Best and Worst Quality retro in recent years n why?

[dankenstien88]

the OG Altitudes imo were poor quality, worn maybe 20 times, and they look terrible

I disagree, I find the 05 altitudes to be great. In addition to them being all black so they dont show dirt, the leather is really and I emphasize REALLY good quality. The only complaint anyone could have is creasing, but all shoes crease especially XIIIs. The leather on these is much thicker than most recent retros and even with creases the shoes look great and pull constant compliments.
 
Along with the altitudes I think the recent V,VI, XII,XVI have been of superior quality, while the recent IV,IX,XI have been horrible. JMO

They better re-release the military 4s with better quality or else.

Worst = CDP XI

*fixed*

I am just waiting to see what the Cement III's and the Playoff XIII's look like in person.

V's in general are pretty bad at creasing up front. Look at CDP. I had a pair and starting creasing after second pair on the toe and upper.

My favorites are the older models and don't like how they
changed the materials and the shape of the 4s
