As vood99 said, the main problem is that consumers keep buying at this crap quality level, not only that, they fight, stab, kill, and pay 2x retail for this junk. Nike supposedly doesn't condone all the violence over their sneakers, but I promise you every single exec at nike gets a hard on...

I'm personally hoping do they a decent job of these, however unlikely it may be. 

Got the washington xvii when they dropped. They were so narrow I had to go up from an 11 to a 13. This obviously did not work and I returned them after one practice. I'm a size 13 now so hopefully these'll fit better this time round

Only had the OG version for a week before I returned it, but the retros are pretty decent, although no monkey paw

I retract what I said about the olympic VIs being average quality wise. They suck. The first time I tried them on and felt them was in isolation. When I tried on the VIs, uptempos and shox bb4 together, the quality gap between jordan and nike products was astounding. The shox were by far the...

cdps XIs were trash. When I got them I thought they were fake

Chicago Xs were plasitc. XII playoff were probably the cheapest made $170 shoe I ever had the displeasure of touching. Cardboard leather! Cavs iv were very good, best I've seen in a while. oly vi were average

Getting decent info out of store employees is hell, especially if a woman answers the phone

I'd be tempted to get the + if it could measure fgm/a, points, rebounds, steals etc. so I wouldn't have to count them but to measure vertical and quickness? Who comes off the court after I game and goes " I jumped higher than you or I ran faster"? Maybe in track and field, but in basketball, you...

Nike only answers to its shareholders. If you want them to retro your shoes, organize a few billion to buy a controlling share, vote yourself chairman and then tell nike to produce what you want

I agree with bigj505, Nike is the problem. Kid needs to learn to distinguish between cause and effect. Nike is clearly the cause, since they control supply. And even if there were zero resellers, how many hypebeasts do you think there are out there out that  would buy those pairs? It's not like...

I'm not talking about myself in particular, consumers in general are being  trained to consider 250-300 basketball shoes as the norm. I wouldn't spend more than $200 for a basketball shoe.  Where I'm at the elites sold out in about a week, and the hypedunk+ is heading in the same direction. What...

If you had bothered to read my post you would have noticed that I differentiated between the REASONABLY priced standard version and the overpriced + version

I don't like where the shoe game is going. Nike's training us to accept paying $300 retail for a pair of balling shoes that will get demolished anyway, as all balling shoes do. Look at the trend lebron elites 250 hyperdunk+ 250 lebron 10+ 315 I know there will be options and the standard one...

Yeah, hypebeasts are taking over. 89% year over year sales increase with this BS quality means it isn't gonna get better

Foams are way overrated anyway, as is the penny line. Penny's shoes are like their namesake, decent but nothing special. Nike will keep producing a rainbow of these as long they shift, so if you don't want anymore, don't but them

Pic made me laugh

Saw these in store today, quality felt very cheap and flimsy. Certainly not worth the $300 they cost over here. And this nike+ is such a gimmick. You do not need it to tell you how well you perform in the game of basketball. You can tell how high you jump by how far you are above or below the...

Almost bought a pippen jersey until I found out the price was £100

Thie pippen is going to be my nexthooping shoe
