This was just the only one that I felt like copying. The Pippen I's were MOST ASSUREDLY $160.00 when they originally came out. If they haven't changed anything cushioning-wise, then there are going to be a LOT of complaints about how heavy, clunky, and not comfortable they are. Maybe I just didn't give them time to break in back in the day, but that was EASILY the most uncomfortable Nike shoe I EVER wore...especially for an Air Max. They cushioning was just hard, and I'm not sure what was with that Max unit. It just felt like a brick under my feet.

Peace,

you hit it right on the nail. they were heavy, hard cushioning, and had problems with sliding. not to mention not very good ankle support.

nike must be on crack these days. they are actually gonna charge 160 for these? did they not learn when they retroed this shoe the first time? or the pippen2's?

Think nike think....
 
hope the blk/white and red colorway are close to the originals. I was only in 5th or 6th grade when they first came out so i missed out on them
 
hope that its stays og style but with a better shoe weight. my OG's were a bit heavy but im not complaining. I can finally retire them and rock the retros.
 
I need those Pippen's in my life. x3 cop

+ 1 on the heavy and the sliding. The others, i didn't have any real problem with.
As for the $160, retailers will probably buy enough to justifythe cost of Nike producing them . After that, i doubt they really care if retailers have to discount them shortly after release.
