I purchased three colorways in the past that are deadstock but not crazy about how they fit on my feet so I'll pass.

I am surprised that the "Last shot" didn't sell as well as I thought it would. The significant meaning behind the shoe, is not enough for people to go camp out for them. I guess people are still going after the look of the shoes afterall, rather than what the shoe symbolizes.
I do have to say, the look of the XIVs wasn't as appealing as it was for the XIII. Partly, I am biased, I love the look of the XIII, and look of the XIV just didn't live up to the expectation.

I think a lot of it had to do with the suede they used. The White/Red and Black/UNC Blue XIV's sold better than these, if I recall correctly...

i played in my 05s a few times, but they still look pretty good. i hate how JB is retroing things so early now...and heres the thing on these, as far as collectors go there is little demand on these, but as the average jordan consumer goes, there is probably a lot of demand, thus why they did it. But even with that, 5 years is way too soon, they should wait at least 8 or 10 to maximize demand as they did with cool greys and jams. yet as quality continues to suffer the old cws dont matter since the older models had that better quality. so the newer retros are just the cw and are not the same shoe....JB will never raise quality as long as people still buy Js, and since the majority of people who buy js dont care or notice the decline this will just escalate to a point where there will be few Jordan collectors, which is really depressing.
I'LL TAKE MY 05s ANY DAY OVER THIS VERSION

Jordan Brand needs to stop faking and release the Indiglos. I rushed out and bought these on the release date in '05 (December 23rd, I believe) and was pissed when I saw them for 100 a few months later.

If you can wait about 6 more months, they are coming.
