Official Air Jordan IV "Mars" post...

seen them yesterday, they ight, I still think there overrated
We rep da BAY
We don't rep California!!! - Turf Talk


I have flint VII's size 10.5,
get at me!
 
How are we to know the resell price of a shoe. We can however tell you that these will sell well, but production numbers are sky high, so you may still be able to get them for retail after saturday.
 
See this is why I asked what people have noticed about the Mars release that is poor quality. i really believe people are confusing poor quality with just a poor retro of an OG (assuming you believe this). Let me expalin by replying to a few things OGFreshReady stated as problems and not neccesarily quality issues.
Quote:
#1 problem - PLEATHER was used.Thinned out cheap leather.

I think everyone would agree that this leather isnt the best so yes this is a quality issue.
Quote:
#2 problem - Shape has been changed to a banana curve.

I dont think the shoes shape represents a quality issue, but more of a dissimilarity to the original fire reds.
Quote:
#3 problem - Mesh is straight instead of being slanted and tongue is thin..no padding.

The mesh not being slanted isnt a quality issue unless the mesh tears easily of yellows like that on the 04 wht/grn release
Quote:
#4 problem - No NIKE AIR back in original memory and homage.
5 problem - Spike Lee Mars Blackmon face used as a GIMMICK to sell the shoe.

These are definately not a quality issue and just another dissimilarity
Quote:
#6 problem - shoe is NOT for basketball used any more..it's now just for walking and to match clothing.
maybe it's just a shoe for the MOMENT,until the next release gets here.

I definately believe these shoes are not made for playing basketball. They are more of a novelty shoe and thus the mars blackmon on the side. If JB meant these shoes for ball playing they would have incorporated some of their new shoe technology into them. Just my opinion, not trying to sway anyone one way or the other. Feel free to comment, thats what we are here for



Now ever since i can remember i been poppin my collar, poppin poppin my collar............

how much will these cost if i dont get them on release day?


Maybe if you had a good question people would answer it. Now one could tell the future, so your question is pointless. There is a lot of hype right now. However I feel that once it is said and done these will be easy to get. I did my research A LOT of spots are getting these, in good numbers. Try going to the store instead of calling.

If you cant get them on RD wait 2 months to get them. These will be like a lot of recent retros, the price will spike this weekend since everybody will be running like a chicken without a head, resellers are going to cop a lot of multiples. Be patient and wait for the other major releases when the same re sellers will want their lunch money back to get the newest/hottest/latest retro (i.e. Military IV).

I could see this shoe selling for $175-180 this weekend, frankly people are dumb. However when the Military IV's roll around, look for the price to drop on these to the $125-150 range. There happy, your question has been answered.

see, you realize a jordan shoe isn't really for balling when jb themselves wouldn't dare make their players wear them (this applies to all the retros)

They look tuff up close... for these to be a "Super GR" like every one is saying... there arent that many floating around my mall... the local FNL and FL usually get a couple hundred of each GR but they each have like less than 50 pairs. The other stores prolly have about 1/3 of that amount.
" I see them all coming near...so i keep my credit clear. Cash in my pocket. Debit card in my wallet...Yeah"
 
^^ true story, most of the stores in my mall got one shoe for sizes 7.5 - 13.. good thing i got my pair on lock today... good luck to you guys on saturday
just my $.02
 
So how long are these gonna be around in NYC?

I'm hoping that i'll still be able to scoop up a pair on payday (Not this Thursday, the following) 5 days after the release.

yea the finishline here were i am is taking reserves so if you didnt reserve it by the end of the day today they wont even let you in the mall without your id to go 2 finishline. Lol thank god i work in the mall and reserved mines yesterday. Their are only 3 stores in Tallahassee that are getting them and it seems like they are all only getting like 3 in each size.
7MILE!!!
 
^ 12 am the morning of the release if I'm not wrong, but word of advice, don't order from the internet, because of what people's been sayinh about the shoe, I suggest u go to a store and see if they're really worth $115 of ur hard earned money to waste on

man why cant the stores in my area allow us to reserve? i went to my malls champs and finishline today to see what quantities they were getting an both stores will be getting 18-25 pairs. on the way into champs i see dude already had the mars on his feet. really shouldnt be a problem for me to get them cuz if one store has a line im goin right around to the next store.
 
yeah i got my pair reserved at champs. i dont think its gonna be a problem to cop the first day though
