**** THE OFFICIAL "I'M TIRED OF THE AIR JORDAN 1" COMPLAINT THREAD ****

[vegatts]

if you read through all these replies you can see why JB keeps releasing more and more 1s. Even though people are saying they dont like a lot of them severalpeople named off 3-5 colorways that they did like/buy. And its not like everyone is picking the same colorways either. My point is, even the people that dontlike the idea of so many 1s still will buy them if they like a particular colorway. Thats pretty good, I dont think JB is expecting people to buy everycolorway, but if they release a huge variety they are bound to appeal to almost everybody with a few of them.

I never understood the hate with releases you dont like. If I dont like a shoe I simply dont buy it and it really never affects me. I'm not a huge fan ofthe 1 so most colorways dont impress me. I bought the BMP and the metallic green. If another colorway comes along that I like maybe I will get it. If a bunchof colorways come out that I dont care for, well, who cares?

Yea, because everybody who buys new released Jordan 1's also buys SB's, right?

 

[ckauffman23]

my hook up at footaction said their jordan rep said the jordan 1's keep coming because they are a popular with latino's.

 

[raposo927]

I'm not sick of the 1s I just don't like some of the ideas they create for them

 

[aj27526]

every now and then a few nice ones come out...you just have to weed through the 'grey areas'

I feel the same way...

they can keep pumping them out for all I care...

I'm not going to settle, I need to be 100% satisfied with the product before purchasing...

DAAAMMNN LOL

school em

 

[Magic33]

I don't care if they release a million I's

I just wonder if they're selling. All the I's I've seen released besides the Hare's have been on sale.

I don't see people in I's. I understand why they release Fusions, I see people in Fusions all day.

So where did someone get schooled?

Whether the guys statement is factual or not, it does make sense. If you're just an average kid looking for a Nike/Jordan with an 80's look to it thento an uneducated teenager they're gonna see the swoosh and just assume it's another 80's type shoe. These are the shoes that dunk wearing peoplewould be looking for. They are basically the same shoe.

 

[slk 102]

too much 1's release already

 

[msheraton23]

i like the fact that they are starting to release old school jordans in different colorways that are not black and red. i have more blk/red shoes than i couldever need. but they should not just always do 1s

B U N K ! ! ! !

People in Fusions probably see the AJ1 and think its a Dunk or whatever.... and this dude callin me board police but definitely weighed in on the thread....

magic1978 you are a prime example of why Brand Jordan takes a collective crap on all the OG-heads.... you see peeps in Fusions but not 1's ? ? ? ?

You probably wear fakes cuz . . . .

[closetcollector]
