Pics of the VI + XVII Countdown pack

My wife loves her OG pair. Will the Kids retro Carmine be nubuck or leather like the OG's?

Retros have never hit it close to the bar set by OGs. That should be a fact with NIKE.

I still think the color on the retros look too pinkish red toned. But it's alright, not like cats would care. The 17s are straight trash judging by thequality. It's sad.

Buy Js cuz you like them, not cuz you trynna impress someone, girl or boy for that matter.

I think the VI's run a little big. the xvii runs true to me. I just copped my regular size since I won't be balling in the carmines anyways.
 
Im not gonna ask anyone for their spot.....but, I will go on a hunt for these tommorow. What "areas" of Manhattan/BK should I start looking?

I havent bought kicks in a store in a minute....so pardon my ignorance
 
^^ Wouldn't it be foolish to expose it?

Gone are the days of people helping. The worst thing is when people try to insinuate subtle useless and meaningless comments. It's sad and a pity how andwhy people bother to take excessive pictures about their pair when in fact it doesn't matter whatsoever.

Seriously speaking though...I rarely engage in most conversations on forums with sneaker people.....cause to be honest, a lot of people have anelitist/holier then thou attitude. Most of my time online is buy/sell forums to look for stuff I want/get rid of stuff I dont want.

If people dont wanna help....thats cool. I got a few days free, and I always enjoy going to other boroughs and browsing around. If it takes me a lil longerfinding a spot that has the packs early so be it...Thing I dont get is that if other people already got theirs, then whats the big deal in helping someone elseout? Dont wanna do it cause the holier then thou/Im stylin on you/etc attitude I expressed before? Then thats cool too....either way Ill get mines somehow,someway

It's a dog eat dog world these days. Sad, but it's the truth. People who think they got their's first are just insecure people riding onmeaningless pride. Only true top cats refrain from positing. Only the elites do their thing. The only foolios are those that are insecure and wante-cookies. But seriously, if you asked yourself. Why hasn't the people who GOT THEIRS, POSTED PICS not willing to help? There's your answer. Buthonestly who gives a %##% if you posted a picture online. A few minutes and the pages gets pushed away. LOL @ peeps trying.. If you haven't figured,it's because times have changed and helping out is not a thing anymore.. =|

Nuff said. It's how it is bro. Get use to it.
 
I LOVE DA VI BUT I SAW THEM IN PERSON AND THE CARMINE WAS VERY DISAPONTING....I WATED FOR THEM TO RETRO THIS VI AND IT KIND OF LOOKS PINKISH TO ME...IM STILLGONNA COP BUT..AGAIN THE COLOR JUST WASNT RIGHT

Well said bro, you said it all. Back to the topic...(dont wanna derail it)....Ive never owned a pair of VIs, but a lot of people have said they fit alil big, yet I know the 17s run a bit snug cause I own a few OG pairs. For people that already have the packs though.....when you tried on/wore both...did youguys feel a big difference?? Cause I dont wanna buy the pack...be able to fit into the Carmines fine, yet have a problem with the 17s cause they feel too small
 
ive heard rumors of the rest of the packs being retail on swoosh. does anyone have any RELIABLE information on this? i dont feel like calling nike customerservice and sitting on the phone.

I feel they fit like all other Jordans, cept the 1s & maybe 23s; it's a true fit. So get your true size, but as they say, if your in doubt justsize up .5
