The White-Red colorway just dropped today, but I am in a foul mood. Why, is the colorway not to my liking? Or is it something deeper? The biggest size they are making this colorway in is size 12 just like they did with the (Black-North Carolina Blue) from last month.
I made some calls to Niketown: Chicago, Las Vegas, New York and even Nike.com as well as Eastbay.com but got nothing but bad news in return. They kept telling me no one knows what is really going on. I can only guess Nike is mad that the Air Jordan 2009 flopped and the first colorway of White-Black-Red did soo bad that they want to cut down on risks. This would lead to the only good reason of keeping sizes 8-12, the aesthetics of 8-12 are always the best.
So what will happen next month when the all black come out and the month after that when the white and grey (or silver) come out? I don’t know. I fear the worst, a big part of my summer plan was to buy both of those shoes, now I don’t know what to do.
