Retail should be $150 maybe $160. Production costs haven't gone up that much for 2010.
Even that's a high cost but they'll sell regardless

This seems like the realistic case.........but a lot can change between March and November (that's 9 months in-between)

Based on the Maroon 6's and White Cements retail will be $220, though we might see like a $15 end of the year increase.

If the Black Metallic 5s (also releasing with "Nike Air" branding this year) sell out as good as the White Cement 4s, don't be shocked if Nike/Jordan Brand "have an incentive" to give it that ridiculous $15+ price boost they always do toward the end of the yearBased on the Maroon 6's and White Cements retail will be $220, though we might see like a $15 end of the year increase.

If they raise them to 235, I'm out... I need to save money to travel at the end of the year/next year.

I wouldn't be surprised at all if JB slowly rises the price of NA retros just to see if there is a limit people will pay. Sadly I don't think they've reached it. People still doubling up at 220.

I'd be really surprised if they didn't do that. Everyone said $200 was too much for the 88s but now here we are already at $220 and like you said people still double. They might wait for the space jams for the next price hike but I wouldn't be surprised to see $250 by next year.

I wouldn't be shocked if the "annual price hike" actually starts with the Remastered Bred 1s coming out in the rumored September/October date slots............then we'll see how receptive the community is to the price hikes

Yeah especially given that retros start at $190 for GRs.. Look at the GR 2s released recently, they're all sitting at $190.

And see i'd forgotten about both the Black Metallic V's and the Bred 1's. Don't think there's a solid chance of the V's being over $220. Still too early in the year, but if they sell well enough we should definitely expect an increase. Jordan 1's are typically priced lower than other Retros as it is though. While I could see a price hike I couldn't see it getting to $220. Haven't picked up a 1 in a while, what's the current price for them? $160? $170? I'd guess Breds with "Nike Air" would go for $180-$200.

That is how much the UNC 1s went for, which were the last "OG colorway" released for NA branded Retro 1s.
Yeah, I picture the possibility of a $180+ price tag for the Remastered Bred 1s..........especially after how crazy everyone went when it was announced that they were going to remastered the infamous Bred 1s

This.. Price hikes for what..?? Yall don't think they're beating us up enough..?? $190-$220 its ridiculous to add another 15-20 dollars to either of those numbers.... On top of that taxes we'll be damn near at $300 for sneakers...

It's not about being ridiculous it's about making money. They aren't mutually exclusive. Nobody wants it but it's coming if the demand stays strong.

Not that anyone out here wants a price hike, but you've also gotta be realistic with yourself about how **** works out here.
