Elephant print is on point again.... Can't wait...just arrived!!!
quick review: elephant print is consistent and thin on both of my shoes. leather on most of the shoe is good by todays standard. Not banned or BIN status...think Chicago X leather. Shoes fit TTS. VERY strong smell. leather on perforated area on tongue feels like very cheap split grain leather. leather on tongue where Jumpman is feels buttery. Seriously, it feels like Banned 1 leather in that area. ankle of the shoe is thinner than previous retros and toebox sits lower, giving it a better looking shape. midsole paint job is A-1 too and doesnt look like itll crack anytime soon.
overall good quality and a excellent tribute to the slam dunk contest
Yea they sell for around $400 on ebay...I heard that people are paying an extra 200 buck just for the Nike Air Sign on the back of the shoe...thats just ludicrous!
i know dude been on it. i just was making fun of celebrities wearing heat. you know how impressionable people are.
waiting for a justin timberlake photo to complete the trilogy.
damn them things looking pretty sweet. nice!My FNL pair just arrived, these kicks are on POINT! The leather is quality, the shoes are flawless. I'm so happy right now

Did they use this same leather on the 2011's?besides the holes on the tongue & the back heel
minus the nike air branding there really is no difference on quality
its the same greasy leather and i like the cheap greasy leather
got em 2 hours ago
really. seems like hes the bigger dude in all this bickering. if it werent for mods like him these threads would be a wreck. my opinion tho...ur mileage may vary. back to the shoes... and on a side note one of our more reliable sources in here called nike air vi's for $250 in the near future. jb gonna have us by the balls smhyou write like youre soft.....

I noticed the card that came with the shoes says 'high-performance leather is used throughout the Air Jordan shoe providing soft leather comfort with better durability"

I dont think he's hating on the dude possibly getting $1 I think he's saying even $2 is too little for all the help that link offered, especially if people turn around and make nearly 100% profit (resellers that is). Either way, no dog in this fight - just appears to be some back and forth about two separate issues.i'm just curious why u care so much what other ppl do with they money famb?? i never understood this. ftr, i got my pairs WITHOUT the backdoor link so i could care less either way. but if dudes copped from the link that dude dropped, and they're grateful from the standpoint that they feel like dude dropping the link was THE reason they were able to cop, why do u care if they paypal him $1 per.
i personally think that's how it should work if they wanna do that. $1 is hardly alot, but if every person that copped from the link that feels like they wanna give dude a dollar he could make a nice lil come up for sharing info he didn't have to share. what's wrong with that??
what is it to u? u mad dude is potentially coming up? u wish u woulda been the one who dropped the link, huh?? not saying ur a hater famb bc iu don't know u, but u def. come across like one.
1kCan someone who has connections at Nike find out the approximate amount of shoes that were made?
I truly wonder.
20k to GR numbers is a huge range
There is really no such thing as the right way. People will still complain regardless. The fairest way is to just let people line up and the early bird gets the worm.So many pairs on ebay, its sad.
I really do feel bad for those who really wanted them but missed out.
Help me out here, first we complained that the in store release was just crazy. People getting robbed and even killed over a pair of Jays. We wanted CHANGE, and we got it.
NIKE changed their ways on how to deal with releases. They started doing the RSVP online and in store (even that doesnt work because its rigged). BUT THATS STILL NOT ENOUGH because again, its rigged.
For those who did not get the shoes (and anyone else who wants to reply) how or what should NIKE do different? How do you want them to release a shoe to make it fair?
Is there anything different Nike , Finish line and all the other store can do to stop the purchasing of multiple pairs by one person?
I dont work for any of the mentioned companies above. I simply want to know what you as the shoe buyer want NIke to do. I personally like the online release.
