As much as I would want these back in my life, I'm going to pass. Had the OGs as a kid, which means they have high nostalgia value. Pretty satisfied with the Hare 7's I got this month and was fortunate to get a pair with decent craftsmanship, but the price tags of retros have been such a turn off.
Already knew that going into this whole "remastered" era that we'd have to be somewhat more selective of what we purchase. I just hope everyone who really wants these will get them, and that JB steps up on the craftsmanship in order to avoid anther Hare 7 debacle.
After this release, I don't see myself copping anything else until the UNC 1s in December.
I said the same thing. Only pair I've bought this year are the Black and Red 11 lows. I haven't wanted anything else but these and those.
no aqua 8s?you've got over a month and a half man, you can get em... you know you want too [emoji]128127[/emoji]
Not helping!
On the real, I kind of made it a subconscious goal to grab (OG) color ways that I didn't have as a kid.
Ex. Had the Bordeaux in 1992 -> Got Hare's in 2015; Had Powder Blue 10s in 1995 -> Got Double Nickels in 2015; Had Black Metallic 5s in 1990 (my first pair of AJs) -> Got Black Tongue 5s in 2013.
As for the 8s, I was fortunate to have both the Aquas and the Playoffs in 1993, so I may end up skipping the Aqua 8s as well.
ALTHOUGH I currently do not have an AJ8 in my 'rotation' at the moment........ hmmmmmm...
