Walked into snipes and got my pair. Happy birthday to me. Saw a lot of chrome and toro VIs on feet today and bred and university gold IXs. The gentleman that waited on me said he wasn’t going to buy these because of no 23 on the back.

Picked up pair from FTL today in Chicago, list only had 6 folks on it.

Should of waited till discount but i have no patience, now just waiting on Olives

I don't think these are going on discount. If you're waiting for that, good luck. Like someone said, they are very selective on what goes on discount. I'm still seeing Chambray 7s and Cardinal 7s at full price whenever I run across them.

I'm honestly not sure. I know several spots are being weird about these. Hibbett loaded sold out and GBNY didn't even load men's sizes. I don't think numbers are quite as high as high as some folks are thinking. At least that's the impression I'm getting. There was a lineup at my Richard's and lots of grumbling about "these ain't bricks." I'll say this about my area though, OG color Jordans never sit around Cincinnati.

We’re onto Cincinnati baby

 

[Kierris]

3-4 but too old to do that now

I can never get the laces on my 3/4s to sit right when I try to do rock em that way.

If I recall correctly those went on sale around the holidays. Rather or not these sit remains to be seen, but not worth retail for me.

 

[ccastro02]

they look pretty good overall. Still lowkey upset about the shape. Family photo with the other IX’s I have.

 

[JRepp23]

So the Jumpman appears slightly bigger to me. trappedintime ? In comparisons to the 2012 Olive.

 

[ccastro02]

These are definitely sitting in every store in the Roosevelt field mall. They have them out in full display (indicative of the fact that you can walk and scoop them up the old school way).

 

[JRepp23]

Should always be that way.

I got the Cardinals for $147 shipped. I don't remember if it was from Nike or another retailer, but either way, these are probably going on sale SOMEWHERE.

the cardinal 7's went on sale like 2 to 3 weeks later on non large nationwide chains and then a couple months later on nike.com with the promo codes

got my pair for like 110-120 i believe

not sure you would call it on sale but promo code eligible

 

[headdetective]

Right, cats talking about waiting for NIKE to put em on sale like they the only retailers out here.

Plenty of the joints mentioned that Nike won't discount can be had well below retail somewhere else.

These will be no different.

It’s not quite as small but it’s closer to that one than the CDP and prior size

Cardinal 7s went on sale everywhere. Where were you, in hibernation?

Yeah, plenty of other shops won’t have any problem slashing the prices OJ style on these.

Yeah

 

[headdetective]

slashing the prices OJ style.

You a wild boy

 

[OldManJays]

In hand. Not too bad. Wish they were a bit bulkier and had a higher mudguard like the og but they do look better than recent 9’s.

 

[Magic33]

Didn't really expect to see some of the responses I'm seeing for these 9s. I know on the last retro, they flew. Nice to see the change.

No they didn’t. They sat until they yellowed on shelves. I’m shocked that cheap *** paint didn’t flake off.

 

[yungxcve]

eBay currently has a 10% off promo using code NEWKICKS. Tempted but gonna wait it out for a better disco.

Glad you secured your pair brother. Happy birthday

 

[Sneakerseraphin]

Had to dig up my OG pair. Grabbing the new version for sure.

Did you repaint these? Been arguing the actual color of blue on these with my buddy for weeks. I was young when they dropped in the 90s but still remember seeing them. Most OG pairs I’ve seen look darker and I can’t tell if it’s due to age or what. This pair looks just like today’s release. I got my pair yesterday and thought the blue was too light.

 

[dominino313]

Bout to head out and pick up my FTL pair for my son. Managed to get my 12.5 off the Sneaker Politics raffle. Probably could have waiting for the SNKRS drop but I wasn't risking it.
