yea i switch every 6 months but its not bad i mean it works u know yellowing u cant do anything against anyway but it def slowers it i never have a sign of it happening yet and the packs are cheap so its easy to keep up withsilica packs are bad news in my opinion
i don't think 1 year is enough time to affirm their benefit or realize possible long-term negative effects
Switching them out will do nothing. Silica absorbs moisture, which will end up drying out the shoes, which in the long run will make the shoes crumble.yea i switch every 6 months but its not bad i mean it works u know yellowing u cant do anything against anyway but it def slowers it i never have a sign of it happening yet and the packs are cheap so its easy to keep up with
so does saran wrap but thats a long process to crumble the shoe if you actually wear the shoes and walk in them then store then in the box with no paper with the gel it slows yellowing its a proven fact. but the crumble thing is mainly for ppl who just store and dont wear them i seen shoes in saran wrap from 2008 u take off the wrap they dont crumble so thats a long process i gave him a solution to slow down yellowing. You brought up a complete different subject by crumbling but that is easily slowed down by actually wear the shoe.Switching them out will do nothing.

Wow. Nobody would even notice that if you didn't say something about it. I barely even notice it even after you said something. If you are that anal, you will rarely be happy with JB quality. Get out now!I just got a replacement pair off of ebay this morning.

I wanted to share my findings and see if NDC possibly sold me B-grade Fire Red 5's
The evidence is in the tongue...
I will be comparing the ridges on the tongue from both the NDC and the Ebay pair respectively...
NDC (Ridges are shallow, Jumpman Imprint is shallow)
EBAY (Ridges on tongue and the Jumpman impression is much deeper and pronounced)
SIDE BY SIDE (Ebay on Left, NDC on right)
If anyone has pics of their tongues please charm in
ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!

I am done with Jordans after getting my cement 3s. The quality is subpar. But, I'd say 80% of the Retro Jordans are underwhleming from a quality perspective. The quality has been horrible for years and I prefer to spend my money on other shoes. JB knows people will buy whatever they come out with. So, I guess I don't blame them for spending less money on quality control. Why spend the money when most of the time the shoes are being resold, stuck ina box or worn by people who are just happy they are wearing Jordans.trust, after the royals drop I am just about done with JB...
That's a lie.wore mine today...
