Gentry isn't working on this side of the house anymore. Gentry is on the international side now.
Ya'll gotta find someone else to blame.

well it has to do with the way the economy is not everyone can drop 150 + tax n 310 +tax specially wen unreleased originals are coming bak to being retro forthe first time also the 11s maybe youngtas had to buy the dub zeros instead since they released the same day as the pack

Blame the man himself. MJ. He gives the thumbs up to the garbage they put out. The minions simply follow. Fusions to me are trash. To me, they're a mockeryof the signature Jordan shoe, and disrespect the lineage. However, they sell. Especially within the Hispanic community. Here in NYC, they seriously hold themin high regards. To each his/their own.

i mean besides the whole recession hype...i wouldn't exactly say JB is dead...its just evolving...i mean numbered jordans are probably siting on theshelves but for the most part, the fusions are flying off. I realized (and i'm sure everyone else has) that the older dudes on here talk about how the shoegame isn't like the way it used to be and i'm like...why WOULD it be the same...a good amount of us have lived through the jordan and post jordan erabut its 2009 now (reaching 2010). and dont forget that jordans are still part of fashion and as we all know [fashion] trends come and go but in this case, theychange.

Some of ya'll sound silly when you say blame MJ...
I think MJs career was Basketball Player... Not Shoe Designer or Product Line Manager.
Hence... if he can't pick Good Draft Picks.. why would you think he can ok all the shoes that come out.
By the way... just FYI.. MJ does not ok every shoe that comes out. He just see's them. He is apart of the Signature Model...
Do you all know how much he'd have to ok if he really did that. Dont always believe the company line.

that's why I like OGs and retros, they stay true to the Jordan classics.

Yeah I agree, they're trying to bring out all the classic's to try and bring theirselve's back. But in all reality they're in too much of ahole to try and recover now.

I say JB gets back to making shoes better quality, drop the price of each shoe to $115, new models in the sig line can be $149 and put it at normalavailability and bet they will make as much as they did with the way they are currently running the business.
