By Marcus Vance
The distribution followed streetwear drop models rather than traditional supermarket merchandising routines. Stock released through a dedicated digital storefront alongside unannounced allocations at select urban flagship locations, most notably in Austin, San Antonio, and Houston.

| Phase 1: Online Drop | October 17, 2025 (Morning) | $25.00 MSRP | Sold out in under 45 minutes |
| Phase 2: Flagship Retail | October 17, 19, 2025 | $25.00 MSRP | Depleted over launch weekend |
| Secondary Resale Market | Late 2025, Present | $75.00, $140.00 (eBay / Mercari) | Active peer-to-peer listings |

Online inventory vanished almost instantly. Within two hours of the Friday morning release, resale listings appeared on eBay, Poshmark, and Depop marked up by as much as 400%.
