Thoughts/Opinions/Reviews of the Pippen I Retro

[mjmoney23]

How does Niketalk feel about this retro. The black/red colorway is one of my all time favorite shoes. I picked up 2 pairs of them, and a pair of theblack/white/purple. Besides the smaller bubble, these were on point to the OG. I feel that the retro + colorways were weak for the most part. Theblack/purple pair is very nice, and if it was an og, it would recieve as much love as the black/red colorway. The browns were garbadge, and so were the allblacks. Nike should have dropped another color or two in these. With all these factors included, I would give the release a 8/10 overall. What do you think?

since these are one of the pairs of sneakers i was desperate to get, i ive he retro a 10...besides the shrunken air bubble, no noticeable differences...nearlyeveryone up here wants a white based retro of these to drop, me included...to me, the blk/purp didn't have enough purple in it...the blks are clean to meand i will pick a pair or two up for all-purpose usage...browns are

tho...i hope they drop more cw's for them...please nike do the right thing and retrothe wht cw

ALL I WANT TO SEE IS THESE WHITES DROP ......PERIOD......

.....I DONT CARE ABOUT ANY OTHER CW
I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THE OG AIR BUBBLE BUT U KNOW HOW THAT GO....AND YES I'M COMPLAINING
ABOUT THE AIR BUBBLE....ITS THE LITTLE THINGS THAT MAKE THIS SHOE WHAT IT WAS...ITS LIKE DOING A
RETRO OF THE XI BUT NOT MAKING IT PATENT LEATHER OR A BACKWARDS JUMPMAN.....

^^Sup swerv1n

that pic is crazy and u love to post it huh lol.

I think these would move a '' bit'' faster than the black ones .

 

[inchecksince81]

Too many crap colorways, didn't do these the justice they deserved.

 

[timelessflight]

still need to get the black/red colorway and for a good price.

 

[nickepockets]

I was never a huge Pippen I fan...but that pic of the white ones is insane...

 

[swerv1n]

What up mjsaver yeah that pic is so sexy.....I got it as wallpaper for my pc & cell phone.....just waitin to hear these r droppin...I'll be doinbackflips when I do. Coppin X3 if they drop......we'll prolly never see em again....it's a shame these ain't retroed yet

When that wht colorway drops, it'll sell really well.

Me personally, I love the Pippen I. The brown retro+ colorway was not needed. Blk/purple was decent. I can see Pippen himself wearin' that in an all-stargame, and the blk/blk, I was not bad.

 

[kchildz1]

I passed on them for the same reason I did back in the day.....too bulky!

Swerv been waiting on those whites for years! Been posting it in all the threads

"If you post it they will come"

^^ Sorry guys, if the whites retroed, the sales would tank.

 

[wsjones1981]

And u know this how.....? That's just a dumb assumption wit no info to back it up. All the Pippen 1 releases did good and who cares how they sell as longas the people who want em get em as wit any shoe release. If u don't want em don't buy em. Either way the white ones will fly off the shelves so urpost is ridiculous
