The foundation of Nike SB as we know it was built on hype. I'm glad to see Nike putting the time and energy into a line that is so deserved of such. I'm happy to watch the second wave of Nike SB reach a fever pitch. It gives some much needed energy to the brand and gives a new generation of...

That release convinced me that I will never be able to wear modern dunks regardless of whether I like the colorway or not.

Amazing that people are getting heated over a box logo on the heel. It's a simple, tasteful concept that will age well. Not everything has to be an over-the-top, garish, new to world design.

The last thing they need to do is rehash the cement theme for the sake of rehashing the cement theme. It's been done, it was great, let it die. I don't mind that they tried something different. Exploring different materials and messing with the jewel swoosh is cool in my book. We've had 17...

In hand, I think they did a fantastic job with these. Obviously there will be some differences with each retro iteration, but these are a significant improvement over the 2014 version and not TOO far off from the 2000. They pass the eye test IMO and they feel great in hand. There's not much...

Glorious weather in the city always inspires me to break out the classics. Every time I wear a pair of older SBs, I'm quickly reminded how terrible the new tooling is. It's honestly to the point where I'm just going to enjoy what I have and pass on the new stuff. As much as I love some of the...

This release was exactly how you do a retro+ colorway. Great color blocking, great material, relevant colorway/story to the Jordan 3 legacy. These have such a 2001-2003 retro vibe to them and I haven't been able to take them off since I got them.

If you don't already have a pair of 88s, it would be a complete waste of money to invest in a pair now. They were released at the tail end of one of the most horrific eras of JB quality in 2013. There will almost certainly be a fresh retro coming out shortly with the proper 2-piece rubber...

**WARNING, got into it and wound up writing an essay** It's funny reading all of these posts hypothesizing on what can drum up sustained hype for Nike SB again. Unfortunately, it will never be the same. Nike caught lighting in a bottle with the original SB run. It was the right product at the...

I consider the orange-silver-pink boxes similar to the original Star Wars trilogy. Everything else after the first 3 are cool in theory, but never had the same magic as the originals.

I agree that the quality is nice, but people waxing poetics about buttery leather just isn't accurate. These used the typical flat white leather of that era. Good by todays standards, but by no means extraordinary. I have a pair that I've absolutely beaten into the ground and a pair that's 100%...

I'm convinced that 99% of the people praising the quality of the OG Supas have never owned a pair. They're one of my favorite dunks ever, but to say that they have buttery leather is a severe overstatement. Most of the dunks from that era with color treated leather have severe issues with...

Trying to break the record for most creases on a toe box, any challengers.

Supa highs look absolutely amazing. I hold my breath every time I wear my lows as the orange has basically turned into a fragile egg shell coating. I prefer highs over lows anyway, so this is a welcome addition to the SB family.

The Delta Forces were actually a takedown model of the Air Force IIs for what it's worth.

Snapped a quick family picture of the Cement 5s with its ancestors. It's not often that I dabble with retro + colorways, but these genuinely feel like they could have been an OG 5 release.

These are very well executed and one of my favorite Jordan 5 retros in a long time. The quality is there and the colorway is a great nod to the 4s without being too over the top. Great little detail with the "flight" logo on the lace-locks. This is a great time to be a JB fan. Very reminiscent...

I really hope Nike decides to give this line some steam again. There are so many dope items from the apparel line that absolutely MUST see the light of day again. After years of searching—I was finally able to obtain a completely DS, still wrapped, untouched by human hands polo from the...

2016 TB 3s will have minimal cracking if any. They have changed the quality of paint and application process once they launched the remastered program for the better. I've had very few issues with any of my sneakers that have released since 2015. The 2012 Black/Red IVs in question...
