Take it from this perspective, wouldn't you be ticked if you found out people were buying and reselling your products at a higher price margin? All the money your potentially losing. I'm not sure if paying $20 more really means were paying for quality worth $20 more but it's a market move. I hate a higher retail price but I hate resale prices more. Cutting into a resellers profit margin reduces the appeal for reselling (i.e. WTLs). So until hype, demand, whatever finally goes away, we have to suck it up and pay a higher price. Right now, the sellers are controlling the market. We aren't forced to buy the shoes but we are forced to pay the price as long as there are people out there willing to buy it as well

Nike makes ridiculous amounts of money as it is now and with the way the culture is now, they can continue to milk the cow for all its worth, and give us inferior quality and craftsmanship. Just because they cut into resellers profits doesn't make it any better to the consumer looking to pay retail. They still limit production numbers...still come up with gimmicky nicknames for every shoe..and they still want resellers around because they are the litmus test to see how much people are willing to pay for the downgraded products they put out. So your perspective doesn't exactly negate the fact that Nike is always incrementally finding excuses to get an extra dollar out of us.
 
It would be crazy if they released the prototype version on us.

this and only this

i want these bad but if i have to miss out and pay resell im passing. im done with this game crap and having to use bots which most dont even get through anyways
 
really though

if they're a GR just like the other releases this year i'd be obliged to cop.

i'd double up if they were released like chuck taylors, but it's not gonna happen lol

MN def wasnt the first to post it since they have NO LEGIT info what so ever. Didnt know that site was still around, been a minute since someone posted their fake BS.

Anyways hoping who ever found the info first is correct and these drop. gonna need to snag a pair of blacktoes when these drop as well then :lol:

I know the clown who runs this site. ****** lame fb post after fb post on how he can **** your *****, how he ***** nothing but dimes, how he is more of a sneakerhead than anyone else, and how cool his beard is. :smh:

Anyway if this is true then one for me and one for my brother.
 
If these really do release next year these are an automatic cop. I need to expand my Jordan 1 collection with the Nike Air on it.
 
I have the 2013 pair, but I really hope these do release and I will try my best to cop a pair.
 
I passed on the 2013 pair for these. There are a few jumpman pairs I rock but the lack of a stupid giant jumpman on the back could save a bunch of otherwise weak colorways. DGAF I said it.

are you saying the Chicago 1s are otherwise a weak colorway unless they don't have a jumpman? not saying you're right or wrong but I wasn't sure what you were trying to say.

That is not close to what I said. Its two ideas

1: Chicago 1s were passed on for a NA pair
2: There are some weak colorways that would be way better without that large *** distracting jumpman on the heel.
 
I definitely passed on the Chicagos not just for that jumpman heel but you can tell from looking at that cardboard tongue that they were not going to be comfy. I always felt like JB would retro them right since they had the Knicks and Royals with NA treatment anyways.

Even though I love my Chicago's, the combination of the leather tongue and plastic-like leather on the toebox made it really uncomfortable.
 
unpopular opinion: out of all the original CWs I probably like the Cicagos the least. I respect it for the history, but I guess I will pass on these even with NA treatment. Glad for you guys that they´ll drop them the right way though.

good post.. thanks for not being a hyperbeast..
 
honestly the 2013 chicagos were not as good 

the pleather it was not a good release but i knew they were saving them for 2014-or 2015 back then 

i wore mine a few times then sold em for 75 bucks 

this is a double or even triple up if possible.
