My pair comes in from GOAT tomorrow.

didn't know they were based in Socal.
 
 
Sorry but cherry 11s really weren't all that lol...

I HUMBLY DISAGREE
 

I think Jordan Brand purposely makes these bad cws so they will head to the outlets and sell out there. This allows them to increase foot traffic into the outlets as well (notice how they never sell discounted mens retros on NDC?).

I sure hope so, dropping garbage one week then trash the next week is eyebrow raising.
 
Im surprised how the Black metallic 5s seemed so hyped before RD but sat in stores like paperweights... 
 
Those 11 Lows were garbage, metallic 5s garbage, M6s garbage

Nostalgia bait for the dinosaurs
This post just reminded me why I hate everything about 90s babies LMAO. You bash 11 lows and metallic 5 but camp for OG 1s...talking about Nostalgia lmao. But let a hipster brand endorse one of those shoes and you will be crying about the availability.

GET THEM, also only retros I wanted this year was the flu games and I got those.  I wanted the Bred's but I missed at retail which means I won't be getting them.

Yeah this is true but buying grails is much harder and much more expensive than picking up a GR. Also, the $220 retail on good GRs is really irritating.
finding them for a good price is literally 90% of the pleasure I got out of owning most of the shoes I got. Then I wised up and realized sneaker "culture" and sneaker collecting wasn't practical for me post mid and post college. so i dumped 90% of my kicks and only kept the ones i would wear. now sneaker "collecting" to me involves shuffling old kicks out and new ones in.

long story short stop complaining about the shoes you dont want and focus on the ones you do. itll save you a lot of time and a hell of alot more keystrokes.

Agree.  I already got rid of many kicks but now I need to unload even more.  Maybe I need to be like @hipstermike  and just keep 3 pairs of jays to cover my bases lol.  I rarely wear my 11s these days just for example.  
 
i have seen posts on facebook in which DTLR and City gear have restocked the black and red 1s....hopefully prices drop
 
Jordan Brand designers are competing with each other to determine who can make the most terrible, uninspired colorway this year probably

I hear you. Keystrokes help ease the Ls but, you're right, it does become counter productive.
