My wife bought some for me and they were dumped out of the basket while she was mid payment and have now sold out. Well played, the internet. Ah well, had some for about 11 seconds, I guess. :(
I feel like it's going to be an insane struggle to get a hold of these.
They're all gone. The proper Ripley ones already popping up on ebay for £500+. What a world.
Little just gone on sale on the UK website and sold out.
And sold out everywhere from the looks of it. Wonderful.
Now going for over double the price everywhere on eBay. >:(
I knew these would go immediately and be up on ebay in a matter of seconds. >:(
So the last place I could find just sold out my size literally as I was paying for them. They went out of stock as I processing the order. They still have one size left. https://www.thegoodwillout.com/reebok-alien-stomper-mid-excellent-red-snowy-grey-grey-porcelain-v66526
Wonder how many they made? So annoying that they all seemed to be scalped so quickly.
I read somewhere it was 426 pairs.
Maybe they just wanted to keep it limited for sales. No point making lots of pairs of different size trainers if they aren't going to sell them all. Then, they'd just be stuck with unused stock.
You probably should have contacted your local shops to see if they have them. Or is it purely online? I can't seem to find the listing for them on the official Reebok website.
Edit: They sold out in 38 minutes according to IGN: http://uk.ign.com/articles/2016/04/26/aliens-shoes-sell-out-in-under-40-minutes
No women's sizes...scalpers having a field day. Way to go Reebok.
Yup. Not a very well handled release, I don't think. I see nothing but unhappy people.

Same here. Yet to see hardly anyone happy they got a pair for themselves but a few saying they managed to get them and then whacked them straight on ebay.
About the only time Reebok have been in demand for about 10 years!
Hopefully that demand will cause them to re-issue these in a not so limited supply. I get the gimmick of 426 pairs but seriously...?
F*ck reebok and scalpers. Some are sold for $4000 on eBay. No matter how good they look no one with right mind would pay that insane amount.

what a botched release
I had heard that these shoes were released only in Men's sizes. Is this true?

So I've read too. That didn't go down well.
Like Hicks, I missed out on getting a pair of these.
If you read more recent tweets after that one that alienscollection.com quoted, its over. Reedok sucks.
Hi,
I have a pair of the reebok Alien Stomper Hi's in a size 10 for sale. Please PM if interested.
thank you
Pretty salty and Reebok for not having more... I know at least half of those sold to scalpers >:(
Also salty cuz they only came in men's sizes for the Ripley version. Not that I couldn't have figured it out.
Yeah they are f**k-ugly, but i wanted them :c :c :c
The hype for these things was real, but honestly were people going to wear these? Perhaps as part of a cosplay but I would think it would be more of a shelf worthy item. I suppose for next year they'll do another run?
Btw, don't feed the scalpers. Let them sit on their crap for 9 months and they'll be forced to lower their prices to even hope to attract a buyer.
I certainly would have worn mine!

HAHAA.
You don't know me! I would have hardcore sported them like a champ! ;D ;D ;D
What a b0rked up piece of marketing.
I can see that due to demand Reebok will rebound with full mass market editions in all sizes. Including sizes women cosplayers can purchase.
Reebok got the message. Just wait a few months. You'll get yer women's sized shoes it's just a matter of time. Be patient and don't feed scalper trolls.
-Windebieste.
Considering they even made a statement (before Alien Day) that it was one of their most highly demanded styles... Logic?
Just spotted at the licensing show in Vegas:

Does that indicate a wider spread release, do you think?
That's what I inferred. Would quite like to be right.
I'd laugh at those scalpers but at the same time imagine people who bought them for atrocious prices.

Me too. I would quite love a pair! ;D

I strongly believe it does, but can't say for 100 percent certainty...
Let's hope so. I would like to own a pair for sure.

Hopefully that's the case. I was really disappointed to miss out on a pair on Alien Day. I will be really happy to finally grab a pair! ;D
Here ya go, then. All your dreams fulfilled.

Not quite what I had in mind. :laugh: I don't think I'd be particularly excited to have those on my feet.

I found this way funnier then it should have been XD
You just dig the name caught on... :P
Can't find the original post on social media but I saw John `Finn' Boyega wearing those Reeboks.
Nice crossover. Attack the Block vs Aliens vs Star Wars

Eh, it's nice, but it's gotta be red.

My thoughts too. I'd be more interested in the reds. Cool that these are an option though. :)
I am actually currently selling a new never worn Reebok alien stomper size 6 for $400 with free shipping. Looking at the prices on Ebay, this seems to be one of the lowest prices for the High version. I only took them out of the box to take pictures. The url below is for the ebay link of the item. If you don't want to use eBay, please contact me.
Also, if you live outside of the USA, I am more than happy to work around the customs fee (list it as a gift) with you. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.
UPDATE: I have reduced the price to $395. That is one of the lowest prices for the the Official Reebok Alien Stomper Hi. These shoes are size 6.
Thanks for your time
