Do people actually like these super limited collabs?

Feeling bummed after missing out on the Kith BW army shoes both in the raffle and during the general release. This is after I took an L on the recent Patta Air Max 1s (ended up paying resale on impulse which was probably dumb).

I don’t tend to go for collabs generally, but those two in particular were shoes I really liked and wanted badly. I just don’t get why they need to be this limited? Like I had both shoes in my basket on the dot of the release time but they ended up being removed before I got to pay.

Do people actually like this “exclusivity” collabs have? I understand some exclusivity but at least let them be available for more than a few minutes on release 😂.

The recent Hartcopy Bw Army shoes which I managed to cop were done pretty well. Multiple raffles and releases and have been a few restocks too without them selling out immediately after they released. Still some exclusivity but not completely inaccessible.

I just feel frustrated because I don’t care about hype, I go for shoes that I like and those two collabs were shoes I really liked yet I barely got a chance to get either. I’m holding out hope that resale on the Kith BW armies isn’t too high but not holding my breath. Really don’t wanna overpay again like I did for the Pattas. Gonna try and visit the London store on the weekend and see if I have any luck but again not holding my breath.

Any chance the BW Army shoes drop on Adidas/confirmed?

Didn’t get picked in the draw for the brown/burgundy ones and the shoe sold out in my size when it was in my cart sadly when they dropped at 11 (UK time). Is there any chance they drop again on Adidas/confirmed? Or is that it? Wanted these shoes since I first saw pics so pretty bummed out.
