Action over words. If something is too pricey don't buy it. If quality is bad find another brand. EVERY shoe company has had price increases, Factories are being burned down in protest and people are striking. This is much bigger than RF and Kith. The "golden age" of Fiegs work always gets brought up and hardly anybody was around for it. Most bought the shoes at a ridiculous price to pretend they were. The shoes are now reaching a more realistic amount of people and are still very limited compared to a Jordan. If people want low production they can buy Diadoras and keep chasing the hip thing.

It's just sad to see things come to an end. Oh well

What's the best in terms of materials quality and construction?
Puma XT-2 DSM or Asics Grand Opening?

Word is the Puma's leather is superior. The fact that they also come with dust and lace bags also make them a better deal.

Cant speak for the Pumas but i have the GO sagas and they are great. The glove leather is soft and durable and has withstood creasing after many wears. 
 
can't speak much about the grand opening's but the leather on the DSM's is insane. 
 
I dont think the real problem is the changes in quality, production, or price. The problem is I love shoes too d*mn much and will continue to buy what a like when I see it! 

My name is Jordan and I am an addict...

this is what i don't understand about the internet. haters. if you don't like something don't buy it. if you don't like someone don't follow them on instagram/facebook/twitter. if you don't like the song don't listen to it. if you don't like the show/movie don't watch it. yet people will sit there and dog on all these things via message boards/youtube/facebook etc. its crazy. nothing worse than a youtube comment section or a celebrity's comment section of instagram

100%

However, NT is a bit different because it is a discussion board and not a comments section. People discuss good and bad here. I don't think someone thats "hating" on a shoe or a model or whatever is out of place here...unless they get carried away. 
 
If you never liked someone/something I can agree, but if you started out as a fan and then this person or company out the blue put out a string of weak products I don't have a problem with someone voicing their displeasure. Deep down I think the majority of people want RF to make good product and to succeed even if they voice a negative opinion.
 
like someone said earlier. half you people weren't around for prime ronnie, me being one of them i was too busy being blinded by nike so maybe thats why i don't get mad so if you weren't there and you paid resell for prime ronnie pieces you shouldn't be mad either

I have both pairs, and kept the Pumas and sold the GOs. Leather on the GOs is decent, but if I were to compare, the Pumas are much better than the GOs in materials quality and construction. Regardless the GL3 is a gorgeous model and looks pretty sick on feet. Can't go wrong with either.

dsm's  > 

gt3's are good looking though.

dsm's are better for value.

better packaging, leather, and leather dustbag

yeah man ds and everything included. super lucky. honestly the guy who brought it up recently asking about these and the GO's is what inspired me to go looking for another pair. 

but im not that lucky cause i actually lost my 1st pair of the black dsm's.  no freaking clue where they vanished to. they were one of my fav pairs too. in my 13+ years of collecting that was the only pair that i've ever lost.
