It's not about the length, it's about the width...pause...
The top of the tongue on the V's is NOT suppose to look rectangular...The top of the tongue is suppose to be the wider and then reduce in size...Almost "Y" shaped if that makes any sense...A rhombus maybe...?? I don't know... but this is a mockery...

But I'm not feeling the suede on this shoe (that makes up more than 90% of the shoe). I'll stick with my 2000's and my 2007's.
It's already been reported (word to April O'Neal) that these will be durabuck.

Durabuck please. JB is playing games as we all know. Very soon we will have to accept just like no "nike air," (with the exception to banned 1's , which was really supposed to be scrapped due to the conflict of nike air) there will be no durabuck on certain shoes as well. Now, what's next, patent leather instead of regular leather??? Come on JB.Originally Posted by michael0360

I hope you are just joking, because if that is durabuck, then shame on JB (still not copping).Originally Posted by BinYe

I missed out back in '07 on the Fire Red's and these, but IMO I don't think this should be a difficult pickup. Some sites charging over $200 for these SMH.

Copped 2 pairs last time they released rocked one to death and broke the other one out last november, my midsole is already cracking on those after a few wears. I did not wanna copp these since they were suede and i've had bad experiences with my black and royal 18's and cdp 14's, but I peeped these on youtube and they look too clean imma just have to watch out with the suede def gonna scoop up a pair or 2.

I work at kids footlocker and that material from the kids black varsity red 6s, alarming red 5s, freshwater Griffey 2 is NOT durabuck. I'm not even sure what I would call it, but it is definitely not the same material as my 07 metallics, aqua 8s, and cdp 4s. In all honesty that material still looks better than the nubuck on these though. I have no idea if it's a lower or higher quality, but it just looks better imo.

these don't look good. i don't know, they look really plain for some reason. i can remember when the originals first released and they were neck breakers. these retros just seem bland. easy pass.
