I think the abundance of paint on the Overtown midsoles contribute to some of the quality issues. Very sticky and I guess has a tendency to rub etc. That being said I think we've only seen a few pairs like shaw333 whereas you can pick an entire stockroom of JB releases with these issues.
Also the leather, while premium, definitely is prone to some of the scratches etc, since it's softer etc, compared to the more cardboard synthetic/plastic. IMO.
All that being said still a shame any pairs were received this way. Were they from the WoW site?
Yea they were so it won't be hard to exchange but it seems like this is a trend at this point 1s and 1.5s were some of the highest quality shoes I've ever put on my feet. Then something about the 2s were a little off too me. Like the announcement yellowing. The yoth's had a lot of suede issues on the pairs I've seen and fading. And now these 2.5s seem to be a little lower than the 2s. It's just a trend I'm starting to notice.
D wade is my favorite player so I will still buy 1 of every release no matter what, but like I said before I just hope they don't speed up production to supply America with a ton of each release, especially since the last couple releasing are sitting and the heat lost some hype with bron jumping ship.I've just seen this before even, with reebok, when each release got a little worse than before and then you end up with Jb 2011/2012 products
I hear you on that bro. Hopefully you can get a quick exchange. I remember reading in the ESPN article that Li-Ning needed to focus on their home (Chinese) market before really making an effort to hit the US market in a big way.
I LOVE Wade and his line and while I also like that I can cop these last few releases with ease when I'm ready...the $99 clearance from wayofwadeshoes and recent fanatics sales don't really scream "come dominate this market" so IMO I don't really see them trying to up their US game. That and since many of these releases are easily available overseas, US buyers have them before US drops. I wonder how many bit on Red Leopards for $320 shipped and then WoW had them for $200 retail. There are a few kinks that need ironing out...
The 2.5/Encore moniker is the general Playoff line. The 2.5/Encore Low is denoted on those pairs. So there's a 2.5/Encore... and a 2.5/Encore Low.
No. It's technically the Playoff/Elite version of the 2.
I would direct message him next time. If a mod saw this you may be banned.@someone12345 I got a pair for sale sz 9

Yes sir patience is KEY! And since I've seen deals hang for a bit I don't mind waiting. Only thing I waited too long in were some snow leopards in my size on eBay. Started at $600, relisted a few times down to $300. Went to buy and BOOM...scooped up. Oh well someone got a deal.
And I think it was shaw333 who mentioned his Red Leopard price, but I was talking about Sole Warehouse I think. Early Red Leopards for like $320 shipped or something. So sometimes the initial drop hurts.
Yea they are bought a pair of Warrior 2's from them and have no complaints.Any places that still have TeamNoSleeps?
also, is this site legit?

Glad to see I'm not the only one who prefers the 1's over the 2's.Yea they were so it won't be hard to exchange but it seems like this is a trend at this point 1s and 1.5s were some of the highest quality shoes I've ever put on my feet.

It seems like ever since the release of the 2's, there are a lot more people into this line. Which isn't a bad thing, since pairs are more available and at more locations also.
I also feel like the design went down. The 1's, and especially 1.5s, had a great simple design. The 1.5s built upon the 1's by adding some ventilation on the side, which I like.
The 2's I never really felt, and the 2.5s look unappealing to me. There has been 1 colorway that I am looking into though, the Iceman Lows.
Anyone know a site that sells them except for hibasketballshoes? Price on there is $210 shipped.
