Air Jordan XI CONCORD AFTERMATH thread. STILL NO BUYING/SELLING/TRADING!

[mazzo1]

That's crazy! I always inspect my pairs like crazy when I first get my shoes

 

[beansietime]

Obviously from now on I will too, but I think I would have been screwed even if I discovered this problem the day I got the box from UPS.

 

[thejrob]

Damn son those shoes aren't even close. Kinda shocked you never noticed that

 

[cloudypokerchips]

How could you not notice a full 2 sizes bigger when you first got them??? When I get my new J's the first thing I do is inspect them up and down, and to not notice one was 2 SIZES BIGGER boggles the mind.

 

[killa floyd]

crazy.

 

[marcmac360]

At first I thought these were okay in terms of comfort but Ive been wearing my 2000 jams and my god the 11 concords feel way uncomfortable compared to the jams. Its like the zoom is non existent. In the jams its like walking on pillows.

 

[vinnyfitteds]

If you bought two pairs and sold one, wouldn't you thoroughly inspect both pairs to make sure you're not stuck with the defective ones? I find it very hard to believe that you wouldn't notice the different size tags on the shoe.. 

 

[futuredhughes]

That is ridiculous!

It's not even a MINOR difference. Crazy you didn't catch it before though.

 

[beansietime]

Nah, I only closely inspected the pair I sold because I didn't want to screw the person I was selling to. These haven't even left their box since the end of December up until yesterday. Nike told me I could return them for a refund or keep them and get 20% off my next purchase. I'm just going to keep them, but I doubt I'll wear them again.

Notice in the pics how the heel of both shoes is on the same line on the tile floor, but the toe of one is far behind the toe of the other. Now I wish I sold this pair instead of my other pair. Complete embarassment for Nike. I will certainly be passing on this year's AJXI release.



If you are going to buy XI's avoid the 2011 release!!

Oh my Gawd!! LOL... It looks like a size and a half smaller. QA at the factory must of been high on opium that day. Totally unacceptable! 
  

Damn bruh

I would be pissed.
  

 

[LoX]

WOW ^^^...I've inspected mine quite often from pictures in here...its a hit or miss...

 

[cleaverkicks]

That is one of the worst "flaws" that I've seen from the Concord release, I don't even think "flaw" is the right word...

 

[jamazing]

lol dude how did you not see that? They look NOTICEABLY BIGGER.

 

[beh235]

Damn Beansie, just read it and that sucks. It's things like this that as a consumer you have to put your foot down and say no more. We have to get out of that "gotta have it" nostalgia mode. This cannot be accepted as a business practice standard from Nike. If we accept this, what's next? And prices go up at the same time?

Do these fit similar to cool greys or would I be better off sizing up?

Mine fit very similar to the cool greys. I would stay true to size.

For me, I went a half size up. But idk if it's just how my feet are.

 

[cashm0neyand1]

True to size for me

Average price on ebay is at around $350. I just recently got my first pair, and paid for $270 them.

 

[bignosemark]

wow, wat a steal

 

[just blaze]

Anyone have an idea of how much I'd be looking to drop for some 2000 DS concords?

 

[danegill]

Was able to cop (1) pair after waiting 17 hours

 

[LoX]

I have a deadstock sz11 pair I'm really hesitant to sell... I just have a feeling "concords" will be held out for a long time before they re-release and if these are truly one of the last ones I really don't want to sell them...just IMO

From what I've been seeing online, they don't run much more than the 2011 for some reason.  I've seen them for $380-420 but I've also seen ridiculously high prices as well.  I would look around a bit before dropping serious money on them.
