Nike shocked the world this morning with an unexpected release of the 'Red October' Air Yeezy II.

Once thought to be scrapped and never releasing, earlier this morning, @NikeStore tweeted out a purchase link for Kanye West's final signature shoe with the Swoosh. Released in a full size run, the shoe sold out in just minutes, with most ending up getting either the good ol' "In-Line" queue, or just a completely sold out message.

Most of the community was in shock to say the least, as evidenced by the multiple tweets below. Were you able to get your hands on a pair? What are your thoughts on one of the most unexpected releases we've seen in quite some time from Nike?
