Maybe get there an hour, hour and a half early.




Hmmm ask my local finishline last week while picking up a new insole...Clerk told me 20pairs, I flat out asked him do the employees get first dibs because 20 pairs is low and he smiled...So your number may be right but if my local finishline does it dirty that number may drop.

Well my FNL is big.
Here's a pic, only half the size though.

That's a bold statement but I know a few people that would agree with you...I must admit that they are growing on me...I like the simplicity of the shoe.

THEY LOOK AND FEEL GREAT TO ME, AND YES, I'M ALREADY LOCKED IN FOR A 10.5.

Memph, hows the quality? compared to the 2004s if you can compare them. Thanks

THEY FIT TRUE TO SIZE TO ME MAYBE A LITTLE BIG BUT NO MATTER IF A SHOE FITS BIG OR A LITTLE SMALL I ALWAYS GET A 10.5.

QUALITY SEEMS A BIT BETTER THAN THE CHERRY 12'S OF A COUPLE YEARS AGO. TAKE THAT AS YOU WILL. I THOUGHT THOSE WERE DECENT SO THESE ARE GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME.

Cool, thanks for your input. I'd have to agree, I dont ball in my jordans so the quality of the 2009's were good enough for me.

THIS. JB retros are now lifestyle shoes no longer true basketball shoes.

Also what is up with the crease under the metal lace holders. Seems like every pic/ review video shows this...
 
These compared to 04 make the 12 feel like a fake on the foot but like I said for those who never had the previous retro of these are gonna love em!
 
Hopefully these will be a lot easier to cop then the WC IVs here in LA...

Hopefully the people that were copping everything with their taxes ran out of Uncle Sam bucks lol
 
so... will these retro have heel and forefoot zoom instead of full length coz i'm planning to get 2 pairs one for balling.

This is great to hear!
I can't wait to get these.

Hopefully my regular size, 11, will be good cause I doubt they'll let you try on a pair on RD.
