i mean patent leather has been good on a few jordans...and to be honest the 10's royal look so much better with it. It would look beyond plain for 160 plus tax
the shoes are trash...i mean i hooped in them. they are extra average...rather wear some durants and save 50...these suck....
jordan better off having there stars just push jordan retros in new colorways designs etc..maybe to get people wanting chicagos etc...
best bet is to roll to a mom and pop store the day of in the morning. You will be golden. After you buy 3 or 4 jordans from them on various release dates. You can then talk to owner and ask about pre orders, holding shoes to side..and various discounts etc
