Reebok, Marbury started his own brand, Hakeem refused to sign w/ a big brand b/c they wanted their products available for the common folk, too. Also, Ye is not doing this from altruistic spirit; thereā€™s an agenda & angle which points back to him. He wants to convince the masses that heā€™s a good guy.

I remember my ex went to go feed the homeless to show everyone she was a good person after all the b.s she put me & others through. Did she just do it quietly? No; she had to broadcast it to everyone to change the narrative on her. Took pics w/ them & all. Now ask if she ever did it again; lol. Ye is a guy whoā€™s very strategic in postering himself. Canā€™t knock him for it b/c his fans will eat this up.

These valentine forces? And moving forward, never leave the house in suede shoes w/o spraying them down w/ a protectant, first. Suede are **** shoes, but are easily messed up. But yeah, my guy @hiphopanimal gave u the right one. Also, MGK Shoes have a great bundle product w/ white touch for soles, cleaner, & water/dirt repellant.
