    The quality on retro j's are trash. So trashy thst Jordan brand is releasing "remastered" shoes next year for $50 more. Probably gonna be the same trash quality

    I agree for certain retros. The 11s have been very consistent though. The 6s, 9s, 10s have been bad. Mostly the 6s.

    Let's get so something straight, the 11s bring out more thugs than sneaker heads. The hype about 11s is stupid. I waited in line outside of Baybrook for 2 hours to get the What The Lebrons and not even an argument. Sneaker heads like me know to stay away from 11 releases.

    Reason being that there has never been a better looking sneaker than the 11s.

    Very much agreed. They are my grails and will bite the bullet and buy them off Flight Club next week.

    So footlocker got scared & wouldn't even open?

    Yet another example of African-American rights being preemptively denied out of fear.

    You know you can try to buy these online from Nike,eastbay,ect right? No shoe is worth the rape prices of eBay and flight club. This is why it's so crazy now. People know there are folks out there that will pay ridiculous prices for sneakers.

    If I can't get them online retail or through raffle, I'll just move on. It's never that serious. And I've been fairly successful through my methods.

    Do you have bots? I was waiting for Black Friday 6s for two hours on NDC and Finishline. Ended up with nothing. I have the money. I don't trust eBay with shoes that expensive. I will try eBay but if I have too I will go to flight club or some shop here locally.

    They would be able to loot them if this was Ferguson.

    Then again, one of them would have gotten shot after attacking a police officer :rolleyes:

    The 11s coming out on the 20th are so sick. I need them in my life but I'm not waiting in line. Online or bust. I have the cool greys and breds so this will be the capper.

    You can buy 2 if your order manages to go through. Flip one. Easy peasy.

    Don't understand the appeal of Jordan shoes tbh. I was never a big fan of them.

    Your plan from Plan A (getting it at retail) to Plan B (getting it at Flight club) is fairly extreme.
