Man DON'T even feel bad about it @1978S....

Apart from ALL of us in this thread complaining, INCLUDING yours truly...

75%-90% of us are goin' to COP, in the end...

that's the problem right there. That mindset.

Been predicting this for years....
That's it, you have to have customers to have a successful business. If retros are pricing long time buyers out of the market there won't be "Nike Air" models sitting.. They will return to the previous quality to reduce the cost. Besides that, the new generation's interest will be lost once Js are not a hot commodity and every release is sitting in stores. The quality has always been sub par for the prices they charge. But with the cost scratching near rent or a car payment- people will become even more selective in their purchases. Corporate greed at it's finest..
Jordan Brand may soon come to realize that the opposite is true. They are lucky to get our money. They are lucky to have been getting our money for 30 years. I cannot wait until adidas, under armour or even just customers tiered of passing top dollar push JB put of the mainstream sneaker market.

I'm optimistic and I don't believe anything lasts forever, not even the hype around Jordan's. It a shame

Been saying this for the last couple years, it will happen.... I'm 31 and lived in the era when sports cards were the big collectible trend that everyone got into---- they overproduced all cards from that era and very few are worth any money
 
Y'all remember these Rainbow 4 samples?
 ​
 ​
 ​
 ​
I know they're probably HORRENDOUS to most...
 ​
Not to me though, but do y'all see the direction the netting is goin' in?
 ​
How it matches the direction of the netting on the tongue.
 ​
If the 2016's netting have the same direction, they'll be straight IMHO.
 ​
I pray to GOD that they have CLOSE to this shape.

No, it better not have that wack angle on the netting. That's the main thing everyone wants changed aside from the toe box. 

​It doesn't match the tongue, thats whats wrong with it. Its angled back.
 
Being that JB has improved the shape of 1s, 10s, 7s, and 8s to look closer to their OG or first wave of retros, the fact that the 4s have not changed at all is where the issue lies. Especially at the price point. Again, the shape bring the same distracts from the resurgence of the Nike air and being everyone is fussing about.
 
something still seems off with the cement and speckling of these china pairs. when i look at the 99's and og's they actually remind me of pavement - not seeing that with these. i hope the real ones look better.

Yes, I know the netting sucks...

I'm talking about the angle it's in, and yes it does match the tongue.

Maybe you're seeing something I'm not, I don't know...
 
Hoping these are huge GR, which they should be.

Don't wanna drop $220+ but I love white cement and had to red rid of both my 2012 pairs

Same here. Soon as I heard they were releasing, I unloaded both of mine. They were pretty uncomfortable. Hoping these are better.
 
I understand wanting to sell them before the price plummets as no one will want them once the 2016s are available.  HOWEVER, you guys are pretty confident to think that you're going to be able to get one of the new pairs....wish I could have that confidence/connections!

right? why not all the models smh
 
Another pic of the 2016's I just found...

I hope these come with the plastic Nike Air Hang tag, like the '88 3's.

I haven't seen it any of the pictures yet...

It's the least they could do charging us $220+ for em...
