TBH in regards to these running a size to big I am a 10.5 TTS and when I got these on RD I had no clue they ran big. Truth be told they fit perfectly they weren't big at all. They def. weren't big enough for me to consider going down a size.
However it seems that for practically everyone else they ran a .5 size big so I must've lucked out.

I ge paid this week so I should be set to cop them off that restock, hopefully. Remembering when I tried on te 10.5, I don't think it was so big that I had to go down to a 10. I'll be hoping to cop a 10.5, 11 being my TTS

Isn't this pinkish/peach infrared the original color from the original release?

I was disappointed. Packed up three pairs on release day and the leathers cheap. One pair had a chunk out of them another had cracks in the leather.

Yeah my bro bought a pair and flipped them right away because he didn't like the quality. Told me to do the same. I didn't listen.

You're not left with much of a choice with these though, it's this release, trying to find a split pack from 2010 or going with Varsity Red, or buying a pair of probably unwearable OGs from 1991.

They're not bad, I actually like them. They may not be the best materials.. But same stuff they used on the white based 5s last year. And the infrared used is nice in person, closest to OG than any previous retro.

Haven't wore em yet, but I wouldn't think creasing would be too bad on the toebox. I've wore my FR5s several times and it only has minor creasing on the sides of the toebox.. Hardly noticeable. I think the main complaint from these was the creasing by the ankle padding since the material is softer there.
On a side note: my gals GS pair is nice! Buttery feel and doesn't have that gloss finish like the mens..

The quality isn't bad at all on these. I'm a big guy, I've got 5+ wears on mine and they still look fine, the creasing on the heel isn't on mine because I loosen the strings before I put them on to help my foot slip in easily, a plastic shoe horn will help those people putting a slightly smaller fitting shoe. But as far as the quality man, this is one shoe of mine that will look almost identical after the 20th wear.

Hopefully Blacks are the Black Friday release.. Should be plenty if so. Them Oreos supposedly sold 500k+, gonna need numbers like that to feed the masses.

I would double up on the finishline restock but $170 is simply too damn much man
. slowly but surely losing my enthusiasm with this brand.

They are getting to that price point where I'll have to hang it up. Already started buying more selectively.. 185 after tax.

That's why I don't really buy Jordans much anymore except for the yearly XIs.
