Tough to say. I wear 11.5 in Air Max 90 and 1. 12 in Mowabb and Airmax 95. 12.5 in Huaraches. I would lean towards advising you to get the 12.5 but if your 2004's are a little snug and you like the fit then maybe go with the 12? 12.5 is awful hard to come by! But PM me for a special tip!

Damn these newer pics and that on foot pic look better than the earlier pairs I saw on the Japanase IG pages. Almost tempted to pay that inflated retail and cop now but I'm gonna hold out and try to stay strong...

I hear you man.
But I have to say that I think criticizing the price is slightly misguided in today's market. That's probably an opinion that I will be outnumbered 10:1 on... but if you look at other brands like Adidas and even Y3 they are charging more for less technology. The tubular runner and the Qasa was a prime example of that. I'm sure a lot will disagree but at some point it will start to cost more money to utilize retro technology than producing whatever is current in mass.

that 180 retail is OD but thats how it is these days....got lucky on ebay and got this pair for $35 shipped but no og box
seller was mad cool and it's good to see sneakerheads in the game still cuttin deals. if it weren't for him, these '15 mowabb would have been a pass just like the neon am95 unless they dropped ~120
2008 QS...shape not as bad as i thought, toebox looks right. just the midsole color is a dark grey instead of the light cement grey like the OGs

You know what, based on that I am now rethinking my hostility towards the price. I love too many brands and models that I only will buy what I extremely like to the point for dropping retail as soon as it is available. I also keep the collection small and will not go over more than 10+ pairs. This shoe will for sure get worn extensively and it is a all-time favorite so the price does not seem so crazy anymore. Hell, 2 weeks ago I bought these at a slight discount but they are still not cheap:
If I love them and they will get in heavy rotation, why not? These will not be back anytime soon with Nike's retro schedule.

Nice on foot pics up there. These look pretty promising.
What's retail on the newest retro? Sorry if it was already stated. Gonna try to pick these up locally next week if they're still around.
*Edit* Is retail really $180 now?

Ordered on the 5th off nike and it's saying they are preparing the order still, infuriating.

Didn't see these at any of the local spots or big stores when I looked..some stores said they're not getting these at all..maybe that had something to do wit the price hike,low production numbers can make costs go up.
Same for me, contact them for a 15% coupon and complain about the delay. Apparently the warehouse is experiencing delays...
These shipped to very few spots in the US. It's possible some spots haven't received orders yet, but when I picked these up the store owner told me it had nothing to do with Tier 0 but it was a "Premium" store release only.

So that gives me one last spot to check.If that's the case,makes sense why they didn't even have a display anywhere in any mall around me.

NDC supposed to throw them back up again at some point.
It may be these are more limited than originally thought.
I definitely think they are as limited as we are worried about. 11 years since the last retro too right?

After last release and them hitting outlets for like $40, I think Nike wisened up and release these in limited numbers to satisfy the niche/cult following hence the big markup. People who love this model will copp and I think Nike priced it just at that point where they know people will bite. If you really want this shoe, I'd just pay the 180 in your size and rock them. I mean people pay the same price for Jordans with outdated tech, why not the same for these? No way am I justifying the price though, I tap out at like 120-150, just absurd (to me) to pay that much.

Nah these came out in 08. Those were QS too, although these don't seem to be. Nike will put these back up again soon Im sure.

My brother fed me some wrong Intel..couldn't find them any where locally..
I was almost certain these would sit locally..but probably won't on the Internet..or aleast be harder to obtain when they finally do go on sale..
