Finally ...Gentry Is DONE !!!

[noir.]

This man was responsible for some of the most terrible sneaker designs over at Jordan Brand, I remember the communal "SIGH" when he left & then came back... could this mark the end of the dark days of Jordan Brand?

How ya'll feel about it?

I experienced everything, via my NT filter, this fool did to the world of sneakers over my couple decades here…Only thing I can say is don’t let the door hit him in the *** on his way out…

JB’s run when Gentry was gone from 2015-2018, and stretching into 2019 was incredible.

Pretty well done retros with lots of quantity, easy to grab.

Let’s get back to that.

Lmao

Well, I’ll hold off any reaction until I see how things change, because if they don’t, this won’t matter.

Complex article says Kris Wright is the new Jordan Brand VP.

That guy had a job that he couldn’t mess up if he tried, and he sure did try

The funny part about this is that Gentry saved Jordan Brand twice. Record setting revenues in both his tenures. The hate comes from dudes who have no idea of how the sneaker business works. Gentry transformed Jordans for the better and we all should be thankful. Sure he has some misses but he isn't superhuman. He's done more good than harm. I hope he comes back in the near future.

You must be on that gas he even ruined foams with those terrible colorways

 

[KanyIZZY]

And I hope he NEVER comes back in any kind of future..

Foams? Lol.... I'm speaking on Jordan brand. Gentry was a God Send.... We got the AMM 3s under his watch and countless other non-OG heaters.

lol, i get so weary of the self-righteous saying stuff like "you don't know how the sneaker business works" ... um, nor do i really care, people buy ugly stuff urrrrday homie. we don't care about sales, just give us fire colorways & designs...

You have to understand that not everyone wants the same remastered Jordans every year. There's a way to give people remastered ogs while also giving us fire new stuff and Gentry did that to perfection

It's not about you caring about sales. A lot of you dudes are taking Gentry's genius for granted. This man gave us fire colorways since he got back and instead of focusing on that you choose to hate. Appreciate his greatness because we'll miss him after a while

So it's a total coincidence that as soon as he rejoined Jordan, they went on to have record revenues? Y'all dudes are blinded by hate at this point

 

[rbk93]

K Kierris I don't have any dog in this fight, but can you name some of these fire CWs? I usually stick to the OGs(or stuff I liked during middle/high school) CWs outside of 1s.

Truly interested.
