Nike’s Grateful Dead Dunk release had everyone ripping the SNKRS app

Another day, another L. Such is life for sneakerheads with Nike’s SNKRS app.

People everywhere got up on Friday morning to enter Nike’s raffle for the Grateful Dead SB Dunks. These shoes were made to pay homage to the classic rock band.

Did people really care about that? No, of course not. Most of the people who entered the raffle probably didn’t even listen to the Grateful Dead.

These shoes were just so beautiful, yo. They’re incredible. Easily one of the cleanest releases of the year. That yellow? That blue? Just amazing.

Look at them. They’re equal parts ridiculous and glorious.

Problem was everyone and their mother’s cousin’s uncle entered in the raffle to get them. And they were already low in stock.

Remember the Chunky Dunky’s? Yeah, apparently there were more of those available than the Grateful Dead joints. And we see how that turned out.

So, the basic principles of supply and demand says this was about to be a train wreck. And that was absolutely correct — it was a train wreck. The L’s were in abundance this morning.

And there are plenty more where those came from. The L’s got so bad that “Another L” started trending on Twitter.

The best part? This is all happening again on Saturday when the Off-White Jordan 4 release drops. It’s so lit.
