THIS WILL NOT HAPPEN FOR AT LEAST 6-10 YEARS....

NO HATE, BUT YOU GONNA PASS ON A SHOE BECAUSE OF WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN 10 YEARS FROM NOW? YOU SHOULD OF ALREADY GOTTEN YOUR ENJOYMENT AND MONEY'S WORTH LONG BEFORE IT HAPPENS. 

A PAIR OF PLAYOFF 12'S AND OBSIDIAN 12'S FOR ME. NOT A SINGLE DAMN GIVEN.
  

I feel you bro but i just can't buy shoes that have a all white sole, too much maintenance , and im not a big fan of 12s. But good luck next saturday and watch out for the little wankster hypebeast kids in line

12s clean up so easily though, easiest of any shoe IMO and the yellowing can be taken care of in a few hours with retrobrite... problem solved now go cop!

I think I would have given you the same look, but what you do with your money is up to you.

 

[xdesmond]

I wanna see some on foot pics before I make my final decision.

 

[marley]

Whats everyone thinking on sizing with these? Are most gonna order what they have in recent retro XIs? I was 11.5 in my 00-01 XIs but have been a sz 12 in Jams, CG and Concords.

I'm going to go half size up with these.The patent lows that released a few years back ran that way so that's what I'm going with on these.

and NOT LIMITED!

Do you think they may be LIMITED being that JB never released this CW?

If they are and I can't get a pair or two, then I will have to use my Concords as trade bait. I'd trade for these in a heart beat

I'll trade with you!

Thank you. Nobody seems to understand this in the sneaker game... I mean, I'm not psyched on paying more money, but dudes saying "the shoe hasn't changed, why has the price?" just don't understand basic economic principles.

Yeah, inflation kills man.
But it's not outrageous for today's standards.

At people trying to justify a 50% increase do to inflation. Outside of maybe foood, real estate, and gas there's no other market in which it's cost doubled by more than 50% as a result of inflation within the last ten years. If so, a lot of bubbles will be bursting really soon.

[retro707]
