AIR JORDAN 4 Black/Cement/Grey BLACK FRIDAY via COUNTERKICKS 03/08/12

I always go 1/2 size bigger and throw in a pair of force fields to minimize creasing
 
No, these are lightnings.
154717

They were a limited QS back in '06, and I believe came out with the Thunder and Lightning pack.

After wearing mine last night for hours. I have to agree with the pinky toe hurting. My ride side was killing me and even after I took the shoe off. I go tts everytime. All my boxes are 14's. But man do these feel tight. 

On another note, there's not a single sign of creasing or paint chipping

I'm also hoping everyone goes nuts over the bred xis and I can scoop the Thunders online as I'm gonna be in Naples, FL with my girl's fam n dont know squat about thar area.

those were the tour yellows bro
 
I only have one problem with the 4's this year. Dunno if the all 4's are like this, but does anyones back heel tab feel really sharp?

If you have them on, sometimes I can feel them stabbing me in my achilles.

The cav's have a really flexy rubber and a smooth cut so they're fine, but these and the WC's (maybe military's and fire reds but I didnt pick those up.)

Anyone else feeling this? I'm pretty sure im going to have to file the rubber so it's smooth where it's been cut :smh:

Ya I feel that a bit on my BC's. Pretty common with a lot of retro IV's. Longer socks will usually do the trick, although I hardly notice it anyway

Mine have been like that on all of them the first 10 wears or so.  Has gone away on all pairs except these....so far.

Never experience this with this years 4s. Maybe bc I wear crew socks now and not the ankle joints 
 
I just got 250 for an early graduation present. IDK if should get another one of these (grails), look for the BCIIIs or get another tattoo.

I feel like no matter which one I do, I will regret not doing the other ones :/

Just do them all :tongue: lol
Broke my pair out the other day, pretty happy so far with them
 
I wish those cool greys came out instead of the thunders. I wonder which would be better trade bait. I wonder if I could trade some thunder IVs for the CGs
 
Wore mine for a ball game last thursday night and they held up really good.
I'm 6'4" and around 225 pounds and there was NO creasing or early signs of cracking on the midsole after 40 minutes
of game time.
The only thing is I wore ankle socks and the heal tab (agrees with previous post that they are sharp) on the left shoe cut my achillies to bits.
Must wear higher socks the next time I ball in them.

Otherwise very happy!!!!
 
Wow those CG's are beautiful, you think people would be willing to do Thunder for some Cav IV's?  Just I can't seem to find a good price for some Cavs.

The tattoo is the only one that will stay with you permanently.  Unless you get the 4's and keep them deadstock.

Do your tattoos have any meaning behind them or are they just tatt's and nothing else?

If there's no significance behind them, I would go for the 4's.
