Don't get me wrong G....I'm happy to see OG kicks or CW's return but when the majority of them end up in the outlet and the 2 for 1 deal (if you're still team 1 to rock 1 to stock) is still cheaper than retail and it keeps happening you have to pause and ask if there's not a smarter strategy here you're missing. The huarache in particular Nike quickly killed here in America after bringing it back in 2014 after 23yrs. It was already rinsed in Europe, for the most part but is wildly popular in the UK. My pairs from before 2014 are still some of the sickest to me. Nike still make sick hua CW's, it's just the materials are super trash on most, funny enough many of them are the ones that are supposed to be PRM (premium).

These are nice but like 99.9% of kicks in the game right now I simply can't see how buying these at retail is anything but silly?

Yep! I love mesh toes on my Huraches.
