Official Air Jordan VII Retro Filbert & Obsidians Release Thread 8/4/12: NO BUYING/SELLING/TRADING!

[yoof]

Released in only select locations huh?  Just as I thought.  JB would be idiotic to make these a regular GR.  The ONLY reason these sold was because JB didn't nearly make as many pairs as a general release.  Garbage shoes in my opinion, and the opinion of many others.  To those that like them, more power to you.

Yes I do. When they originally dropped, I actually liked them. They were such a unique looking shoe that I didn't care that people didn't like 'em. I did. I almost wish they would have given the VII's the same multi colored treatment.

It's the stitching and patterns that ruin the shoes...the colorways alone are fine.

I received my conformation email right away. I received my shipping email last night at midnight.

These are down right atrocious.
Any NT'ers actually cop because they like?
They made these so limited for no reason.

Ta each his own I guess... Liked 'em from the moment I saw them, and they look great on feet, they go with basically any jeans. Also Ive gotta say the quality is waayyy better than the Olympic VIIs from last month. Also its always nice to be confident that you wont be seeing another pair of what you've got on.

not as bad as the other pics but still very bad.... might look ok under jeans but shorts :x

Probably would have made them look a lot better because I actually copped the 1s too.

 

[cashm0neyand1]

wow, worst jordans of all time.

 

[eltouha]

^no way. from all the 7's alone, these are way better than the miros, the dmp pack (both pairs), the orions and the bins.

pics on feet, please.

Like many I didn't really like these at all after seeing pics.  However, I saw the obsidians in person and thought they looked much better than the pics.  In person I feel the stitching doesn't "pop" like in does in the pics and is more subtle.   Also, the light khaki details, which include the shoe laces, go perfect with the obsidian imo.

these 7's are

Meh.

Throw em on feet.

Haven't really seen on feet pics.

Congrats on the pickup though.

 

[ripc]

These look even worse in actual photos :x

 

[tritacco23]

I actually think both look decent. I feel like they're either gonna be completely forgotten, or be worth a lot in the future. I wish I had the chance to cop 

 

[victortheguru]

Would the GMP 6s be a good trade for these?

 

[bad lieutenant]

[font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]no way. from all the 7's alone, these are way better than[/font]...the bins.

Hell NO 

 

[futuredhughes]

Straight up?

 

[downsouthkicks]

in my opinion i rather the gmp bag and extra shoe laces by itself over these vii

 

[victortheguru]

Straight up?

naw not just one of them lol the whole JBk pack or whatever 

 

[futuredhughes]

naw not just one of them lol the whole JBk pack or whatever 

I meant anyone.

I would say no because I don't like these 7s.

But if you do, then definitely.

At the end of the day, you'll have to live with the trade, not anyone else.

Well maybe the other guy.

in this pic they dont look THAT bad but theres no way anyone can wear these. i guess if you have money to spend then keep them in the closet and say you own a rare pair of kicks, kinda but im not sure you can wear these with nything.

This is a joke right? Not sure if this is a serious statement

 

[eltouha]

Hell NO 

bins are utter trash. the only 7 worse than bins are miros.
