The young kids from the hood seem to be the kids that make up the focus groups that Gentry mentioned that went "woah" when he showed the some of the stuff.
This is the exact problem, Gentry is marketing to the sorts of kids that make up these focus groups, and these kids don't want the plainess of the OGs, hence why all the quality and nice colors get scrapped and we get some of the messes that release.
And that is another reason why Fakes will be right they are if this keep up witch is sadOriginally Posted by DaNiKeRhiNo

But in Gentry's eyes
I.S.S - Sole Collector > Niketalk
Hate it or Love it
It is where this man stands..
What are your thoughts NT and if your able to speak from the heart in a non bias way..
Why do you think G takes this stance.
Is it deserved?

you have a good point but say if niketalk didn't buy any jays for the rest of the year, the shoes would still be sold out form the regular joe from up the street picking up the new jays. This method would only work if say all of LA and NY didn't buy jordans and protested them. (which you and I know is highly unlikely)

I don't think the mold of the shoe is his fault, but he does give us a great replica of OGs we want.
If NT ran JB it would go out of business. You can't retro the same thing every year. You can't. NT probably doesn't even make up 5% of the total sales.
