I'm not in any way supporting or defending any of the crap retro quality we get, especially some of the stuff JB pulls, but as far as general build quality goes, even in the '90s and mid-2000s I always had to do this. Build quality was rather suspect back then, too. My friends, teammates and I had to return so many Nikes and Jordans due to outsoles ripping off at the heel, midsoles peeling from uppers, sloppy/bad glue jobs etc. It was so consistently bad that I remember my dad at one point trying to convince me to switch from Nike altogether. I also remember that with the original Zoom Flight 95s, I had the guys in the store laughing because I ended up going through every single pair in my size and having to mix and match a left and right shoe to find two without really bad glue jobs on the heel that I could tell were going to mean the outsole ripping off after about two games of basketball.

I'd love for Nike to bring back some of these cleats in a GR. I always wanted those Mercurials but my mom would never get anything over $50 (I'm not mad at her lol). I figured the OG Mercurials were based off of the Air Max 97s too.

Hey guys check out your local Shiekhs shoes.
Went to my store and asked he said they sold out but he could order them. He ordered them for me. Size 14 was the size I got.

Thank you for sharing that valuable information. Now I have another reason to go out and get some 97s. I felt there were similarities and I hope that previously pictured pair sees the light of day
