Wow I'm surprised nobody mentioned 9/14, probably the most underrated pack this year, 2 hot colorways. Hopefully I can cop one next year for a good price.
9/14 was hot too, but the white stitching on the XIVs ruined it for me.

top 3 are

7/16....2 shoes that were NEVER retroed before in they're best colors.

11/12....anybody that's fronting on this pack didn't get them period. its black and red XI's and its taxi XII's..nuff said.

6/17.....one shoe was 18 years in the making with the carmines, the XVII's were decent enuff to not anchor down the demand for the pack.

honorable mentions would go to the first pack, the 10/13
 
since I didn't have the 10/13 pack, I'll put those first...
next the 11/12 pack because of the 12's, I've been dying to have a pair since I didn't have a job when the retros came out and only in 6th gradeand did my OG playoff XII's bad
then the 16/7 pack, beautiful package but didn't like the suede on the 7's and the 16's didn't feel the same as the OG's to me cushionwise, so that killed it for me.
9/14 I'll put next, love the 9's but the 14's held me back, I have the "last shots", that's good enough for me
then 6/17, 17's fit tight, 6's fit big...that don't make sense in a package...and I'm not big on the carmines as well

the rest just fall anywhere because I didn't have them/only wanted 1 shoe in the pack/etc...


most disappointed in the 5/18 and 3/20, they should've had spots on my list easy(hell, the 5/18 pack had the colors I wanted, they were just done wrong,still would be 6th though...those 20's though...I said before I wouldn't mind the 20's in whatever color to have the 3's since that's myfavorite model along with the 12's...I stood corrected)

hmmm...I the white stitching grew on me...gave it a nice unique look IMO
 
10/13
11/12
4/19

yesh the 5/18 pack was VERY dissappointing.. 5's my favorite shoe.. but theyve already done too many in that colorway.
 
1. 6/17 I love the Carmines and like S Dubl I am also a big fan of the 17's
2. 5/18 While the 18 colorway wasnt that great and 5's were retroed only a few years back (why they are at 2 instead of 1) these two are in my top fivefavorite jordans of all time.
3. 7/16 Great Pack

16/7's are right up their with that pack though if they both came out on the same day i would be happy if i got either or.

THE 17/6 pack is ugly only because of the overated Carmine's i like the 17's better in that pack.
3/20 could've been dope if the 20's weren't so ugly but Jb probaly saving more color's for the fuure retro
No.

7/16
6/17
10/13
11/12
 
Hands down the mall i go to had 180 packs at footlocker and they all sold out within 2hours. No other pack push this fast. To sum this up= 11/12 best pack andwe all know it.

11/12s are the best- NO Complaints herre
i base it on the "PACK", not the popularity of 1 shoe
7/16- both shoes GREAT
10/13- great start for the whole packs craze
8/15 love the bugs and i was actualy very impressed with the XVs
5/18-the 18s are better than i thought, but i prefer blue
1/22- I like 22s but these look fake-thumbs down on the pacl
6/17- 1 shoe pack (i like 17s but the CDP colorway was boo boo)
3/20-same as 6/17 pack except the XXs are worse than the 17s
4/19- i like both- the bred shoes just stared becoming overkill
2/21-I like the 2s- the bred 21s made the pack busted
9/14- I liked the pack the remix of the 14s wasnt bad
Overall i think JB couldve done a better job-all those "1 shoe" packs made me feel like they could cut cost buy making 1 shoe that would sell thepack and the just throw some cheap bull in as the other shoe because they know we all want the 1 popular shoe
 
i'd have to go with the 11/12 pack...simply because the XI's are my favorite...10/13 pack comes in second for me

only because everyone is so crazy about the carmines

I dont see the big deal about them probably the least attractive of all the 6's
could not agree with you more. its laughable how a shoe (carmine) back in da day didnt even get a second look and was @ champs on sale 69.99 allday long and now its the one to have! i agree on the list of best packs mentioned in 1st post but all it comes down to is HYPE!

fams...that was 18 YEARS ago.....and u add to the fact that we've been straight up STARVED for OGcolored VI's and yeah, one shoe is capable of anchoring the entire pack.
 
I'll give you my top 5:

5. 14/9. . . I loved the suede 14 wit the white stiches. And the 9 was jus plain beautiful.

4. 17/6. . . Carmines were my 1st pair of 6's!! The 17's are very nice as well i love the suede they have a nice smooth clean look to em.

3. 11/12. . . I already have 2 pairs of the 01' retro Breds so this pack was all about the 12s for me. I never owned the Taxi 12 before.

2. 15/8. . . LOVE 15's!! I was a sophmore in HS when they 1st came out and i fell in love wit em back then. And that new colorway was beautiful in my eys.I already had those color 8's but i needed a new pair cause i played ball in em and they were creased up to def!!

1. 13/10. . . The 13's were soooo amazing when i 1st opened the box & i jus couldnt put em down! I had never held that OG colorway in my hands before.It took me like a whole month before i even wore em, i didnt wanna crease em!! And the shadow 10 was jus as impressive! I held the 10 and just thought aboutall the things MJ did while wearing those in 95 and when he came back & it jus brought a big smile to my face :-D I'll never forget Sunday March 19th1995 vs the Pacers!! And of course the infamous "Double Nickle" in MSG! Oh da memories! I'm a DEAD SERIOUS Air Jordan fan!!! Their aint much idont know about him!
 
for me the best pack was a tie between the 11/12 and 10/13
they both had two of the hottest jordan shoes in the jordan line
 
11/12, Because my grails the Taxi MIDS not Lows were in it. At least they did it right this time and I might sell the XI's... Oh 6/17 because of hypestraight up. I mean who buys shoes for the history behind them? I mean who's Michael Jordan is he like a Kobe wanna-be or he wore Lebron's NUMBER?hahahaha....
 
Completely subjective, but here are the packs I picked up:

X/XIII - My Xs look great (some said theirs were flawed) and the XIII is one of my all-time favorites
VI/XVII - I've always liked the Carmines and I needed a XVII for the collection
III/XX - Black IIIs are my favorite J and XXs are very comfy to beat around in
XI/XII - I love XIs and XIIs
 
1. 7/16
2.(Tied) 6/17 and 10/13
3. 11/12

otherwise sum nice colorways wit crappy material or shoes dat looked off(4's looked eewww)
