I disagree. although I wish JB used durabuck on them, they were a solid retro IMO

i usually don't complain about quality ever, but that release wasn't the best imo. hope they bring the durabuck back though & get the infrared paint right. the 2000 version is 100x brighter

this. now the flugames sucked. it went from leather too suede. It was classie and now ashy.

I want JB to bring back the dark charcoals like the way they did it in 2002. Those look 100x cleaner than the 2012 version imo

I liked them too. Copped two pairs. They have held up well. Only problem is that the soles yellow quickly. I would like to see some black infrareds with durabuck instead of that ashy suede tho.

how so

 

[bence23]

is this the 8s thread or the quality thread?

 

[seandon23]

how so

The 2002 had the nubuck and suede paneling on the shoe. The 2012 had a full nubuck upper that made them look cheap imo

: retirement never looked so sexy

def coping a second pair

 

[Magic33]

^this .... please ....

Low VIII's are awful and are the worst low they've ever done probably beside the XV. You totally eliminate some of the best parts of the sneaker and ruin the shape.

I always thought the V, VI, XII, IX and VIII lows were just a money grab. Especially when they had nerve to put some out in OG colors. The other ones were ehhhh, but the VIII's were just plain awful :x Can you even pop the straps in those? That's why I don't get too upset at what JB does now, because JB did some ******** before that people love, that weren't really old enough then. I remember when the low VI's came out, I love VI's and I kept trying to convince myself, if I get them and just wear jeans with them I'll be good. Nobody will know these are wack. I was pissed they didn't just have them as mids in black and silver.

 

[jchambers]

I'm sorry my pics suck. I'm a little tipsy and it's too dark to not use flash

Those look like they have a grey tint to them.

 

[fresh out dabox]

Just looking at these new pics that surfaced make me forget about the phoneix suns VIII's.  Where the grey tint at?
