It's official, JB is dead.

They sold out in Jersey. Some people still thought release date was the 30th. Other people would of had money if the release date stayed 30th but I know alotof people were not able to get the DMP 2 because of the date change. They wouldnt have the money for it until the 30th. As far as the Nubucks go, some peoplealready have them or are waiting for the 12's that come out later in the year.
 
JB is not dead because they could easily could come out with that one thing that EVERYONE would want and the same people in here that say its dead will be inline to cop them. (infrared vi's, bordeaux vii's, Jams, Concords) Just to name a few. It's a recession and not everyone can fork out 310 or 150 oreven 100 in some cases for sneakers. JB is simply not as strong as it used to be but to say its dead isn't true just because stuff didn't sell out in30 minutes or less.

I am not whining, I am informing people that over the past few months, the drop in sales is very noticeable. Sadly, even fusions use to sell verywell and now they don't. I remember when Dub Zeros first came out 4 years ago they sold out, now they don't. If you are going to come on here topost negative crap then go put your car in drive on a hill and put your head under the tire.
 
Maybe Bron will pick up the slack.. and we wont need jordans.... "the Six" anyone?? For now. im stickin with 03 and before retros. for the most part.
 
Jordan brand brought it upon themselves..... cheaper quality, raising the price, packs and throwing garbage at us we don't want....what was the last goodretro jordan brand through at us the grape v's??

Great...another "JB is dead thread"...how original...

Selling a 2-pack of $310 shoes at 60-75% liquidation IN ONE DAY nationally is dead? Please...

There is NOTHING in this industry that comes anywhere close to the sales of a Jordan Brand release...

i dont know about other people but im not feeling the nubucks but the raging bull is fire and all the places i know are sold out
 
They are sitting on shelves hear in Cincy. I however copped and I love em'. All the kids at my school always talk about fusions and the new dub zeros, andnone of them ever talk about real retros. It makes me sad.

This is a 100% true. This has always been the case. Some shoes are more popular in certain places than they are in others. I used to think thatthe Air Jondan IX and X were the worst sellers ever, until I got older and found out that in certain regions these shoes were hot and sold pretty well.
 
Garbage shoes at high prices...GT_OH

Not even on a half off would I buy them.

The way I see it. Kids are the only ones buying this stuff for now and then the fad will wear off. Nobody stays on top forever. Jordan shoes will not be on topforever. It'll fall to second place, third place and then they'll retro all the ill stuff AGAIN and then whats there to buy? Nothing...Laugh it off butone day Concord XI's re-re-retros will be sitting on a shelf cause there will be about 100 pairs in a footlocker stockroom with crap quality nobody wants.

So sad what my favorite childhood shoes will become.

i dont think its that *youngin's* dont apreciate it. i think its that having to pay over 300 online for a pair of jordans that are so limitedthat only if you ,Camp/work in or own a store can get them,im 18 so i guess in the jordan world im still a kid ,but i would never pay more than 160 for a pairof shoes.i dont kno thats just me
