Ill get my usual one pair for retail. Got a fresh pair already.... well not so fresh. Yellowed over time. I dont wear my sneakers enough to double up, plus 2 pairs of foams is almost 5 bills. Lol.

unlike overpriced Jordan Brand sneakers, these are worth it
I mean if you can justify paying $200 for any pair of sneakers then go ahead...
I want these but I can't afford them right now
Foams are tanks. Aside from clear soles yellowing, they will brand new with a swipe of a damp cloth.

I havent looked through the thread, but how do these run fit wise? in the recent release pearls i had to wear a 14 instead of usual size of 13. do they run the same as the pearls?

When 30% off or more is a significance, especially when you getting multiple pair...

the retro foams have always been the best retro/close'st to the og shoe to me. maybe cuz i dont have to worry about shrunk'n air units or weird shapes. and with their price still being $200 i think it is save to say they were hella over priced in the 90s since their still $200 now.

Damn it! the ridges are not as distinct. I guess all that talk was right. The color on the 2007 is deeper too which is more close to the OGs.

Open them in different internet tabs, line them up and go back and forth quickly. I'd expect this from JB but c'mon Nike.
Oh well, still wont stop me from getting a pair. I have a feeling once I get the 2011 and compare them to my OGs I'm going to be disappointed.
