Pharrell's latest Adidas NMD HU release was a hot commodity stateside this past weekend, but it also led to some angry sneakerhead scuffles overseas in Singapore as well.

The fight broke out during a lineup at the Pacific Plaza Adidas Originals store. The brief 10-second look at what went down outside the store shows kids draped in various expensive streetwear pieces shoving each other and shouting. Towards the end of the video, a security guard steps in to defuse the situation.

Fights at limited sneaker releases, unfortunately, are nothing new. This is not even the first time Pharrell's sneakers were the cause of the hysteria. Just last year, a brawl broke out in New York City ahead of the release of another pair of his highly-coveted NMD HUs.

There isn't much indication of what exactly started the issue, but thankfully nobody was hurt in the incident.
