If you look at next years releases, you would think wow, what a great year of releases, probably the best year of releases. But if you look after that, all most people see is garbage releases with everything but the retroes releasing. Most people on here think that the brand hasn't made a lot if not any good non-retro shoes. In my opinion, there has been a lot of good if not great releases that weren't retroes. The B'Loyals, Rising Stars, Ol' Skools, and 9.5's and the upcoming 12.5's (Based on retroes but titled as team jordans). Just because they don't sell out within a day, doesn't mean they're not getting purchased. Team Jordans are the most popular basketball shoes besides Nikes releases. Some of them even look like some of the retroes. Examples:
B'Loyal - Retro 6-7 look with the clear sole, air pack, and the shape.
Rising Stars - Retro 10-11 look with the way the laces are laced, and some other little tiny details.
Ol' Skools - Retro 2 look with the shape and the color placement.
9.5 and 12.5 - Obvious...
Most of you think that the brand will just fall after 2008 and won't be like what it used to be before 2008. So my point is that the retroes aren't the only good looking shoes that JB makes and the fact that the brand won't do as well without the retro releases, but they will do better than most people expect and well enough to keep the brand going and will come up with ideas to make us buy some non-retro shoes in some way. That's just my opinion but if you have a different opinion feel free to share it.
