Heavily on the fence.
$220 is an awful lot for 25 year old technology when we just got the XII "Flu Games" for $190 with 18 year old technology.
If price was sub-$200 would be an easier choice.

ACCURACY LEVELS… GOING ALL THE WAY UP… I NEVER SAW ANYONE CALL THE V'S 99'S BUT I WOULD HAVE BEEN CONFUSED TO HEAR SUCH A THING TOO...
A lot of people call them 99's because of the production date on the tag.

The 2014 Black Infrared 6's hurt the ish outta of toes @ARK27. Even with extra shoe pads, they feel like they're cuttin' the **** outta them. The entire shoe is overall, too narrow & uncomfortable. I think I should've copped a 12 1/2. They look beautiful as hell though, outside of steel toe boot toebox.
The 2011 BM 5 were comfortable as **** IMO, but the ashy larry material got dusty with the quickness. The toe box creased terribly, also. Overall, they just didn't age well, the 3M was non existent... and the shoes were just made very cheaply.

No, it's also on the 5s. I don't know why because I wouldn't want to fold the tongue.

@dankenstien88.
Repped G.
I was just about the say the same thing. The same reason people say the OG Playoff 11's came out in 1995.... When they weren't released until March of 1996.

@SobeSoles Does this mean the pre-orders should be getting filled soon then?

Quoted for effectiveness.
That's one of those things that irk me as well, and I was forced to deal with it cause so many people don't really care to be that accurate.

They were tearing the game up when the Bling Blings dropped. Nickname makes perfect sense, just like Bred.

On a side note NikeTalk...
This is one of the BEST Non OG colorways, that JB's has come up with in quite sometime.

These would've been VERY welcomed.
Minus the horrendous "23" on the side of the shoes.
Or these @jaylaw15...

give me the green pair. I'm pissed at the sudden hype beast interest on those red shoes especially since they got hit sale racks when originally released. It seems like Kanye sill has people hyped over red shoes.

If they released again they'd be impossible to get with show folks even getting violent maybe. I'm too old for all that jazz

Those Vs are crazy. I'd be happy to see either in the near future especially I was super young when they first dropped and since then have skyrocketed in price.

I feel you @jaylaw15. That's was back when the overall hype for Jordan Retros just died. Nobody was messing with those packs at all, outside of the 2010 Infrared pack. The Raging Bull pack sat at malls here in Cincy, for like a year & a half. They even went on sale. I should've grabbed em, but I couldn't bring myself to pay $300+ for shoe back then.
I'd rather have the Olive 5's myself, honestly. I have to many black & red shoes already. Even though those are my favorite colors, I've been wanting those Olive 5's forever, & the Undefeated 4's. I wish those would re-retro badly. All they have to do is change the netting, & make it like the netting on the 2016 WC 4's. After that, get rid of the detachable "Flight" patch... So the OG's can remain sought after. That's just my opinion though.
