Yesterday, Foot Locker turned the sneaker community upside down by announcing (probably accidentally) an official release date for the highly anticipated 'Red October' Nike Air Yeezy 2. Limited to online availability, the shoe will drop next Friday, December 27. This after most sneakerheads had given up on getting a pair following Kanye's move to adidas.
Of course, for such a big topic of discussion, Sole Collector readers had plenty to say. Today's Sole Reaction highlights some of our favorite comments from yesterday's post. Scroll through the replies and let us know who you find yourself agreeing with.

Entirely possible.
In a way, that last line sums up why Kanye says he's with adidas now. North gotta eat.

Have to respect the confidence.
And you can tell he's been through some rough releases with the Backpack Jimmy avatar.
Vindictive me says 'Air Sway.'
A HUGE grain of salt.
I mean, that's a pretty solid reason to want something you don't particularly like. We take that last gif back.
Genius creation or just the greatest hybrid of all-time?
