i changed my mind today when i saw them so i copped a pair. it's still a VI so i had to have them, the colorway is slowly growing on me. i'm still not a fan of the patent leather but to me they look better in person than all the pics have shown. i got them for 120 so i scooped them up.
Damn, so if Mercedes Benz made a car with Green doors, a blue hood, and a red roof.... It's still a MB so it's still a good buy??

The patent leather in any other color would be OD. Definitely a good summer shoe

no, it isn't "people buyin anything", i love the VI. it's one of my favorite of all of them, i personally like the colorway more in personthan all the pics before drop. oh and to the dude talking bout the benz, i wouldn't buy, that was a stupid comparison. i bet you own fusions and spizikes,i don't hate on others like that. to each their own on kicks, the biggest reason i bought them is cause i'm not worried to wear them in the ground, iprefer to keep my infrareds, real oly VI, dmp VI all as close to DS as i can.

Definitely predicted that off the bat. There are 2 different types of Jordan afficianados nowadays the typical NT afficianados that put more meaning in the JBbrand than they deserve and those who just buy them because of the aesthetics and as much as some will never outright agree the colorway on this one isn'tnearly half as bad as others. Still minimal in nature with enough flair without pushing the envelope too far. Definitely not for practical wear per se butcertainly a unique addition to a collection.
It's like the viotech dunks, how is it that one year it is on sale at Dr. Jays by the crates for $19.99 and another it's fetching tenfolds?

Wow...I can't believe these are actually selling out online and in some parts of the country. It's no wonder JB can just put out any old retro modelwithout hesitation. They know they will sell regardless of quality. It is a shame too because this was regarded as one of the best brands. Now they are puttingout retros with lower quality leathers than shoes you could buy at walmart.

even at $105 I had to pass these up...the vagina and patent leather is what makes these shoes tacky IMO...regular leather and a plain toebox and I may havebought some for novelty purposes...
Only a matter of time until the buyers remorse starts to kick in for all the poor souls who bought these
...unless they bought them to show their pride
....Then I sayit was probably a good buy
Both stores in my mall that got them are still sitting on FSR's
Not to mention the 3 mom & pop shops that got them....and they never get anything limited round here so anyone who bought them for "limited"reasons just fell into hype

I actually sat wit my homie and contemplated getting them for almost 20 mintues in the store.... Im waiting for other people to get em and once I actuallypicked em up and held dem in my hands, I just had to cop em
Now, they are going for almost $200 shipped on ebay and have sold out in alot of major markets around the U.S.
Jordan Brand knew what they were doing all along
Im pretty sure they monitored all of the sneaker boards and knew the hype was gonna sell da shoe
