Yup your always gonna compare to the originator. Cuz that's where it all started of course. I own a '74 Camaro btw. So were camaro brethren.
Nice! Restored, in the process or what?
these will be normal retail.
I's are cheap to begin with, thats how they can get away by raising the price.
$200 for a pair of III's?
Yeah but you can compare the New ZL1 to the 2002 GMMG Phase III ZL1 that had 600 hp....
Too many differences. Height, elephant print, materials, etc. Down the road collectors arent going to be looking for these as much because they recently dropped, and won't be hard to attain. They're gonna still want the '88 & '94 because rarity. No rare factor, then lil to no value in a big time collectors eye. One pair is the original, while the other was apart of the first wave of retros, not to mention the history behind both. The only shoe I think may or may not take an impact is the '03, but def the '11.
And believe me they're still gonna compare these to the '88 & '94.
It's like the car industry. When Camaro or Mustang drops their flagship car, like a SS, z28, Shelby or even base model... its always compared to the first generation 60's models. Not their mid to late 90's car. Because they're the most desire models

Imagine what would happen, if no one purchased this release. While it may not hurt JB financially it does send a message that we should some-what control what sneakers come out and the quality of them. JB is purposely showing us that these are the WC from 2011 and they are laughing saying do something about it.
Its unfortunate that there is so much hype behind any and every release. It isn't even possible to make a small concentrated effort of the masses not buying these
sounds like your love for JB has caused you to go in attack mode and thats fine but if you want half assed releases then be my guest and fall for whatever JB does. Someone has to be the sheep huh?
I understand you are new here but people are going to give you vague answers because you havent done your research before coming in here and started posting something unrelated in a thread dedicated to one specific shoe. You gotta realize its posts like those that fill up these threads with insignificant info/garbage.
I hope soSoo, you guys think they're gonna do the Black Cement IIIs, with Nike AIr, as well???
Its so beautiful *tears*

Nice to see other Camaro guys here....
2001 Camaro SS M6 here love my car to death.....
Exactly. Retros don't look like the OGs (even though I hope and think they will some day) but that does not necessarily mean that they are always ugly, right? I think the shape of the 2013 Grapes is on point too. Much better than the 2006 imo. Even though the materials do not seem to be getting any better soon, the sudden change in toebox shape is a pleasant surprise.
