a short fat guy went out and tried to capture a pic of himself looking like the jumpman, but he couldn't palm the ball?

We all understand that these retro releases no longer carry the greatest quality standards or something even as simple as real leather. With that being said, I have both the 2006 and these 2013 5's and I prefer the makeup of the 2013 over the 2006. That "leather" was very soft and prone to wrinking very easily on the 2006. I think all the 5's that have released this year thus far have been pretty good actually.

How do you know those that missed out on the Fear Pack got these? Does that mean that those who got the Fear Pack didn't get these?

that could have happened anywhere. could have came from being a rainy muggy summer day when they were on the truck for shipment if only 1 driver carried them from nike - the store? Not necessarily JB fault, that you have no control over really.

no disrespect man but if you that unhappy with them just return them and get your money back. All in all the shoes are pretty much hand made so there is going to be some flaws. That lil bit of paint youre worried about thats on the leather you can fix that if you really wanted to. That part on the heel you have no control over but its pretty much non-existent when you wear them because its not even noticeable. The toe box issue, it happens no two pairs are ever the same. Im sure many of other people have different height toe boxes and some dont.
Im just saying, you feel as if you paid $160+ that you need to get your money worth and apparently (at least how its coming off) youre not happy with what you spent your money on. Simple solution, return it for a refund or sell it to someone else. Im sure youll find someone that wouldnt look twice at those flaws you found.

After a few day with this shoe I must say that I really like the Metallic V's better and not just by a little but a whole lot. The colors seems to pop more .

My pair is nearly flawless. Should've doubled up, especially for under $120.

Can we be honest in here? I can only hope my pair doesn't look like that, once they arrive.

For those that use V's to play basketball, how long do you feel they typically last before you feel you can't use them anymore?
