I have love Jordan's since I was a kid, I am now 28yrs old. My parents would not buy them for me because of the price. We never lived pay check to paycheck or had a cash flow problem. My dad was the sole bread winer and he was very smart with the money. Once I started to make my own money I ran out andbought Jordans. As a kid they were cool and didn't not make you look bad at school. Now that I am older i understand why some people get out of the Jordan.my reason is simple. I work hard for my money. Jordans are sitting on the shelves now. Yeah a hot release may sell out but its all hype not. Jordans dont evenhold there retail value any more. The quality is sub-par. I can keep a pair of kicks a while but the kicks are not lasting and its clearly manufacturing.Lastly, but not least Micheal Jordan has been know to be a a%$hole. I no longer will support a guy that treats his fans as if they are not the cause of hissuccess.
Update: My intial reason for this thread was mainly my disgust with the quality of my kicks. I have a pair of retroed Black 10's. I wear my kicks onlycasual nothing else. I put these on one day and the sole falls right off. These arent the only pair that are still in excellent shape and fallen apart. My dadtried to clown and I tried to come back with "nothing lasts forever". Then he calls me to his closet to show me his Ballys for when was my age. Hestill wear them after 20+ years. Lets not talk about his Gucci, Prada, Versace and a bunch of other stuff he has had for years.
