Picked my pair up. IMO the sparkle on the mid sole is nice.

True. Don't get me wrong, I love the fact that Jordans are now a lot easier to get compared to the last few years of retros. I just wish the Jordans that I actually want (most of which have already came out in the past e.g. Playoff 13, Black Infrared 6, etc.) were this easy to get rather than having to pay re-sell price after all retail places have already sold out.

Exactly... That doesn't mean everybody is going to rock them the same way. It's the fact that I got em haha. My 1st time having Aquas ever!

I missed out on a couple of sneakers that past couple of years too and I refuse to pay *outrageous* resell prices. But like @Gambit11 said, if they keep it up then we have a chance getting sneakers a day or 2, sometimes maybe a week or 2 to cop. They might not be the releases we want, but for the OG heads like myself, at least they will be remastered.

Word. It's definitely a huge plus for those who have been anticipating for a shoe for a long time and are actually able to cop no problem on release day. Hopefully this trend will continue come next year when the White Cement 4's and Black Metallic 5's come out. Those are a must cop for me for sure.

Heck yea... I need those Metallic 5s. My 2011 pair aren't beat but they need a rest.

Eastbay still got a fsr. This is the easiest cop in a long time. Plus a lot of people really don't feel the 8s

Having said all that though, I had the chance to see these in person today at the mall. These are absolutely gorgeous in person. JB did a really great job with these. It's too bad I'm not a big enough fan of these to spend $200+ on them. For those who have been waiting for these to come out again (especially in OG form) definitely got lucky with this one. These and the Chicago 1's are probably the best releases of this year IMO.

I'm satisfied with all my 2015 purchases. JB really made it easy for me not to want to buy up a release it two every month. Still gotta get the Bordeaux's and hunt for a deal on the Shattered Backboards but I'm happy for now. Hopefully next year can be just as small as far as purchases; the cement 4s, flu game 12 is all that has my attention although I fear JB may drop the rest of my favorites (Charcoal 7, Metallic 5 and black Cement 4 which you know will be $220) and others I would buy.View media item 1805539 I hope they bring back the 3s for black Friday as a mass GR.

I really like the design of the insoles.. This was such an easy purchase. Not to be nit picking, but do anyone feel as though that these look huge on feet compared to the 07 pair? Not complaining at all, but it is something I noticed.. It's almost boot like.

These are really nice in person. Like someone else said, not a fan enough of the model to cop, but these were definitely done right.

I stopped buying shoes awhile ago but I wanted these to replace my 07 pair. I totally forgot about the release though until now and decided to check Nike for the hell of it. Wow was I surprised that they were still available in my size, super happy right now.

My first time buying any Jordan retro. I was broke when the OGs released and was broke when they retroed in 2007. Not this year! A couple of job promotions got my mind and $ right. Now all I want is some Bred 4s and y'all can have the rest.

I think it's based on sales. I think JB originally planned on making these $200, but reduced sales over the summer made them keep price at $190 (which appears to still be too high).

Been waiting on these since they were rumored two years ago and haven't copped a pair since Black Friday two years ago. Easy cop this morning. Couple releases coming up I want too. The relapse is real. I had OG squad back in 5th grade, can't wait for these to get here.

That's what's up homie!
Glad to see things progressing for you.
For those that think they are too bulky, the OGs were bulky as well.
So the bulk is a positive in this case.
