Talked with a worker at Champs today and they don't have any Men sizes only kids.Couldn't believe it should have asked if they were just holding them for all their friends.

Well, now that I'm an old man with a career and these are being retro'd, I'm sure as hell going to buy them. I've been looking for pre-orders for the last 2 months and finally found some available at SoleLegit for $270 shipped. Ridiculous price but my old $+@ is surely not going to camp out nor am I confident that I'd be able to get a pair tomorrow night. So I purchased them from SL. Order processed...hit my card, etc. Now these foos won't even respond to my email requesting confirmation that I'm definitely getting my kicks. I never got a confirmation from them, just from Google Checkout. They are listed in the NT Legit Sellers post so I'm sure hoping I get my IV's. Surely they can appreciate the fact that release is tomorrow night and customers want assurances that they can confidently let release day roll by knowing that their pair is on the way. If they don't email me tomorrow I guess I'll be forced to double-up tomorrow night if I can snag a pair online. Which site is most reliable, NDC, Eastbay, or FL?
They should have men's sizes..All of their pairs are probably spoken for by employees.Originally Posted by snax91

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.
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.Originally Posted by mross16

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

I held these 4s in my hand and checked out the leather......it's not exactly a step up from Mars or Militaries from 06.Originally Posted by itzbooranss

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.Originally Posted by itzbooranss

If you ask me that is way too much for a retro with bad quality.
I feel sorry for all the new kids that just started getting to shoes in the last 5 years.
Jordan Brand is pretty slick man. The price point was just right to have people still bite.
I wonder if the MsRP would have been $200 would people still buy.
I don't think so but if you really look at it your 5 singles and 2 ten dollar bills away from $200 from a chipping piece of $@$# product.
Be smart younglings be smart .....
I don't think saying these are better is saying muchOriginally Posted by mross16
