i would not say im completely done with jb, but as of now i am focused more on mother nike....i just feel like they need to give people what they really wantinstead of makin up new things just to get a buck....alot of retro colors have not come out and they need to give us those b4 they come with the crazycolors....another thing is that it seems they have lost the mold of all the og's and the shape of the retros are just ehhh....they could care less what wehave to say bc they are still bringin in money with fusions...all i have to say is focus on what got them to where they are now and stop ruining a goodthing....also i believe MJ needs to speak up bc his name is on this product and they are not representing him too well
 
Many people have said quality. Far too many have said it. I'm not getting at anybody, I'm just saying there's no way I can believe all of you.




Case in point: Remember the Chicago X fiasco? People who hadn't visited the JB forums in ages were even excited about next year, and we all know theChicago X quality will be complete crap. But is that going to stop you from coppin'em? HELL NO. Even if you got a pair DS og's you'll still need(and want) a new pair, cause sneakers don't last forever.
When it comes to this quality thing, let's face it, JB has us by the b*lls. Quality isn't what makes people come back. It's Models andcolorways. A lot of people claiming that quality will make them come back, will be right in line for the CDP mold space jams.

HELL NO, Im not copping the space jams at all! I walked home from school yesterday and my CRAP CDP XI had my feet bleeding (they arent a wrong size) so badthat now I can only wear flip flops. And I couldnt walk barefoot cuz there was glass shards and rocks and $%#+ all over the place
 
Great thoughts NT. I'm with everyone of you.

I would have to say that for me it would be a combination of quality and innovation. I would love to see the return of rich tumbled leather, full grainsuedes, and durable no gloss matte paints on the full line of shoes. No matter if it's a entry level team shoe or the annual flagship, the shoe qualityneeds to reflect the legacy of the man behind the Brand.
I also would like to see more innovative products. No more borrowing of features from shoes of the past. Retros should be done right, and new products shoebe what they are intended to be... completely new and exciting products. If JB could find a healthy balance, then I'd definitely be back a couple of timeseach year.
 
I'm still buying Jordans, but only OGs or older retros. (there's only like five more pairs I want ...then I'm done!)

I will only buy a new pair if it's one of the OG colorways that I don't have ...& I also hate quickstrike/limited releases ....they make absolutelyno sense at all!

All I would like to see is:
-Bordeaux VIIs
-Infa red/Maroon/Sprt-blue VI
-White-cement IV
 
Quality, with original molds and stop having these damn limited releases. I'm too damn old to be standing in line at 5 or 6am. It would be really nice tojust be able to walk in and grab a QUALITY pair of retros without having to jump through hoops.

You would think that someone who is as competitive as MJ who wants to win at ALL costs, having built his name and legacy and watching it go down as it is wouldbe steaming mad and fighting like hell to keep the " quality inspired by the greatest player ever" alive. Where does Tinker stand in all of this???Seeing all of his hard work getting bastardized into what we have now?
 
Og retros, no more stupid packs, no more fusions the way jb used to be circa 1985-2005
 
id get into JB hard again if they just retroed shoes in a GR way with good quality thats all i want nothing more nothing less.
 
... Only if... They stopped their packs and getting a mouthful of MY PACKAGE

Seriously... nothing anymore.

You can't be greedy to loyal fans, that just doesn't fly.

Having professional athletes wearing garbage for the playoffs just to get more exposure is ridiculous. Every other shoe is inspired off the 3's, 11'sshows a lack of creativity.

Jordan brand was so much better before it went big and global.

And to show how far they would need to go for me, I would need some Randy Moss PE XI's and some Kobe Bryant PE III's.
 
1. If micheal jordan got his old $*! back on the court in a bob cats uniform and acuatal wore the crap they putting out
2. If retros cost the same price as when the first came out.
3. if resellers stop buying all the limited shoes and charging a arm and leg



This will get me back.....but won't ever happen!
