The bins are nice, for the most part, but also overrated - though I love the BIN 13s. Not really anything interesting done with most of those silhouettes. Some of the premiums seem to be going for a more sophisticated take. I can respect that.
Agreed. A smart move by JB, going premium. Quality is on point. No fake leather on these. And, I actually prefer the leather laces on what's styled like a boot, any way.
These are dope. Not sure why people are willing to pay 400 plus for ten year old retros, but complain about the price tag on these. To each their own. The pinnacle line has been interesting so far - unique looks and materials. My only complaint is the attention to detail. Colored box and dust...
AGREED. A million times over. One of the dope things about the previous three was the attention to detail. This one felt like an afterthought. Shoes are dope, though.
I got both. The 2011s have the best leather of any Jordan 1 ever made. One of the best Js of all time. 2016s are dope, and closer to OG, but the 2011 is just a better made shoe all around, if you care about thatIMG_0221.JPG (1,331k. JPG file) type of thing. They're both dope, though.
What? Got Luke shook? Where did you see that? The dude from that Girls show on HBO ain't got nobody shook. Rey was strong with the force, but she beat him five minute after she first picked up a light saber... He's the Kobe Bryant to Vader's Jordan, if he's lucky. That said, nice t-shirt.
These are dope. Despite young bucks who hate on the 2, it's a dope shoe.This is how you do gold on a shoe. Arguably, between this and the Don C Beach 2s, could be best J releases of the year.
Less? Or, more limited? The Finales were 529 pairs, correct? 23 in 23 stores. This white/gold pair is officially the most limited XX3 out there. Prices may come down for a sec, but I think eventually, they stay up, just based on the numbers.
Dope. XX3 is one of the best silhouettes of all time. Still think the Titaniums are the best, but the white/gold is really growing on me. A grown man's shoe.
Love the XX3s. Love the fact that they look nothing like 1-14 as well. As for the fit, I find that the Titaniums fit me really well. No soreness. The Old Loves, too. I think it's because they both used tumbled leather, so the shoes breathes a little more. If there is one knock on the XX3s, it's...
All relative. Might be more talented. Might also be less skilled. Not as good at individual defense or posting up. Or, frankly, competing hard against each other. But, it's definitely apples and oranges. And, it always will be.
