my little one and i have been asked to be apart of a JB focus group, which i think is pretty damn awesome. details are small as of yet but it's forparents and children and we'll be trying on footwear and such. the reason why i am bringing this up besides being excited about it, is that i want togather some of your guys' thoughts/concerns to bring to the attention of the people running this thing. so they can hear from us, the consumers. it'll also help if you're a parent that buys JB product for your child(ren).
 
well i would say that they need to step up their game because they used to be known because of their great quality and now, their quality is #%%*$*.
 
just keep it real. Or maybe do the Jedi mind trick and dog the covered stuff so they can release that instead.
 
quality is a must...everyone is tired of being forced to buy horrible quality shoes just because we love the cw or shoe or missed the chance (for whateverreason i.e funds, had it as a kid, mom said no, etc.) to cop earlier.

instead of releasing more and more retro Is and fusions why not scrap them all together and take the time to release great quality retro sig shoes that we allwant (maybe 5-10 quality GR retros) I am tired of resellers so just give stores more amounts and let the internet be another outlet for people who missed out(just enough to kill reselling and let people get what they want without having to pay ridiculous prices)

keep things simple with retros (just like CDPs but of course better quality) but one at a time (no more packs after packs) and stay innovative with the newersig shoes like the 23s and maybe the 2k9s (havent decided yet).

NO MORE FUSIONS PLEASE I WOULD RATHER SEE INFLUENCED CWs OF REAL AF1s OR Js NOT "MUTANT THE HILL'S HAVE EYES" SHOES (even tho we all know JB isnot done with them at all) I guess all we want is for you not to fall in love with the fusions and start only releasing them in such great cws and neverrelease great sig shoes

Chris Paul is your new found face of Jordan, please give hime a better shoe than this upcoming release, he deserves better.



this is just a quick opinion...
 
1. More og colorway retros, (September Blues, Bordeauxs, etc.)
2. Quality
3. Give all fusions currently on the production line to the Asian sweatshop workers making them.
 
tell them to drop more kid shoes instead of keeping them exclusive to men sizes cause i'm trying to keep my son j'd up with the same ones that i gotlaced on my feet. the only j's i've seen for kids (preschool size) have been the team shoes basically
 
quality first and foremost. $150 for a retro that falls apart after a few wears is ridiculous. make sure you tell them how many heads stopped copping becauseof quality.

and tell them to make it stop with the damn fusions. if they can't tell, they're all over clearance racks.
 
give'em hell kadafi, nah j/k. the main issue is quality and
retroes that are more true to their og form

Just wondering, you know that after the store buys them for 53% of retail and after that JB doesn't care, their money is made. Its not like the shoes areon consignment with JB.
 
1.Quality!!!! If not made with good quality no need for a 150 170 price tag.
2. Stop all fusions.
3.And more Og and other great Colorways. no doo doo brown, cactus or any other crazy %#$ colors on the shoe.

why? the price is great. paying $310 for two pairs of shoes when a lot of people only buy to get one pair is great.

or

paying $190 for the new sig shoe is awesome. especially with that new "slick design".

you're right, but most of the time, JB and nike tell these stores how much they have to charge. for example, AF1s cannot sell for under $75. why do youthink JB items are always excluded from F&Fs?
 
How about at a certain point of time they let us vote on which og we would like to see released and bring back the retro cards
 
quality is #1 priority. for how much we pay for retro's, ask them to use better leather, paint, etc. i know they won't listen to you, but at least makeit an issue for the rest of us on nt.
