Just wear the kicks man, and try and wipe them down after each wear if you can.
Nuff said.

This. What happens to the soles is the white paint comes off and it looks beige-yellowish. Unless someone's staring at the bottom of your shoes they're not going to notice, because it doesn't affect the sides or any part that someone would usually see. 

Like everybody said, if you're really worried about preserving it then just wipe them down after each wear.  I'd be more worried about how bad XIIs crease if you're that deep into making sure your shoes always look completely DS.

wore my 04's into the ground that the whole outter sole looks beige yellow.  Sad looking at em actually.

Wish I would have been able to try these on before buying them. Wore them one time and thinking about getting rid of them. They feel to damn big

I went to footaction today cause i was told there was going to be one thursday. i tried to get the manager to say something but it was like pulling teeth. the conversation ended with me asking him "so you're trying to tell me if i came by thursday and stood outside at 8 am i wouldnt walk out with a box that happened tp contain playoffs ?" he told me and said do what you want...go a similar response for the cement 4s and stood outside that thursday at 8 am...

....LINE AT 11:45
So0o0o im not guarenteeing theres gonna be a restock but considering the evidence...

  

 

[putting in work]

I'm starting to get a little worried.

I sent a cancellation E-mail to offspring late last night and they still haven't replied saying my order was cancelled.

I hope they don't send me that pair because I'm not feed the reseller market by overpaying.

 

[misscutiee]

Can somebody tell me how these Jordans 12 fit? I usually wear size 8 in Jordans but the "Flu Games" I had to go one size up. Do these fit the same, or are these bigger?

 

[seanj4523]

Just heard on the news that two guys down here in htown broke iinto gulfgate mall last night to get their hands on the playoff 12s. Somebody should have told those idiots that they had already sold out of them or they should have called the mall first to make
sure they had the shoes in stock before an attempted robbery to leave out empty handed and in handcuffs.

How is paying to offspring "feeding the reseller"? They are a retail store and that is their retail price...just so happens the exchange rate plus shipping costs you more

Take notes magic, maybe someday you would be liked as well.

so you play basketball in your 04s? let me clap my hands for you! and to call out collectors for that? so you've been playing basketball since 04 you must be hella old cuz i dont remember playing basketball until around 89 so you got me beat and as far as playing in 04s you make it sound like you're playing in holy grails that are unreachable by man, get over yourself and we ALL KNOW that 04s are better than the 2012s good call captain obvious.

Not to mention that the OGs were definetly Not comfortable in terms of sole asThe midsole was very stiff (almost did not bendWhen they were brandnew). The 04 retrosUsed a much softer midsole which also madeThe shoe more flexible and comfy but lostDurability.

Rihanna sporting these...

Dog, how many Nike sneakers have a white midsole? 
You do what you can to keep them clean. You wear them in good health. 

Like all things in life, over time, they will not look as good as they did once.

My guess is they got BLITZED last night by people in this thread. 
I placed an order for a client to try to get him a pair. Sent the VAT email. No response. 

Wondering if all the orders they received will even go through. Cats in here ordering 3-4 pairs at a time on some !%*%%!%@. 

 

[just blaze]

seriously thinking about letting my other pair go and picking up a ds pair of 04's someone locally has. silver jordan tab though has sliiight yellowing. would yall do it?
