3's and 4's were actually a $15 increase. And, any increase is "real". Multiply $15 x the amount sold. Those are very real numbers.

You are comparing a Jordan shoe that dropped in 2006 and 2011. To a Jordan shoe that dropped in 2013. In those 2 short years the climate of shoes have changed alot. And even with a physical comparance of the shoes, they still are not the same.
We are sitting here comparing an exact same shoe that dropped 2 weeks ago, to the same exact shoe that dropped today. And the same shoe has a $60 price increase. There is no way in the world you can tell me any justification for that on Nike's part.
Yeah the prices of the denims were close to retail, but no one would of really said any thing if the denims were prices at $250.00. Due to the fact that it was a totally different shoe and material then the regular Lebron X's.

scratches head... 5s dropped this year for 170. the db5s were 180. glow in the dark, different upper.... 3lab5s were 250 for elephant print. 3s dropped this year. 170. 88 3s were 200 for a NIKE AIR tag on the back and the sole.
just stop man. get off the Jordan brand love boat. they are all the same company and will stick it to us just the same.

Its not a real enough of an increase to make someone sit and look at their cart and decide if they are gonna buy the shoe or not.
Jordan 3's & 4 price increase - $160.00 to $175.00
Lebron XI price increase - $200.00 to $250.00
Not even a comparison.

I said Flip 3s because that's what they are. Flip 5s with a different name. when Jordan brand originally did the flips, they marked them up 15-25 above their current price. not the $80 price hike they did with the 5s.
the comparison is real. elephant print doesn't cost $80 more to use than using leather or nubuck or whatever else they use.

A friend told me that he talked to his HOH and they claim these will be a GR in a month, kinda like the preview Jade release.

You are assuming it doesn't cost $70 more, which is a fair assumption. But im sure it did cost more to produce an elephant print, then the standard Jordan 5. But I can positivley say that changing a Lebron XI from Red to Orange absolutly has no cost markup. You can't effectivly guage the cost of changing a shoes material from leather to elephant print. But you can absolutley gauge changing the color of a shoe.
