You are talking about paying resell now.Not sure what you're referring to.
What I said a while back is that I'm done paying resell for any old shoe.You are talking about paying resell now.
I remembered when and where it was said. It was the brand president or some top exec, and it was a quote in Nike's info about the playoff 12s (and perhaps other upcoming releases) when it officially announced they were on the release schedule. So it wasn't even that long ago, and already JB has defied that statement with its ongoing release scheduleLike I said I don't necessarily believe the 'plan' or whatever they had. It was probably just something they thought sounded good at the time lol.
I'm not worried about the big shoes. The 2s were never very popular and I'm sure that's why they waited this long. The 12s are definitely a mystery. That is a popular shoe.
We can easily make a whole book of all of the lies Jordan Brand and Nike has said over the past 20 years. I don't know if they're intentionally lying or just freestyling in every interview.I remembered when and where it was said.

I years ago stopped putting much stock in what anyone over there says about the brand's mid- to longterm plans and philosophies. Gentry said a bunch of wild ish about what would and wouldn't be done, and it all only lasted a couple few years. I don't know how frequently JB has staff turnover, but it kinda seems like a lot, and every new person who comes in with decision-making power throws the previous plan and logic right out the window.

I even think I remember Gentry himself saying the 2s would never come back because the mold was lost.
These look like the '16s but with no laces. MehBel-Air-Inspired Air Jordan 5 OG "Black Metallic" Limited To Three Pairs

You know these are coming back sooner than later. We’re creeping up on seven years, unbelievably.
It was 2016 dawg, not ‘18.Hope so, I will be doubling up
Still tight i missed 2018

Here in LA, I had several chances to buy them at retail in person in stores, and despite having OGs and previous retros and it being one of my favorites, I just couldn’t do it. Hated the toes and the tongue. Hoping the next version’s improved. Almost has to be, the way JB is doing things lately.
need grapes firstYou know these are coming back sooner than later. We’re creeping up on seven years, unbelievably.
You should be banned for that statementFire red with black tongue first plz.
This is factual thoughWhy? We haven’t gotten Black tongue retros proper yet. Black Metallic has been retrod twice with NA and more recently at that.
And,
Black tongue > Grapes. Yep, I said it. And meant it.
I thought the same in hindsight about the fresh prince grapes….there’s a dude on YouTube with a video on how to punch laces holes with before and afters. Cuz you know when the grapes release it’ll be sumthin other than true NA OG.….smh (although I’ll lose it if they release em true OG shape and NAbaby)need grapes first
they've been 10 years unless you count the lace less Fresh Prince pair 5 years ago...I passed on those since they didn't have laces when in hindsight I should have grabbed them and use a leather punch
need to break these and fire red V's when the weather is better
This is my worst nightmare.
