@Andrewgreg Are you talking about the Epic Offsets? tthey are not up on NDC as far as I know? :confused: If you are talking about the Gyakusou, nvm.
Thanks for the heads up on Mr Porter though. Got most of what I wanted @ better price :)

edit: Mr.Porter recommends TTS on all pieces, wat?

Can't believe the leaf camo jacket is 200 euros more than it was on tresbien

The prices for the Gyakusou collection are ridiculous across the board. They act like they've reinvented sportswear. **** this collection, I mean I want a few pieces but with prices like this...they can keep it. With ridiculous and inconsistent sizes for shoes, sportswear fits that border on marsupialed, and prices that make no sense ... :sarcasm:

Wait, were you guys expecting $50 jackets? Nikes pricing has been like this for limited stuff for a long while now. The Olympic 21c Windrunner is $450+ and it is made of nylon and reflective material.

The Gyakusou Lunarspeed is only marked up by $20, that isn't that bad. Those other jacket w/o the Gyakusou styling and logo is probably only about $30-$40 less at retail. A typical Nike running tee could go up to $55 and the Gyakusou is priced at $75 (which is $100 at the NikeStore so it is already 25% off at MrP), heck this Nike Speed tee is already $70: http://store.nike.com/us/en_us/?l=shop,pdp,ctr-inline/cid-1/pid-523719/pgid-508666

The quilted hoody is $360 at NDC while it is $320 at MrP and the regular Nike running vapor jacket already retails at $300.


Of course we all know we are paying for the extra logo and a unique design/style so don't be too surprised at those prices.

Wished they had more sneakers, but I still like both pair Mr. Porter has. And 130 is a decent price.

...and the Gyakusou tights are $20 less at MrP than the equivalent swift tights at the nikestore.

No, but I wasn't exactly expecting to shell out 300~ USD for a bloody jacket from Nike.

For some reason all my Nike purchases feel like a hostage negotiation. They have the jacket I want but they won't let it go for less than 500 unless I want a poor fit with questionable quality and then MAYBE they'll drop the floor price down to 300.
