what bad quality? my bro has had 'em for over a week, worn them everyday except today because it rained in ny, still looking brand new

wore mine yest. to macy's to do some shopping, u couldn't even tell i wore them unless i told u

quality is great on these.
If your enjoying the shoes more power to you, I mean that. Im still sorta looking forward to copping on Sat too.
But I gotta say that the fact that the shoes havent fallen apart in 7 days is not exactly a sign of great quality.  Great quality is good construction/stitching, good materials, good shape etc.

I hope these turn out to have some of that good quality, but Im not optimistic

. I normally wear a 10, but like people mentioned on here is to get your actually size unless you really have wide feet then that's a different story. I do have some room in the toe box, but it's all good I'll just put some extra soles and I'll be good haha..If not, come release day, I'll try and cop another.

I highly doubt that the quality on the 2012 cements is better than the military,mars, or cool grey iv's.

Starbury's were more durable.

You my friend have no idea what you're talking about. Military and Mars IVs were one of the most worst produced sneakers JB has made in the past decade. The leather was soo bad and there were so many reports of glue stains, defects and squeaking.

Have you not seen the cheap stuff they're using on a majority of the retro's now? You're partially right about what you're saying but I still think the quality on both those retros will be better than these that drop tomorrow. Pretty much every shoe that has dropped in the past couple of years has been greeted by large amounts of hate about the quality, defects, or squeaking and we all know that the quality of the cool grey iv's is far better than the 2012 cements. You'll see all of the complaints roll in after the release.

CG IV >>> '12 Cements. The leather is brick sheet hard and i found glue stains stuck in between the mesh. Luckily i was able to tweezer it out. This pair isn't some crappy reseller site with low quality pairs either. Got mine from a homie's plug who received their store shipment last friday. At the rate they went, i dont think any are hittin the shelves.

 Dont let the box fool yall, JB's BEEN in it for the MONEY for quite some time now.

We get it...and it doesn't matter.  They're still gonna sell out.
 
yea had to pay about $150 of custom fees from various euro sites for the concords. done ordering from those sites will rather take my chances on ndc or instores.
 
Anyone watching the 2001 NBA All-Star game right now on NBA Classics? Loving this %+#!. I've been trying to find a pic of the shoes Kobe wears in the game and I can't find 'em. Straight yellow joints, can't remember if they were Adidas or Nike. I just remember I wanted them $@#%$ when I was a kid. Vince Carter straight throwing down in the BB Shox. Sorry it's off topic it's just awesome watching this game.
 
I'd like to have these but I'm working at 7am Saturday and really didn't want to go through all the online drama trying to order. Oh well...

They were Adidas the Kobe, the all star yellow ones. 
 
Based on the concord release, i'm hesitant to go with any more euro retailers. i got hit hard with customs fees and i had to wait 2 to 3 wks to get my delivery. i guarantee you will see peeps complaining about customs and delivery delays here in a couple of weeks. with delivery fees plus customs duties, the IVs will hit 250+. at that price, you might as well hit up ebay or craigs and get them earlier than by the time euro sites ship them to your door. just sayin
 
Got one pair last week for $225

Got the Sneakersnstuff pre-order on Saturday

Will try to cop a pair on NDC or at the local Modell's on release day.

3 pairs and I'm set

THIS.

It may be tad expensive, but knowing you can cop with ease and no headache is a win in my books.
 
Got both black cements and concords from euro sites..never got hit with customs fees. Got two pairs of black cements from EC and 2 pairs of Concords from HS.
