Can we (Niketalk) please somehow start a petition to bring back the iconic Nike Air logo and the extra accessories that came with the originals since they are charging this much??? Mods anybody?

Country of production has nothing to do with quality. If they made them in the US their labor cost would be so high that they'd charge 250-300 and stick us with crap quality

I agree with op. In 2012 I bought the chicago x, bred xiv, white/red xiv, and playoff xii. I have fond memories of the xiv and xii being great products made for balling. Not so with these retros. I sent them all back because the quality sucked big time.
When jb starts making shoes for players I'll be back. Until then the hypbeasts can keep jb in the black

@ you thinking we "won." We didn't win !$*!.
this!!! i dont see how we won, its not like jordan brand said "lets put out a rumor that we are increasing prices, and if they dont budge we will run with it....if they outrage we will say it wasnt true" YEAH RIGHT

Seriously, this was not a win for us. Aren't the Bred XIs still 185 not 165? Did I miss something?

Easy said as......Why give your dog kobe beef steak when you know for a fact he's going eat the dry dog food you put in his bowl?
LOL and I know that's what they are thinking.... Nike CEOs: Why give you guys quality when you are going to buy them anyway.
Plus its not like they are using them for performace purpose. They'll just buy them and wear once or twice and throw them in their closet or leave them DS for years upon years and have them just to say they have them.
Honestly, if you want quality shoes i think you should start to look outside the box other than nike brand because i feel there demand is too high now to keep up with putting out quality.

I would think jordan would want to use the best materials they could. Bc of what they are charging and also bc why wouldnt you want to put the best product out that you can? Jordan is the viewed as the top shelf of athletic gear. Its a shame they dont care more about the product they put out. Things like paint chipping shouldnt happen after only casual wearing. While most people who buy retros these days prob arent playin ball in em, they are made for sports, they shoudl be more durable
