AIR JORDAN 12 RETRO - BLACK/WHITE/RED - 130690-001 - CONFIRMED 4/2012

[workaveli]

I know I'm probably late, but Finishline shipped my order today.

Well, at least created a UPS label for it. Didn't get an email about it, but I checked my account on Finishline and it has the tracking number.

If I am going to spend that much, I will wear Ferragamo, Gucci, and Bruno Magli exclusively. And when I need basketball shoes, I will but a pair of Adizero Rose 2.5's, I hear those are good.

I NOW HATE NIKE!!!! TO HECK WITH YOU!!!!

UNDER ARMOUR AND ADIDAS FOR LIFE!!!!

The crazy thing is the amount nike is charging retail for jordans these days plus tax, you're in close range of some lower end Guccis. Then when you get to reseller prices it's almost equal.

I have guccis and pradas and it still not even close. But you get to see what a true quality shoe is like with those

Just checked the order status for my two pairs from Finishline, they're shipped. =D

i got a tracking from finish line too

how does everyone that has a pair like them (in terms of comfort)? i tried them on around my house and found them to be very stiff with hard insoles, especially compared to my pair from 03. Looks wise i dont really have anything to complain about maybe once i break them in they'll feel more comfortable

They are fast but packaging sucks. Expect you box wrapped in a plastic garbage bag and taped up...beat to hell. They sent me a book I ordered that way too...legit though and you got your shoes. How much was it total in dollars?

Felt the same way. Hopefully after a few wears they'll break in.

You complain about the quality compared to previous releases but since when have you known a sequel to be better or even equal to the original??? SMH, LMAO! Y'all crazy as hell but y'all still cool I guess, its all part of this sneaker community.

tell 'em. Its like clock work with every damn release. You could come with a top 10 checklist of things that will be said here after every release.

And it tends to be the same ppl most of the time too



Godfather 1>>>>>>Godfather 2 IMo

Was lucky to get 2 pairs

 

[riddla713]

i ordered 3 pairs from snipes at like 2 am this morning, they had a fsr. i hit up a few of my homies and they all copped also. i have ordered from snipes multiple times and it does take about 3 weeks for delivery but they are 100% legit and they double box. i got 2 pairs coming in tomorrow so waiting a few weeks for the other 3 is no prob, i am just going to sit on them anyways.

Here is a pic of an official "Flu Game" 12...I threw some garbage up going too fast earlier. Yes, the authentic,leather retro dropped earlier....BUT the shoe known as "Flu Game" was released in November of 09 with special components to the shoe.
