I have been swamped with a lot of work to the point where I can’t devote enough time to the usual projection posts on the site. I literally have to carefully select what sneakers are worth mentioning; Nike sneakers always take precedence over nay other brands but this afternoon I chose to make a prediction on the number of pairs of the Game of Thrones x Adidas Ultra Boost that could’ve been possibly made. Adidas usually provides the consumer with the list stockists via the Store Finder on their website but this time the brand chose to go the “circus ” route

Good morning, guys. This is Taya from Asa Kix here
0:04
Take whatever you want. Go ahead. Good morning, guys. This Typh from Asa Kix. I was just talking to my wife real quick
0:13
I had to squeeze this show this morning early because I wrote an article yesterday about the Game of Thrones
0:19
I did this ultra boost, but I never got a chance to like share it last night. So I wanted to do it early this morning and before, whatever
0:27
If you watch it, good. If you don't. I'm sorry, man. I just have too much going on
0:32
And for me to squeeze this through, like the days, it's just very hard
0:37
So anyway, so the Game of Thrones is coming out today, I believe, right, at 22nd
0:41
And my job was to figure out how many pairs were made. Now, usually, actually, let me share my screen
0:46
because now you don't need to see my face anymore. Usually what I do is I'll go on, I did this
0:54
and I'll look at the brains, the Starfinder app. to trying to figure out what stores are getting and I make my assumption
1:03
But this morning, like yesterday when I was writing it, when I went, didn't have that. And I kind of wanted to inquire a little more
1:09
So I clicked this and I read this over here. Quantities are limited, of course
1:16
And each shoe will be sold through virtual waiting room. Participant will be selected at random to purchase
1:23
And I'm like, man, again, another one of the circus again. Like, just keep it simple
1:28
but I realize why Adidas is doing this Like if you think about it the NMD has not been relevant all right A lot of the shoes from Adidas have not been relevant A lot of my articles are like Nike Bayes for the most part
1:41
So the brand has to do some kind of stuff to keep you on your toes. So these things, you know, Game of Thrones, everybody likes that show
1:49
You know, I stopped watching because of the, it was just too vulgar for me
1:53
All right? So I felt like this is, again, another CDO move, Consumer Direct Offense
1:59
and a brand want to keep you on the website. They want to keep you interested. So they're going to try to throw at you some kind of stuff like this
2:05
All right? So anyway, so for me to do the show this morning yesterday
2:10
what I did was I went and trying to inquire some more information. And the good thing, fortunately for us
2:17
foot locker was getting it, champs was getting it. So that gave me a little bit of help
2:22
So I went ahead and I went and I went ahead and I calculated the number of like champs
2:26
thought I were getting the shoe. then I did the same thing with like Foot Locker
2:30
and I came up with the numbers here. I show it to you on my ball
2:35
real quick. Let me stop sharing. I could show it to you. So if you are looking on my screen right now
2:41
you can see I did it and I mean, this is our cake, right? You see Champs
2:46
87 stars, Full Locker, 61 and I made my son-trip from my dick, spotting good
2:52
is getting to it too. Anyway, you don't need to see this anymore. I'm going to go back to the show. So I just wanted to show you the number of stores
2:59
So basically what I did was, I came over to some assumption, all right
3:04
and which I read off my board right now my website right now So in North America the only retailers that were getting the shoes were champs Foot Locker East Bay Online Dick Sporting Goods
3:17
And the only thing that I had to do was to come up with some assumptions. So I assume that Foot Locker Champs and East Bay, because they were the only one with
3:25
the most information, I would assume that they would receive about one-four of the entire inventory
3:31
Okay, and that's per one shoe, okay? So, and I'll assume that each physical store is getting about 12 pairs because these are limited, right
3:40
And the last assumption is to try and figure out the number of like physical location, not getting it
3:45
and then and do some multiplication there. So this is what I did, and this is the border that I was showing you earlier
3:51
So basically I went in and I did since 61 full lockers were confirmed that is 61 times 12
3:59
came up with 732, but champs it was 87 times 12. 8,44
4:05
And then I added this together, and I divided by three, to find an online allocation
4:09
And it was 592. And then the next thing I did was I added all this thing together
4:18
and to find the number of shoes for Foot Locker and Champs alone
4:23
That was 4,000 pairs. And then to find a grand total for North America
4:28
you used to 4,000 times 4,000, which is 16,000 because I assume that
4:33
Foot Lock and Champs and East Bay were getting about one for the entire inventory
4:37
Now the 16 pairs not for the total number of fair produce This is for each model So I thinking this is what I trying to say here like for this model here like let me go back to this like for this model
4:52
will be 16 for this one with 16, 16 this is what I'm assuming okay so take
4:57
everything I'll say with a grain of salt because everything was based on my
5:01
assumptions all right now how much are the shoe going for I don't think they
5:06
go for that much I went on eBay roof for yesterday and I did some
5:10
investigating here I didn't really do that yesterday on my on the website because I didn't have time
5:20
so let's see we can look together and see what's going on here
5:24
trying to see what's happening I review and we're going to see the sold items obviously
5:34
this model is going for 29-8-2-45 230 250 so it's pretty random
5:40
You know, you can go on Stock X and do your own homework. My job was just to try and find the number of shoes that were produced
5:47
Now, to get the shoe, you could just go on Foot Locker, Online, or Foot Locker
5:52
and then find this location that I get in and then get your shoe. Or Adidas, you can go in there and just hit this
5:58
whatever thing they said they're doing to get it. You know, you hit the button and then enter your name and all that kind of good stuff
6:05
All right? That's all I wanted to say this morning. It wasn't much of, you know, it wasn't. It wasn't much to talk about just this
6:12
All right? So I hope this helped you guys. So have a good day and then stay tuned for more stuff
