If a person is poor, don't look at them in disgust, but if they are rollin' in the mall with a Bentley, and they come out the car with some Jamaica colored 4's then you should be disgusted. That is just my thought on why people wear fake Jordan etc.
You would have to talk to him but he also did my 3's into another laker colorway and it was only 75 bucks.Originally Posted by fvargas2000

I agree with this but let me add
#5) The fake sites are coming up with colorways that are [color= rgb(102, 255, 102)]more appealing[/color] to the young bucks and ppl who are tired of all the old c/w and styles.
I had a Louie Vuitton leather cap that I bought from a boutique store in downtown Mnpls before I even really knew what LV was, much less how to spell it. I was in 10th or 11th grade but boy I was fresh. This was the time when it was cool to cut all sorts of crazy shapes, logos, and designs into the back of people's heads and when Public Enemy was the joint. Anyway, I digress, but LV and Gucci was just starting to get popular........in their early stages of life. Now look at how popular LV is these days. You can get LV and Gucci print J's. JB put out that jacket and it was named the Gucci print V for the Olives. JB, like every company should, takes notice of all this trend following, too. You have to cater to your demographic. Why do you think they made the Fusions in such wacky florescent colorways? JB sees that ppl want the fake looking stuff, hence JB is now making authentic products that look fake.
I've always said a company/business HAS to reinvent themselves if they want to continue thriving. JB is no different and if they don't do something (aka 6 Rings, Oly 6s, Fusions), they will eventually die. It's a simple business standard. Change, re-evolve or die.
