Easy cop and I must say these have become my top 5 Jordan.

Loving my pair. Still waiting on shipping confirmation from NDC for my second. I can't say I've worn many of my shoes the day I copped like I did these! Used a magic eraser to remove some black marks on the pods, but I think the quality is on par.

I know that the quality issue has been done to death. It is an issue I don't address normally but I felt like I had to share my experience with this release. It is nauseating at times reading this thread about the quality and minor issues that are inevitable with any shoe. Even OG's have minor issues as shown in this thread. Someone is always going to get a pair with something off. It is what it is.
Anyways, the XIII's are my fav. so I had to copp 3x. I got a couple of spots that let me pay for them in advance and pick them up later. It is real hard to pull away from work so I just pick them up when I can. I went to pick up my pairs today and with all the complaining on the quality issues I had to see for myself. I don't mind glue stains or anything minor as long as they look on point I'm good. I opened my first pair and took out the shoe and immediately noticed about 10 little deep cuts on the toe box and along the leather wear the toe box meets the rubber. Don't know how this could happen or slip by without noticing. Upon futher inspection of the same shoe i noticed little brown marks on the leather all over the shoes. Don't know if anyone else had this issue. I took a couple pics with my phone. Way more noticible in person and yes the hologram was off too even though that isn't really an issue for me. All my other pairs were on point with no glue stains and no minor issues. So I just returned that pair. Good thing I manage to snag another pair from a friend who wears my size for retail.

I know 3 pairs is a little much but I don't plan on reselling them. I just wear my shoes and like to have a back up. Glad these finally released. Now I can give my OG beaters a rest and not have to un-DS my other OG pairs for a while.

Close...

They're nice, true to form, great materials, etc., etc. and JB did no wrong with'em but I can easily say the B/R OGs or '04s are a nicer looking, better shoe to me. And yeah I saw what MJ did in'em along with wearing the XIVs in the '98 finals. They got history, no doubt. And if they had'em in my size when I picked up the one I got, I might even keep'em. But lettin'em go in exchange for the dough to buy one of my Grails? No brainer. Easy trade for me.No harm to those who love'em...I just kinda like'em so on the Net they go!

I wouldn't panic yet.  They said the same thing when I ordered the cool grey XI's from them.  I received both pairs.  But they waited until Thursday to ship them.
