I Don`t post in here often but since you mentioned this, certainly caught my eye.My question is What are you people trying to accomplish (a.k.a Nikekidwonder,etc etc)for constantly replying to all the hate for these shoes? Defending them from people that don`t like them? Just like everybody else, THEY GOT THEIR OWN OPINION ..
ON THE SIDE: i`m still copping multiplesand NikekidWonder MIGHT BE ABLE TO HIT 300 POST in this THREAD ALONE... good for you kid

My guess is no. One, you would complain that the shoe many of you dropped $300-$500 on was now readily accessible. Two, you would still complain about the quality, saying paint chips were inexcusible. Third, alot of you would fabricate faults that you "found" with the shoe, saying the shape is off and what not.
My point is that the mass public who can't afford Infrareds now get a similar colored VI with different material. Your investment that you worked so hard to attain is protected. I'm an semi-OG of this board (I've been here at least 5 years and have several OG Jordans) and don't mind this colorway. You can complain until the cows come home, but your complaints fall on deaf ears. Jordan Brand doesn't care. The newbies don't care..they'll buy what they want and your opinion isn't going to change that. Saying "you don't like them" over and over is just wasting your breath. With a week away, do you honestly expect them to scrap this shoe? NO! They're coming out, and there's no other choice than to either buy them or don't buy them.
Talking about how things used to be doesn't mean a damn thing. NOTHING stays the same..especially 10 years later. The only thing you can do is be thankful you were around to experience the previous release, or let the past stay in the past and move on.
Not really, dude. I'm an Original sneaker-head but, I don't think like they do. I can keep an open mind. Things change, so do sneakers.From Converse All-Stars to Air Jordans. A real sneaker-head doesn't try to impose their thoughts onto other people. Just rock what you like regardless ofothers' opinion. It's just certain individuals that think they have a correct say because they've been on niketalk for 50 years or they got theirfirst pair of J's when the retro versions started coming out, that have this mentality. The sneaker-head community is a family too. You have your brothersand sisters, then you have your relatives from afar that you just cannot seem to come eye to eye with for whatever reason.Originally Posted by Chief Ediri

The shoe community is a joke. Mainly because of OG sneakerheads.
