I'm not comparing the shoes, I'm comparing the exclusivity. JB could drop the Sugar Rays and I guarantee you that will hype up all 8s released that year. People who miss on the Sugar Rays will feel obligated to get a pair of 8s and most likely they'll all flock towards OG color ways, even if it has retroed in the past 3 years.You're comparing pleather to durabuck though...
The 8 model isn't as popular as other Jordan's for some reasonso time will tell how well they sell in the year of the 8s. I personally love them and have all the black durabuck collection (Chromes, Aquas, Suns, Playoffs) except the Sugar Rays but people want a mortgage payment for those
Those PE's 8s were all exclusive to HOH and before those JB never released PE's retros with the players name on it. The record breaker 13's were limited to Boston and Miami if I remember correctly.
At myself for not lining up for those 13s back then but man I remember seeing about 15 deep in the hood at 6:30pm the night before releasethis was before the concord madness...
Hell just look at the Supreme Foams release... imagine Ray breaking the record today and JB releasing those
I remember being able to get a pair of those 13s for $270 back then but I don't like 13s like that nor was I willing to spend $270 lol
And the Chromes is another color way they could bring out and have people going crazy, and they'll create some crazy color ways as usual and maybe hit the jackpot with one or two. After all it is a Jordan shoe so selling out will not be a problem, that is if the hype keeps on until 2016.
