*****The New Official Jordan 11"Space Jam" 09 Thread ! Vol: No Bs Please !*****

[faddy]

I talked to my local footlocker today, they're only getting 12-24 pairs! I asked him about reserving and he said he doesnt even kmow who's on schedulethat day. But it didnt seem like he was expecting any campers so i'll probably just hit the mall when when it opens. Boy am I pumped for these

 

[ube ice cream]

Does anyone know if shoetrends shipped them yet?

1. $175 + tax= 192 and some change round my way...paid the same price for CG Spizikes a year ago...cost is an issue. but thats not the confusion

2. NO CF !?! So it is true that Air Jordan Retros are no longer designed/constructed to withstand the rigors of basketball ( I dont play btw either)

3. JUMPMAN JORDAN across the tongue, making it indistinguishable from the flood of fakes floating around since about 2002....

4. Quality doesn't seem to be set at any type of standard; almost every pair I've seen has different patent cuts, from the b-grades to the pairs leaking out even now.... and that's not to mention the pic of the FAKE CF plate splitting after just one casual wear...and they dont fit true to size?

5. In closing, I am very disappointed so far. I have not seen them in person and will be further disappointed if I take steps to secure a pair, including trying to rustle up the money, only to hold them in my hand and have a

or a

or a

or even a

. . . . are these shoes made only to LOOK at ? ? ? ?

6. I, for one, take pride in keeping all my icy bottom Jordans icy. But if that means I cant even wear these without the fear of their integrity being compromised, then I can spend $200 elsewhere and just stare at my '00 Jams that say JUMPMAN JAM and are excellent quality and paid for....

I simply dont believe everybody is compromising their stance on quality just because this is an XI Retro. Subpar IMO, and subject to not be copped by me. Maybe my girl or one of my kids may end up with a pair to beat up. I'm gentle on my Jays, but I get drunk and tear them up every once in awhile. If I can't count on my $200 '09 Space Jams to get me through a house party or night on the town, I just dont know what to say....

My sentiments exactly, except I have a pair of '01 Breds instead of SJ's. And after seeing the cracked CF, I will not drop extra cash for these. i willgo to the Galleria. If I get them, cool. If not, so be it. This shouldn't even e legal to sell a damn near BOGUS product to the public at an overlyinflated price.

This has been the case for this company in this department for almost the past decade.

BAY AREA SF HEADS???

 

[blink]

So to the people in the DMV, where are you guy's copping these from? I'm thinking about going down to Potomac Mills since they have 2 FTL's, FA,AND a Finishline, plus it'll probably be the safest area to cop from.

Nah man Thank You for not holding out...I'm sure Joe will take care of ya I mean who doesn't like good business. If theres anything let me know.

D'oh! What a joke, they are overcharging for this and the quality is not durable? They are trying to overcharge us for a fancy box? I guess the only way togo with collecting Nike shoes as far as signature shoes goes is to stick to Kobe and LeBron. Those are originals with durable material and not retro. The retrois just reissued junk and changed up from the originals. And their quality is so diminished, not the same material used on the originals.

My boy told me that Willowbrook's Footlocker and Champs are opening at 5AM, but I will ask my homeboy that works at Footlocker today to make sure andI'll get back at you on that.

PM me if anything, I'm by Acres Homes in Houston.

 

[infamous54]

I'm beginnig to have second about copping....hell even with Jordan Brand. I'm not the one to complain about quality but after seeing the pic of thecracked plate really solitified my decision not to purchase. Hey my mind might change from now to release day. But as for now, I'll pass.

 

[swolehouse]

All Houston Galleria spots are opening at midnight. Memorial City spots are opening at 5 a.m.

 

[b20 eg8]

Damn I wish we had that many people over here in so-cal doing midnight releases and opening early.. Mostly all the stores around this way open up @ theirregular time which is around 10.

A lot of the mom and pop stores stay with their normal opening time, I hate that.

Most chains like Champs, Finishline, and Footaction are opening at 5 am.
