My order is still "in progress." But I'm not worried, I know Nike is all busy with all the orders from the past day. Just trying to stay optimistic

damn dude... now you got me paranoid that NDC ain't gonna come through for me
when did yours say it was shipped 335i few hours ago?
I wasnt talking about shape. The 2011s are shaped more slim like the 1988s and 1994s, which I prefer. The 2001s, 2003s, 2007s, and 2008 CDPs all have a fatter shape, which is kind of a turn off. The 2011s leather is more tumbled than the 2008s, which is why I said they're more comparable to the 2001s.Originally Posted by The7onius

-2011s leather is better than the CDP version. It isnt as shiny in person as in pics. The tumbled leather parts are reminiscent of the 2001 retro, except not QUITE as good.
-2011's elephant print is better than the extra bold elephant print on the 2008 CDP version
-2011 has the same amount of padding on the heel collar that the 2001 retro has. The tongue is slightly less padded than previous retros.
-Once again, if you don't like the shiny appearance, use either Krylon Matte Finish or a Magic Eraser to get rid of it. Either one isnt going to damage the shoe. The Matte Finisher makes your shoes feel extra dry at first, but that goes away after a hour or two.
-With Wearable Shoe Trees, these dont crease much at all.
Overall, I give the 2011s a solid B. I had the 2001 Black Cements and the 1994 White Cements, and compared to those. The 2011s are not up to that quality. But they are miles better than the CDP imo.
I disagree, the 08's are closer to the 01's. I've held them side by side and the 2011's are shaped way differently, as for quality of the leather, the 08's and 11's are quite similar.
