How are the prices gonna calm down on these? I've never seen a supply /demand so screwed up on a JB release in a while. This is not, I repeat, NOT, a hyped shoe release like some gimmick limited release colorway thing JB pulls. This is a classic colorway that has not been released in over a decade from a Company that releases the same damn shoe in the same damn colorway every couple of years, yet for some crazy reason, they have decided to not release this CLASSIC non gimmicky, no hypebeast colorway in over a decade and then make the numbers limited?
This is the kind of shoe that Jordan enthusiasts who were Jordan enthusiasts in the 90's would love to have 2 or 3 pairs to keep for nostalgic reasons.
Considering all the above, unless there is a substantial restock coming our way soon, I cannot see these dropping in value. I think some of the insane auctions where these shoes hit $350+ won't re occur, but seeing these go for $250 to $300 in the future in the absence of a big restock seems pretty realistic to me.

This type of release is key to Nike's success. Now going forward everyone will think the next new releases will be limited so they go in droves and scoop them up. Good marketing plan on Nike's part but sucks for those who actually want the shoe for the shoe.

If you guys think about it, Nike USA is a bunch of jerks trolling us. They released on Nike Europe website, so why not in the USA. They like to ## with you guys

This release has been really crazy. I hope JB has something up their sleeve cause they got people doing things they said they would never do.........drop $200+ on 1s.
It is what it is though.

thats what they want, so they can justify another increase in jordan 1 prices. the next OG colorway will probably be 160-175
