Air Jordan 5 2013 "Elephant print" 23rd anniversary

your smart, im gonna try and get two pairs and try to trade for a pair of IV's
Exactly what I did to acquire my db iv's last year. I knew I was going to pay reseller prices to get my size. Ended up getting a kids size 6 and three adult pairs size 7 (2)and size 12. Used the profit off the kid and one adult pair to pay the difference for my pair. Seems like I got a bargain paying $450 for my size 11.5. Can't even find them or a majority of the db Jordan's for cheap in ds condition. The v's will be trade bait if I don't like them.

well im not that lucky with NDC and especially with highly limited shoe. im gonna try my best then this year since they got the new system. im just mad i didnt have cash when the IV's dropped last year :smh: :smh: :smh:
 
that sounds really bad. i love my db2, db3 and db6, and if these sound like they do then it will be two years of pass for me.
 
^^ i struck out on ndc that night. My bro owed me a solid so was able to get 2 of my pairs thru niketowns old Facebook reservation system. Now I have to contemplate if I want a twitter account to RSVP for these. Absolutely hate twitter but gotta do it if i want a pair.

looks like kicksquad got a hold of it
 
i wish it was like the black flip 3s with the blue hits that would be so :smokin and the icy blue sole with the elephant print showing thru
 
I like them.. Just have to wait for the official pics. Hate the fact that there's going to be hype on them like crazy..
 
I don't think they're that bad, it was bound to happen that JB released an all elephant print shoe...And take it easy on the negative comments, its not like JB designed these. They are helping children cancer patients and letting them create a shoe. We aren't going to get concords or black cement 3 designs from these kids

I agree, but at the same time, I bet these were not the best ones they could've selected. The Doernbecher 1s and 2s are the only ones I didnt think had a truly awesome design. The kid who designed the VIs should be hired by Nike! Especially for the SB department, as they have truly ran out of ideas. They are getting better, but not nearly as good as they used to be

I have purchased every pair of Doernbecher kicks so far, and if all goes well I will be picking these up to. The designs may not be the best, and it may not be what I want on them, but in the end that's not what it's about. It's about the kid that put the time and effort into the process of creating that shoe for charity, and the reason they got that chance to create something that benefits a greater cause. These kids have fought through disease, and continue to fight something that the majority of us have never experienced. I have collected J's for 16 years now, and have been guilty of complaining about quality in retros, and flooding the market with them, but to me these are off limits as far as complaints go. I hope these sell, and sell quick so that these kids that need the support from this can get it.
 
wont be shocked if the 5s look horrible cuz imo most db were ugly except the 6s
 
Photoshop doesn't look bad. Doesn't really matter though what the final production looks like I will be copping to add to all the other DBs.
