Hilarious, that's what we all said when we got our shipment, that smell hit us instantly like WTF! LMAO! As much as I like the shoe I am seriously considering just passing on these.

The associate at my spot showed me a pair he tried on after taking a few steps in them. They had serious creasing around the ankle and toebox. I think I might pass now. 
I do like those 8's coming out so I'm not trippin if I do decide to pass

Quality on my pair is on par with fire red 5s from earlier this year. If you didn't like them then you won't like these.
I don't have high expectations of quality on 5s. My pair is clean without any blemishes or glue smell.

Can't see the sense in paying around $180 for these when they are just crap. 5's are my favourites but I WON'T be fooled into buying a rubbish product.
What's going on JB? You've really dropped the ball.. It's a shame that there are still so many others who will get these and don't expect better. Sad.

Grapes are a general release so def not. Even though it's a GR release, it's gonna sell out even with the complaints about the shoe quality.

Yeah, I was thinking about doing the same might just beat my 06's into the ground and wear these in a few years, only because copping two pairs for retail will be tough for me.

Still on the fence on this... I passed back in 2006 not really a big fan of wearing purples. I might just get it just to have 1 in my collection.

. I used to skip school when I was in high school buy jordans and come back with a note I forged with my parents name on it and I. Would be high while giving the note to them and I did this so many times and never got caught. This was in 94-98

Back then we would just leave school on lunch break go cop and nobody knew anything.... I miss the days where you could walk in at noon and pick up any Jordan...

Man, honestly I remember still being able to get pairs, the next time my parents decided I needed shoes and they would still be there. Just think about this, the majority of the time people got a new pair of shoes for school the were the Playoff releases from the summer if they were Jordan brand releases!

With the technology now, DS pairs gone be popping up everywhere until the next time they release. Plus they'll be yellow before you get to enjoy them, just rock them and live with it.
