^^ the IXs in the retro pack are straight fire-- not sure what you are talking about...I love how everyone rips on the quality of the retro shoes, yet manyNBA players are balling tough in them....Good enough fpr the NBA, but not for Niketalk.....pretty funny....nba-ers have/are wearing retro 3s, 5s, 8s,2s......

white/red = AUTHENTIC

red suede = AUTHENTIC

grey suede = ASPIRATIONAL

white/white = UNCOMPROMISED
black/black = EARNED

so there u go. these XXI's are retros of the black/black ones.

Yeah the red suede says ASPIRATIONAL, im not sure on the rest
 
Saw a pair on display at a modells today and i was disappointed in the quality of the II's. I had such high hopes when the sample pics where first shownbut the leather just looked and felt so cheap.

i tried on the CDP IX, and even though they look pretty (much better in person than online), the soles are rock hard. Were the OG's like this?

U KNOW JORDAN BRAND ADDS EXTRA CUSHIONING AND USES MORE DURABLE MATERIALS FOR THE PE'S RIGHT?
 
just because they are a pe doesnt mean they get better quality shoes than we do
i have alot of pes and i must say some are better some are the same
 
Just tried on the 2s today. Man they're gorgeous, I need these sneakers. But I still have my Agassis on hold so I can't do much about it lol.
 
2's are cool but the 21's ensure that this pack will be easy to get for months and for way under retail.
 
Yes!!! I actually found somebody who wants to buy the XXI's from me for a NICE amount... II's here I come!
 
I wouldn't wanna split this pack...since I missed out on the Red suede XX1's I might have to replace this with em ..Thats if I get em
 
I believe this CDP will be available...and for less than retail...that makes me optimistic that I will have these 2's I want and can dump the XX1 at myleisure or allow them to rot away in the box...

Confused?

Why Nike on these ii's
But no Nike on the Charity ii's or black-cement IV's or Carmines?
just wondering....
