I just picked up my pair today and Im not disappointed. The leather looks and feels good. The red paint looks crappy but overall good shoe.

you still liked em enough to cop though right? even though you had to mix match pairs? if you say the suck then why did you buy them?Originally Posted by OriginalJS
Okay, here is my little input! If it helps.
I took a real good look at all the pairs at my work.
At least 80% of the 18 pairs we got were. I will post pictures later for proof!
Pre-worn creases, horrible paint jobs, and cheap materials. I mean, the tongue quality are exactly like the, cheap, true-blue Spiz'ike's.
Most of 'em look like B-grade shoes. We got some crisp pairs, but I had to MIX AND MATCH my pair.
IMO, the peeps who are satisfied must have gotten a great pair. I am trying to be neutral, but these suck! Well, at least what I've seen first hand.
did you really had to write the same thing on this thread and on the infrared oneOriginally Posted by Zero 0123
Hold these next to the Infrared pack White/Infrared VI's, and you will see a DAY and NIGHT difference. The leather on the Infrared pack is beautiful. These seem to be paper-like.
I was quite disappointed with these after seeing them in person today. I had these and the Infrared pack out and was comparing the two. I saw 4 different pairs of the Varsity Red pairs because the paint was real crappy. It looked like a 4th grader painted them. I was VERY disappointed with these when I saw them. I thought I'd like the V-Reds better than the Infrareds, but I was wrong.
Good luck to everyone trying to cop! These should be a real easy cop.

Thanks for the heads up, i will def have to give my pair a good look over when i cop, maybe mix and match like you did.

TRUTH IS, THIS IS A SOLID RELEASE FROM JB. NOW BRING ON THAT INFRARED PACK.Originally Posted by jpena0306
mann can someone please take a picture of a "bad" pair or take a compare and contrast pic of a "good" and "bad" pair?
I was 100% sold on buying these until i picked them up and held them. The paint was terrible on the insole and the Toe box "leather" was all sorts of goofy. The tounge was flimsy as well.Originally Posted by memphissfinest

I love Jordan Vi's and love my carmines. But i refuse to pay 150 for a pair of shoes that is sub par quality. Buy any other shoe that cost this much money. ANY brand. the quality put into them will be 50 times better. This is becoming rediculous
I'm not buying these things... *goes back to ordering AM 1s*
