Classy guy this MJ. Hall of fame speech had to be the zenith of his egotism

Good stuff man. Love zoom air.

To me, I hypebeast is someone who will buy regardless of quality, style, design or self opinion and bases his purchasing decisions purely on hype. I agree with you and I do put my money where my mouth is. The last few jordan retros I bought made me feel like I was scammed by nike, they were...

Is it just me or do the materials feel about cheap to the touch on these (except for the carbon fibre, of course)?

Watching the bulls vs miami from the 1996 playoffs. Seeing the proper shake ndestrukt makes it even worse that nike can put out garbage such as the bastardized retro version. It looks sort of similar but it hasn't got character like the og, the colors are hideous, and I'm not going to give my...

Someone didn't get his south beaches. The only solution is to produce more units. But since nike is a capitalist corporation answerable only to its shareholders, you can't force them to do it. At least it's not like in communist Russia where you couldn't even choose a size

I often wondered if  fakes and some of these retros are any different in quality. The xivs they recently released were a joke. Fakes are probably better than those. And the xi cdp, if I didn't get them from nike I would swear they were cheap fakes

lebron elite or jordan 2012

I never played in them so I can't comment on them

Hello fellow niketalkers, I'm sure you've all noticed nike's latest way to ruin retros: stuff an air max unit on every one. Don't get me wrong, air max has it's place, it's just not on shoes that were never designed to have it.  I don't really get this trend. Is it because it sells more or...

I don't particularly care for XX-XXII but I loved the XIXs, especially the white/black pair. I hope they do eventually retro

What they need to do is change the pulltab on these where it says "quality inspired by the greatest player ever" to "quality inspired by the bottom line".

Hybridizing the hybrids. Hilarious. Can you can imagine a 6 rings son of mars? Yuck.  I bet you next on their list is the jordan 1-23. All models in one shoe.  

Picked up a pair of ds ginger XVIs. First time I paid over retail for a shoe, but I just love these. Plus, they'll last until jb finally do retro the xvis and they're probably going to cheap out on materials as well

They finally drop some more pips with the seattle 1s and don't release in the UK? Well done nike, making pips limited. And I'm certainly not paying $300 for some pippens

They can't even get dates right. Like the 64 pts vii they did. 

Have they run out ideas that they spend time designing this trash? There's still a bunch of retros they haven't touched (XVI-XIX) but they waste resources on these? Waste of of plastic or whatever nasty material they're going to use to produce these

Shox bb4 are HOH. Why? It's not some hypebeast shoe for collecting. It's designed for playing. Making it limited to 20 pairs or whatever they get at each HOH is idiotic

I can understand that. Nothing is worse than seeing one your favourites re-release and not being able to get it because nike won't be satisfied unless the chaos to get it ends up on the nightly news. It's like nike's on a mission to reduce inventory costs to a few hours on release day. Crazy...

I have a feeling GP was serious when he said they're dropping in Oct. The pippen sonics were kept under wraps until a few days before release. Down side is they're probably going to be some limited QS HOH BS.
