JB Fire Red Fall - 2013

The  "Black Toes" and the Celtics 1's dropping later in the year are suppose to have the "Nike Air" branding.  Just curious, where'd you hear that from?

Just copped a pair of CDP 5's so im definitely copping the 3's and 4's. No need in getting another pair of 5's when they gonna be just as yellow as the CDP's in no time. I need to get a crispy pair of 3's anyways

The CDP 5's are not the 5's being discussed in this thread though. Are you just saying that you don't want the black toe V's because you have CDP/Fire Red V's?

Anywhere that has talked about these two shoes have stated that they are receiving the OG treatment.  I guess check any sneaker blog, google, or the threads for each shoe in here.  The Shadow Grey colorway is also getting the OG treatment and will have Nike Air branding (like the Knicks and Royals did).

Also, not happy with those new pictures of the IV.....WTF don't do this JB!!  I do like the grey/silver flight tag on the tongue though.

this shoe has changed 3 times before release date maybe this isnt how its going be hopefully 

Ha, well these are out in the wild, whereas the others were just PE's and a catalog pic. Unfortunately these don't appear to be samples and are almost certainly the garbage that's dropping. Just when you think Nike couldn't take a bigger dump on your face, they pull Durabuck out of their pocket to RUIN a release. :rofl:

I hate the grey flight tag, I think white or black would be nicer. I do hope they brighten up the durabuck, they look like the gym red spizikes, dull.
 
Def disappointed but they are still nice. If I would've never seen the Melo PE's i'd like these more. Still copped.
 
They could've at least given us a black sole.  I mean I'm not sure which one is gonna happen first, the red durabuck material bleeding onto the white sole (like the red and white 13's) or the white sole turning dirty brown (bottom and sides) after a few wears.  Either way, this will be a game time decision.
 
Kinda bummed they didn't use the same material as the Melo 4s...

I know they didn't wanna release that version, but at least keep the materials the same.

Looks like it'll be similar to the Motorboats.

Anyways, I'll cop because I think they look great, especially with light color denim/khakis.
 
first thing that came to mine are these samples besides the white midsole, still love the colorway, ill just throw some white laces on them
 
Durabuck = GARBAGE

Sorry, but the whole appeal for me on the IV was the suede and how it popped. These are now a dull, light red that doesn't pop. It almost mutes the white in contrast too. How they managed to take the Carmelo PE's and turn them into a turd sammich is beyond me, but PASSSSSSSS

Also: let me clarify that I don't think Durabuck in itself is garbage by any means. We've been clamoring for the material on numerous releases where we got poor quality nubuck, but it doesn't work on this release. :smh: How do you not use Durabuck on the BReds, Cavs or Thunders but then put it out on a red colorway where it doesn't even look as good as a high quality suede would?

nubuck is garbage son....nice to see JB goin back....now if they can re-re-release the black infrared VI's correctly...with nike air

shoe looks beautiful....keep up the slander, so these'll sit :lol:

It's kinda nice being able to say "PASS" so much thus far in 2013 haha... 2012 was a copp-heavy year for me, but basically I'm done until the FR-III and any VI that may get dropped on us out of nowhere. And Yes, I'm passing on the Grapes (But I'll likely grab the Aquas when they launch)

Nubuck is not garbage when used right, and these were SUEDE. These can gladly sit and you dudes can pick these up. They ruined the shoe with Durabuck and you're too blind to even admit the failure in putting it on these and not using it on the black CW's where it was warranted.

They def should have used durabuck on the black 4s and I also think it looks a lot better on these. I hate the suede and nubuck.
