REEBOK DROPS THE BALL


After almost atleast 6 months of excited anticipation, Reebok finally re-released their "BUG STOMPERS" shoes, a recreation of the shoes designed for and worn by Sigourney Weaver in 'ALIENS'. 

But fans were quickly disappointed this morning when the shoes sold out in 38 minutes. How could they sell out so quickly? Well, they only made 426 world wide (426 for 'Alien Day', which is on 4/26), and only 33 of those were apparently for the U.S.

Seriously, Reebok?

And were mass reports of people complaining once the item was in their cart, the website wouldn't allow them proceed to checkout and/or the item disappearing from their cart during checkout.

Also, the shoes were only available in MENS sizes 8-12.
That's right, shoes worn by a woman were recreated in only Men's sizes.

Super Lame, Reebok.

But hey, if you want to buy the shoes, they're going for about $4,000 on eBay.
