Originals were $150...
A $20 price hike from 97-98 isnt all that bad all things considered

JB doesn't care about us this is all they care about:
Can't blame either that's what the point of business is....

Not as ridiculous as the price hikes from the older silos. Only purchasing one more pair of XIII's at retail anyways (Black Toes) so this won't affect me much. Eventually J's will hit $200 MSRP and the consumer will eat them up regardless.

These subtle price hikes are ridiculous especially since the quality won't justify the increase. |I

Retros have ancient technology and are pretty much for casual wear. Apples to oranges comparison.
If I like a shoe enough I'll shell out. I can't knock the next man for doing the same. Rather than watch the reseller profit from a big markup, JB is putting some of that back in their pockets. Can't knock the hustle.

Im on my jordan 1 game and im done collecting, next year will be money saved all year pretty much unless some OG style 1s come out after the Royals. Im not paying 170 for worse quality, if the product was identicle quality as OG im in but no way u give me crap quality and you chage more and expect me to buy.

its all good
Well the price hike is not so much for the XIII's but if you look at the bigger picture, that price hike will move on to other retros... Lets say for example whenever Columbia XI's drop that means they will be near $220...... What about the XVI's and XVII's, they were already $165 and $200, so how much will they be when they retro...

Only way I'll be buying anything at that price is if I can get a discount (i.e. Winner's Circle Rewards or a connection). I have to draw the line somewhere. Therefore, more retro Nikes in the future for me.

I support this move. Infact they need to add 125-175 to this price hike. Time for Jordan Brand to get some diginity back. Tired of seeing these shoes end up in the hands of a shoe facist or hypebeast. Tired of snobby elitist "heads" making green moves with insider info and product tampering. Its a shame that in the Black/Red IV/XI threads you got alot of good hardworking dudes that wont even get chance to get this shoe because some shoe nazi got a billion pairs on his instragram going for 350-400. Hype is nothing new for the Air Jordan line its been there since 85, whats new is this distribution culture that got all the wrong people with all the right shoes. Make em 325-400 out the gate.
