Wow the more pics i see the more concerned i am at my pair when they arrive. These seem to have the kind of widespread flaws as if they were a massive GR release.

It's maddening to see that quality control issues are still a problem when the whole point of this Remastering Initiative was to improve quality control and materials. I got one pair of near-flawless Metallic V's, but the second pair that arrived shortly after were a letdown. I have high hopes for this release, but I too am starting to worry about opening tomorrow's shipment.
Google search, "Exclusive: Jordan Brand Remastering Retro Line Beginning Spring 2015", and give that article a read.

Why in the world would they spend money doing that if the shoe will sell out regardless

The Nike Air Ships obviously
Did 2013 drop in price? Because overall those are still way more limited although worse quality than these
Just curious
Are they or is it the demand for this release crazy?
I've seen all these places get the 16's but the stock wasn't to great I wasn't there for the 13 release but if numbers were similar to royals then I know the struggle

the real main point of the "remastered initiative" was to make more money off of Jordan Brand , which nike is doing. Jordan 1s used to cost $80 in the early 00s
now the price has doubled..

Did you receive a delivery text or just receive them? I am wondering because if not, ill just check tomorrow regardless.

JB made it sound as if they're not making any extra money off the price increase because it's due to the extra expenses of heightened quality control and better materials.

I'm betting the DMP's will sit at the bottom of this list.

with regards to my earlier comments
its just I have a personal limit or rule you could say that I will NEVER pay more than $100 over retail to a reseller.
as crazy as it souns its just a personal choice and until others follow suit and do the same...resell prices will continue to climb because there is always a sucker out there willing to pay more...
but ya...trying to find a size 13 or 13.5 for around 260 is probably going to get me **** all

I think it looks a little "weird" because the 16's in that pic are factory unlaced and not tied up like the 13's are....makes it look chunky.....

Mine's 4/13-6/4/16 from overseas. But the dates aren't really an indicator anymore, you can get different dates on each shoe in a pair.
Oh, and they're genuine leather according to the material tag..

This comparison pic is really dumb since you don't even have the '16's laced up. No **** theyre gonna look chunkier

I'm gonna lace one of mine tight to see if the silhouette changes much.
