call it blasphemous but those reverse infrareds are better than the released version.

I agree.Aquamanjay_ call it blasphemous but those reverse infrareds are better than the released version.
That is blasphemyAquamanjay_ call it blasphemous but those reverse infrareds are better than the released version.
It would not surprise me if those drop next before a true reissue. Id be in.That is blasphemy
I'm pretty sure Gentry (or somebody on Gentry's team) is defending him in a debate with me on SoleCollector
Some anonymous account kept defending Gentry and at one point he said "The cost for me to produce a Jordan in 1998 is substantially lower then it would be in 2018."
Maybe I'm reading too much into it, but if I can confirm it's actually him I'll post back here.
I need a true OG fire red 3s and white cementBe honest, you know he’s going to pull the plug on NA retros for AJ3 and beyond. At least I don’t think he can do this for OG 1 retros as those releases are simply too popular nowadays.

If he makes stuff more limited than what it is I'm done .
It seems like GH simply made sure JB was producing garbage low quality retros with weird changes here and there and no Nike Air whatsoever to the public so that he could be happy with his own collection and earn some money with it. He says he cares about OG collectors.. yeah right. The problem is those are just minorities and a lot of people who grew up in the 80s&90s once actually owned OGs and don't have them anymore because they actually wore them. Furthermore, there are people that wanted to purchase OGs but couldn't because they were too young to afford them. OGs are nostalgic to a lot of people and many young generations who became a fan of MJ and his legacy want to be a part of it. But he's a selfish individual so he wants to ruin retros just to make himself feel special. Selfish individual like him who doesn't care about the brand image and major consumers' demand for his own good should never have a huge role within the brand imo.
True collectors do not care about image. They don't care about prestige. If making money is his goal solely then he will not succeed in the long run. The Brand is founded on nostalgia. The past keeps JB relevant. Period. They need to understand and respect that. You can tell all the stories you want. Just tell them correctly.It seems like GH simply made sure JB was producing garbage low quality retros with no Nike Air whatsoever to the public so that he could be happy with his own collection and earn some money with it.

good Lord, that NT denim
My first prediction is that OG branded 1’s are going back in the chamber.
The og collectors want new retrosThe OG shoes are 20-30+ years old now and are unwearable unless you try sole swapping... He better not use that excuse again "for the OG collectors"
Adidias and Yeezy could jump over the jumpman. Number 4 spot, that is where they are heading to. What Gentry did the last time around won't fly this time around.So let's say he put all retros in the vault for a yr to push the other shoes what will be the outcome lol
