Never owned a pair of Jordans but I may break down and get some for my daughter. She just want some J's, she doesn't care which ones.

Preordered mine. Got em yesterday. Im strongly considering flippin em. But dammit its a beautiful shoe.


I refuse to wait in them dumb ass lines. I never understood y people will stand in a 100+ person line knowin the store got 50 pairs of the shoe at most.



The other thing, how accountable is nike in all of the crime thats associated with these shoes. Granted its not they fault nikkas is nikkas but y release such a small quantity? Its not as if the lines wouldnt be as crazy. But everyone would get their shoe.

Nike's attempt at Exclusivity is perpetuating the violence

I agree a little with your point about production, but you also gotta consider that some people DONT want to pay for them no matter the price ,so people are going to get robbed regardless.

Thats what anything tho. Alot of these fights aren't robberies. They stem from nikkas in a line, stessed out thinking they not gon get they pair. People cutting. nikkas tryna be slick etc.

more shoes, less ambition towanna wait in a line for hours.



Bammas still gon get robbed tho

I gave my brother the 11/12 CDP pack as a gift when he graduated over the summer. He busted out the 11s to go to Hooters with some friends last month. One of the waitresses seemed to be giving him extra attention, and when they left she handed him something.
He thought she gave him her number, but it was actually a note. She thought he had the early hookup on the 11s, so she was trying to get acquainted.
Did not know shoes were that serious.
