noting is going to change though unless people actually STOP copping. and we know every single shoe is going to sell out this year pretty much in the same usual amount of time. it's ignorant to complain about it but still say "oh I'm getting this and this this year then im done". people gotta stop doing what nike expects if they want any real changes.
This thread just got me feeling some type of way...they are charging damn near 2 bills after taxes for some shoes. Most of you guys have jobs but a lot of kids (middle schoolers and highschoolers) who aren't employed, and lets be honest that makes up I bet at least 50% of the buyers are begging their parent(s) to purchase these shoes. These kids just don't understand the value of money and how hard some of their rents work but they get them anyways out of love. When I was growing up I'd be slapped for asking for some 200 dollar shoes from my rents. For the price they are charging, you'd expect JB to own up to what they said about being true to the OG molds, quality and leather but in reality it's just a gimmick, publicity stunt, marketing ploy whatever you want to call it...the worst part is that the inconsistencies are glaringly obvious and almost looks like no effort was made and I think that's what is making alot of sneakerheads upset. This is a multibillion dollar company you think they don't have the technology to make an identical replica of originals? It's a disgrace and a slap in the face to us sneakerheads too, nobody likes being lied to and I promise the rate they are going it's not sustainable.
