I tried all over the place to pick the retro's up, but wasn't able to. I'm thinking I might break out my black unworn originals that I picked up a few years back instead. What do you guys think?

Why? Those, more or less, will fall apart...I tried all over the place to pick the retro's up, but wasn't able to. I'm thinking I might break out my black unworn originals that I picked up a few years back instead. What do you guys think?
Black ones are releasing soon anyways...

Yup.... I'm wearing my 10.5 today usually an 11. Got an 11 at home which is fine but would prefer to get my hands on another 10.5.

Well, I wasn't able to pick up the white retro's so I highly doubt I'll be able to get the black ones either. It's tough not living anywhere near a large city that has a bunch of shoe joints. The local mom and pop that I usually use didn't get these. I even tried at 7:55 on Reebok only to have my order cancelled later in the day. I hear you though on the possibility of coming apart. Both the leather and rubber is still really soft. I appreciate the input!

Strange how people say these run big compared to 'Jordans'...
Which Jordans do you mean? Cause some Jordans run big compared to Jordans.
Got a size 10 in all my shoes.
- Bred XI's half a size small
- Playoff XII's fit perfect
- Olympic XI's half a size big
So if you compare these to Jordans, please say to which ones
Hvent gotten the chance to check my own pair yet: waiting for me at home, on holiday...

Wow, that's uncalled for. They most definitely are mine! The only place they've been worn is around my house. Remember they are 20+ years old. Thanks for the criticism, too bad it's not true.

the dee browns have the little square next to the pump. Just how it was back in the day.
Just pump, and when you want to release he air press press the release valve. It's to the right of the pump. Feel around, you'll feel it.

Second pair came from YCMC yesterday and this pair definitely has some imperfections. I'm not one to complain about quality but the white rubber looks a little dingy and in the pic above you can see the a "plug" missing in the black paint.
These shoes definitely run true to size. I'm an 11 but can wear a 10.5 in Jordan's nowadays. The size 11 in the attacks fits perfectly without being pumped up.

My pair from KL came in today and I have to be honest, I was very disappointed. When it came to manufacture the pair I bought, it was abundantly clear that no eff's were given about the craftsmanship of the shoe. There was scuff marks on the right toe box like someone was playing kickball with rocks. With the paint and glue stains all over the place, my excitement went from 10-0. I would feel bad moving these for retail because of it looked like I did a horrible job of trying to restore these. So I boxed them up and sent them back to KL, I'm sure someone will appreciate it down the road. I was interested in the blue/black pair but I think I'm passing on those now. Hopefully the Shaqnosis is put together a little better.

You're not allowed to say you're selling shoes in here, but you coulda always browsed through the last few pages to see who missed out on your size and sent them a pm. Or added it to your signature. Coulda let whoever know the situation and condition of the shoes.... Probably coulda hooked someone up for retail.
