def. passing on these without hesitation. rather have leather 03s. these were overproduced anyway and they will be around for awhile especially will all the releases coming in the next few weeks. still haven't seen them in person tho. ashy suede isn't what kills it for me tho, it's the lame numbers and sick face.

Who's whining, sir? How does pointing out the obvious equate to whining? Does that mean you're "whining" about the"whiners"? BTW, I highly doubt the pros get their shoes off the same assembly line you and I do. And even if they DID, the pros get to go though asmany pairs as they like. MJ wore a new pair of shoes every game when he played. I'd say they could get away with K-mart shoes doing that if they wantedto.Originally Posted by asilva23

I'm lovin how all these flakes are whining about how this shoe looks bad & how the quality is horrible.
too bad the nubuck looks and feels better than any previous version of this cw. and if the quality is so bad, how are the pros able to wear them at the highest level of the game.
Seriously, if this new nubuck version looks and feels better to you than any previous version of this colorway, you have ruined any credibility for yourself to ever judge shoes again. Some things are way too obvious to allow for the "everyone is entitled to an opinion" mentality.
a little cheese to go with that whine son.
Ignorance in a subject or field = lack of credibility in that subject or field. But you're right. I owned a pair of original Frenchblue/obsidian XIIs when they were brand new, and those bastards could take a beating. I loved them so much that I bought another very lightly used pair a fewyears later (well before the concept of retroing was all the rage). I miss those quite a bit, and it sucks for XIIs to be sitting right there, but yet, notwanting to buy them because it would tarnish the memories and experience of the originals.Originally Posted by Hetty714

Not that they ruined their credibility, but that they showed their ignorance. As soon as you put on a pair of OG's you get it.

Yeah, but you have to realize most of the people buying these have no clue what the quality and the colorway of the first retros were, let alonethe originals. They're buying "cuz itz dope!!1111" to have them right now. Hype is the only thing allowing JB's ever downward spiralingintegrity to slide.Originally Posted by koncrete kickz
i really didn't think they would so well with all the unnecessary changes they made to the shoe
