Nice pick up 160. Did you ever have the previous release of these? If so, how do these compare? I wonder how the foam material is on these, we all know foams are a ton softer now

Definitely hitting outlets. What's the big deal about this shoe anyway? Can't really floss them, I guess they're good for hooping???

Saw them at lunch. It's hard and they look great.
And all you people talking about outlets, these are going to be pretty limited.

Shout out to 160jordansdeep. I saw them today in NYC but the dude wanted $350 for them...... I couldn't do it. As much as I want these and as scared as I am with all this limited talk, I just can't see myself shelling out all that for these kicks. This is gonna be more difficult than I thought. A week from release date and I've only seen them in one store. Damn.....

i doubt they'll be limited. to be honest though the shoe is nice but as i felt back in the day, i feel the same way today and that is i just can't pay retail for these, even though i have the funds to do so.
bottom line for me is this, if their on swoosh i'll cop my pair, if their not then it's extra money in my pocket.
i am curious to see how these sell in stores though. i really don't think the $225 price tag is going to be the main issue for people, i think it's the amount of good stuff coming out in such a short period of time that is and alot of people have bought a few of these releases and plan on buying other things coming out as well. of course the people that have money to blow will cop regardless but im very curious to see how these sell.
in regards to them being limited, places where foams sell these will be able to be had with no problem ny and the dmv area will get a good amount of pairs because people will buy them regularly.
spots where im at in cali probably will only get these in limited numbers which is understandable to me because i don't see them selling as well out here so no need to have a ton of pairs at each store.
electric blue foams in july $190 shoe
emerald griffeys in early august $140 shoe
jordan v blk august $150 shoe
pine foamposites early september $190 shoe
the duncans are in the middle of all these and after the duncans are these
jordan iii black cement october $150 shoe
jordan xi concord december $180 shoe

^ I'm with you on that. They will be on swoosh, but if it's full price, that's a no go for me. I'm glad I have my OG's still in good shape, I just want these to have a fresh pair.

They will NOT be discounted on swoosh. Check the release date part with swoosh discount, still listed on $225

When I say limited, not limited like South Beach's, but limited enough these aren't going to outlets in great numbers like some of you expect to get them for $99. Maybe B grades.
Places that got the pine greens aren't necessarily getting these, and pine greens weren't a general release like the cough drops.
Sitting in the store for a week is a lot different than sitting in the store for four months like some of you expect.

there a little softer then the mid 2000's releases but not by much
i dont know how it is around the rest of the country and to tell you the truth i dont care
but in nyc these will move quickly for the simple fact stores did not get no more them 10 to 12 pairs at a time

the nyc weather as you know is too crappy
i am guessing there true to size i would go with the 9.5 if i was you
foams are not the shoe to go a size up or down on
