It would make since to stop buying but Rarely does it happen, I went to get the charcoal VII and had to get my money back due to the tongue being mispelled My N was a I(JordaI), Loose threads from the seams looked like someone already hooped in them but only on one shoe....This was at FOOTACTION!! The manager is a collector and even said this is a continuing issue. Shoes Creasing after a walk in the mall on first wear, leather being swapped out for dura. but prices steadliy rising.From what I've noticed it seems like every time a shoe is re-retroed people rant about the quality of the shoe and claim the one before it was "high quality" . My only problem with that is that I am now seeing shoes get called "high quality" that were considered "low quality" at the time of their release. For example, the Fire Red IV's last month. They have been said to be the one of the worst quality Jordans to be released in quite some time (I agree with that statement. I even had to exchange one of my pairs because it came scuffed and the leather was all chewed up). My only problem with that is that people then ranted about wanting the "high quality of the Mars IV's" from 2006. But when the Mars IV's came out, all I ever read was how bad the quality was. The same goes for the Metallic V's from 2007 to 2011, couple of XII models, and the list can go on. My question is, what is the expectation? I ask because it seems to be a moving target through the years. Also, if the quality is THAT bad, why are you still willing to cop, and cop, and cop, etc.? If you're truly unsatisfied with the product, stop buying it.
Want them just to be cool.
lack of knowledge/never owned quality.
I COMPLETELY AGREE WITH THIS!From what I've noticed it seems like every time a shoe is re-retroed people rant about the quality of the shoe and claim the one before it was "high quality" .

Not really cuz, you're a sneakerhead you buy shoes because you love it, not because you know everyone is going to get them, you pick and choose what you want to buy because you want them not because the next man is getting them. At least that the kinda sneakerhead i am.i love how hypebeasts is used for everyone that buys shoes these days.
guess i should be offended because i buy jordans now so im a hypebeast instead of a shoe head

Somebody definitely called you a hypebeast huhI live in Chicago and Jordan's have always been mainstream way back to the late 80's/90's. The shoes sold out here instantly everytime. What's happening today is still par the course imo and I don't have a problem with it. I have a real issue with people being critical of how or why another person wants to spend their own money. The word "Hypebeast" is the gayest sh*t ever. If you buy Jordan's, you obviously like, admired or wanted to be like Jordan right? So by definition you're no better than the "Hypebeast" who buys J's to be like his friends or just to fit in. Overwhelmingly the same dudes crying about the quality of J's are the same dudes mad at the "Hypebeast" for buying up all the shoes lol. It's just hate imo. Cat's are mad that it's harder to cop nowadays that's all. It's nothing funnier than hearing some dude ranting about how these "Hypebeast" didn't even watch Jordan play or their just buying it because they want to be cool etc. So what if they didn't see Jordan play? So what if they want to buy shoes to be cool? Why does it hurt your feelings that they want to buy Jordan's for whatever reason? Oh I get it you think you're entitled to a shoe lmao.
Never been called a hypebeast in my life homie but if I was I really wouldn't give a sh*t. What does that mean to me?Somebody definitely called you a hypebeast huh
