Man I just recently threw mine out because the sole was coming off and flapping :rofl: I wore them to death.



One of my favorites that had a crazy, hell of a release was online on Jumpman23.com .The Air Jordan IV white lasers with the hat and shirt. It was screwed up like releases are now. This was the 1st online release that was like the ones we have now.Retail was $200 2nd pair I paid $200 for, 1st being the 17s with the case. Took me half a day of the site crashing but I finally got them. Still wear them to this day. More comfortable than a lot of the newer ivs
 
Those 17s are so dope IMO, don't know comfort wise but have always been on the look for a pair with a halfway decent price.. problem is they don't exist really lol, saw an ebay listing for the case only for $100

View media item 995867One of my fav Jordan IV's from '06. Womens colorway but very clean.

View media item 995870One of the most unique Jordan 1's. JB wanted to distance itself from Nike, but they would realized you could remove the Nike Air tag, but not the swoosh altogether.

View media item 995874After I-XIV this is my fav Jordan. I remember starving for a week after spending all my cash on this in high school. Wouldn't be the last time either.

View media item 995878Thought these were so ugly when they dropped, but now they're not all that bad.

This. Maybe I should look for a pair too. I know the prices are crazy. The leather on them oreo and colombia IV's was butter. I think I just missed out on that release and I wasn't actively looking for a pair. Not only these but these too...

I was JUST thinking about both pairs last week. I don't know what I was thinking in '04. Well I actually do remember. I should have tried

I'm actually planning on getting these this weekend. I have a deal in place for a pair (not DS but a lil cleaning will have them looking new)

I should start doing some searching. I don't think I'm going to like what I find given how opportunistic people are trying to be selling kicks these days.
 
My brother destroyed my flint IX's. I kept them fresh for 2 years, he crash and burned them in 6 months. To be fair, he was in middle school at the time

For a DS pair, it might cost you at least $250 but a slightly used pair would go for less than $150 sometimes. A lot of sellers would negotiate more for older pairs compared to newer releases

yeah, you're right. I mean, all things considered, that's not even that bad. Honestly, I'd pay $250 for those as opposed to say, some Yeezy foams.

So will we ever see JB drop the retro 4+ blue speckle that was supposed to be after 25 years of waiting?
