I'm personally glad I copped mine and in my size.  I get that quality has dropped off, but it's crazy to hear people talk about the OG pairs as if Jordans used to be a luxury brand sneaker.  To each their own I guess though.

They seem just like the OGs from what I remember they are soft and feel good on feet. seem to run a tad big I wear a 9 and have a lil more room than usual.

Idk personally i feel like this release was a lot easier then others... Dont get me wrong a lot of people were trying, but the fact that i called champs at like 2:30am and they had a fsr seems to me that they have a lot more of these then people think.

I'm glad I copped it, but there was a little bit of a quality issue on my pair. There was a yellowish glue stain in the inner midsole of my left shoe. not gonna sweat about it though, I'm just glad I got a pair

Yeah, like I said I showed up 90 min early and they had already sold the entire 150 pairs and some squirrelly kid was yelling "Size 9 $350" in front of everyone who had just arrived. Unreal that this shoe blew away the Cement IV

 

[rareair45]

Sold a lot faster than expected.

Btw does ndc cancel multiple order? Got both email confirmation right away too...

 

[midnight hype]

 At first, I couldn't place an order on ndc,fl, eastbay because every websites i logged onto crashed. I went the extra mile and called to place an order , the line was busy. I went with my last option, camping and i wiped out unfortunately. Resellers are killing the sneaker game slowly. Hopefully there's a restock.

I like this shoe better than the cement 4s and I know alot of people down here felt the same..... The 4s were definitely hot but this release came in very close to the demand of the 4s.......

 

[The7onius]

I got a 7.5 coming from the NBA Store, need a 7 though. I don't usually buy other sizes but I thought these might run a little small.

 

[memphissfinest]

I am not surprised.  This is probably the best cw of the 12s...
If those "candy" 14s sold out, this for sure was gonna sell out....

No lines!? No get money boyz?

 

[LoX]

These are what I expected...OK, PAR, GOOD...They will be rocked soon.!

 

[dkeso611]

My pair has a blue stain on the midsole that refuses to come off. I wanna return them but I can't, i highly doubt there are anymore left. Just a general observation on my pair - i feel the tongue has good quality. The leather on one pair is shinier than the other, and the pebbled mudguard on one pair is more prominent than the other. I wonder of they just mix and match. This i can deal with, though i think i have an OCD with things being consistant, But those eyelets, gahh leee anne mae

I hope you're not serious with your "complaint"... I swear some of you guys are the biggest nit-pickers...

Times 2x

I don't own or like the cement 4's but that leather was a joke to me too. Sad.

Yeah these mugs look like straight plastic bananas. Not worth 160 fellas

 

[m bo]

The Champs by my spot got a six pack according to the manager.  Glad I was 4th in line.  I got right in before this huge MFr jumped the whole line only to find out they were sold out.  Sorry pal.

I had to settle for this size 9 and hope to trade it for the size 8.5 I really want.

i know what you mean
