You're right. This release will be a giant pain in the neck. Do not sleep on these if you want them, it's always worth a shot online on release day or raffles if you're on the lookout for when they're held. But I have no inside info or hook-ups or anything, so I'm skeptical of my chances. The thirst for these is R-E-A-L.
They were, I was trying SNKRS for the free shipping but the app was responding with error messages. I secured off of footlocker.com
They changed it to FCFS, around my way @bballermarkie. That means it's a wrap... Plus, store managers & employees are super sheisty here in Cincy. If you don't have a connect, it's over.
The 3M 5 was ruined by the Jumpman. The NA only looks good on the 3M and BM, and Grapes. BM looks fresh either way, so I see your point. Black tongue legit looks weird every time I see it with NA.
all of the 6s except for the black infrareds. At least the infrareds, carmines, and sport blues kept their general aesthetic with the jumpman. Blk Infrareds lost the durabuck and leather/durabuck heel which completely changed the look so at least a nike air would help
What does the Jumpman have to do with the materials on the shoe?
my comment was speaking to aesthetics, the whole og look of the black infras has been changed so much compared to the other og 6s that the nike air would have at least done the shoe some justice.
I believe them using better materials would make the shoe better, not just adding Nike Air.
This^ I felt like this about all the past price hikes... Another one of those and I'm out the JB side of sneaker collecting..I think if we got both, everyone would be satisfied @AirSakuragi & @tonytobacco. We should get better materials, Nike Air, OG heights, shapes & superb comfort... Payin' $220+ for tech that's almost 30 years old. It's a shame we can't even actually get that, when you think about it. That next price increase is goin' to be cringe worthy, if don't at least go back to the OG shapes... And use better materials overall, also. Reps to you both though.
