If you're talking about the ankle socks, you can add me to that group. Maybe it's because I'm older, but I think wearing shin/knee high socks with shorts looks ridiculous.I've always worn no-show socks when I have shorts on.
Goes back to my bball days, late 80s to late 90s.
Evidently, according to the youngbucks in my family, no-show socks aren't "cool."
Well, good.
I'ma keep doing my thing, b/c I'm old.

There are so many things to do in NYC and so many places to see/eat at, it would be hard to make recommendations without knowing your age, what you're into, etc. Flightclub is cool to visit if you're a sneakerhead and want to see a collection of a lot of older, rare sneakers. Since you'll be in the area, check out Union Square and the surrounding Greenwich Village area.
Rather than the NBA store, you might want to check out Flight 23 (The Jordan Store) located on 34th Street, which sometimes has unannounced restocks. It's next door to Footaction and a block from Madison Square Garden, if you want to check that out too. if you're going to be around the Times Square area, walk a few blocks to Bryant Park if you want to chill.
Niketown NYC unloaded its remaining stock of the Concords this past Sunday and good luck getting anything from 21 Mercer.
As for food, you might want to check out Chinatown and/or Little Italy downtown.

I'm going to return a size 10 to NTChicago today after work if anyone in Chicago wants a pair...the flaw is the fabric in the right toe wasn't enough so there is an excess roll of fabric that rubs on your toes when you have your foot in them. It is a shame because I was really hoping to wear these this summer...Oh well...

Totally agree with that.
Yes, we are minority, never liked the 1's, even back in the old days when they were released.

i totally agree
i was recently looking for some NBA logo ankle socks & couldnt find em but store workers STRESSED we got these stance socks(od patterns & to my calf) or these joints with faces on them & we got elites... i cut dude off & said "i want regular ANKLE socks with a solo nba logo fam, ONE color not 10 on one sock" .he replied "we aint got that dude & i honestly dont think anyone does" :x ....finally found them in champs hidden behind the register after going to about 5 stores in the mall
rant over

For those who have the mids, do you guys take out the XI insert inside the box to slow down the yellowing? Or does it have no effect?

all you complaining about pairs that you were able to get at retail need to shoot yourself or get out of the game, what do you expect? it's a MASS produced product by a bunch of people that get paid $2 a day. smh

So because people paid "only" retail, they should be content with a flawed product?

IMO
i dont think it has any affect. my mids been stored in my closet and in box with paper and they look good minus the yellowing around the traction pods which will happen with or without paper.
my spacejams been stored for years and taken out like 4 times total in the last 5 years, paper ripped so i havent had the paper in the box since release and guess what. they are yellow as hell
