Depends on the weather and planning of that day hehe.
If it's a day in the office and dry out I'm bringing them out! If not all my suede shoes will not see the fall/winter.
Black Infrared VI's returning in 2014. NO GM TALK!

Me too. And so far it looks sinking in that were gonna get that '12 Blk Cement IV/'10 Metallic V material. Not the legit durabuck.
Just can't win, man
JB needs to just drop 10 or so retros yearly just so they can get everything correct again.

What makes you think that they would **** up those few pairs any less?
Them ___s just don't have any room in their pockets to fit damns with all of that money in there.

So true. Also to be fair JB never has "gotten it right" since the OGs. This shoe in particalular has always released different and varied in materials used when compared to it's original conception. As do a lot, if not all retros. So I don't know what the big surprise is here. To me the shoe looks essentially how it should. With noticeable hints of Durabuck and very low cut nubuck. Bottom line they look good, far from anything to complain to much about. Especially if you're buying anyway.

The lower panel on the immediate upper of the shoe is clearly durabuck and the uppers outter panel including the toe box and heel is nubuck.

Edit: From the comparison video, it doesn't look as bad as the 2010 VI's and 2012 IV's.

Should JB reduce the amount of pairs they release yearly? Hell yeah! Will they however? Nope they're still selling out and maximizing profits. It's business, and consumers get the shaft. Plus at this point even if they did the shoes will still prolly come out poorly.

Yeah I hear you. Nothing is never too verbatim to the originals. But post 06, when JB released shoes every other month shoes always came out pretty solid. Hell, even retro+ colors were [emoji]128076[/emoji] and like you said, these do look oknot perfect. But anything from perfect should allow enthusiasts or consumers to speak their minds, and voice opinion.
