It seems to be a 10-15 year wait on retro treatment but that was in an entirely different climate ..... But the shoe bubble done popped they can't move anything the way they were 2-3 years ago. For some reason I feel like the 13-20 year olds would be all over 16-23 models cuz that's what their older brothers and cousins and local hustlers had when they was younger. Basically why most of us like what we like. ive had a feeling when they decide they got all they can outta 11 Christmas releases for a while that they would make the 17s the Christmas release but that's just WILD speculation
Thats pretty much how I see it as well. I'd just put the age group somewhere between 20-28. It would be cats who these were either their first or what who they looked up too was rocking. But I don't see cats in their 30's and def not teenagers, who is the group being targeted on most releases, eating these up. And I'm sure we'll see a return of these models eventually.
The briefcase on the XVII's is dope as hell. Only pair I own, and their mad comfy, is the white/red pair with the case that I caught a few years back for $45 shipped.
