nice pic, it makes them look just like they do on every other pic taken.....actually your pic does nothing to show off the shoe, you just took a pic to prove you got several pairs . #hypebeastmoves

Good point ^. We also got to factor n that a lot of people don't wear their sneakers anymore. They like to keep them in boxes and stock them to look at or whatever.

I gotta say I'm happy there was little to no hype on these. Will be saving these for the summer. Walked into Nike Town LA a little after noon, used a gift card and cash on the rest. Easy View media item 755115

Here's a pic of the lining everybody's been talking about. It's a little shiny when light hits it, not reflective like 3M though, hard to tell in the pic.

Dope, that'll pop especially during the spring/summer with some shorts. Personally can't pull off the all blue, my fits and kicks are mostly the same basic black and white. Congrats to those that copped and with ease as it should be.

I thought the lining would have a different feeling than what is has. Kind of unexpected, slickish, shiny type.

So I got a funny story. I just called Champs in Alpharetta and they had one 10.5 left. Since I'm in Florida, I had my girl go up there to get them. She said the employee had just put it on display because he decided he wasn't going to buy them after having them on hold for him. She asked him why he decided not to buy them, his response was, "Well I'm a true sneakerhead, and these hold no value to me. I don't buy shoes that are still on the shelves. I mean, I get an employee discount, and I wouldn't make much money reselling these."
Man what?!?!
If I was there to pick them up ,I would've laughed in his face and told him, "If there were ever a true definition of the word hypebeast, you would be it.." My girl said he's nice for letting you buy his shoes... "Um no baby, they are not his shoes and he is not nice. He's a cornball. If you base your purchases off what the next man or woman thinks, or base it off of how much you can sell for.... I feel bad for you."
BTW, I hate the both terms, hypebeast and sneakerhead.

There is no "claim"...it's a fact that the quantities are much more limited than most GR's...
Again...like it has been said before...the quickness with which Jordan Retro's sell out is much more about DEMAND and not SUPPLY...
