This must be a definite downtime for JB right now. There isn't that much releasing that are even worth the ticket imo.

As far as retro’s go, only need BC4 and Playoff 11’s this year.
Lol downtime and they still dropping a retro a week.
JB has changed a lot. Market way over saturated right now.
this is good and bad
but Jordan brand of this to them selves by releasing too many shoes and too many colorways in such short amount of a time for the past 3 to 4 years
Now's your chance Adidas!
I feel like JB did the same thing last year too. They had an amazing year and here we are now in the "downtime" thread.Adidas blew their creative load too early tbh. They set the bar high with UBs, NMDs, and 350s but really didn’t have anything left for round 2 since they were shooting blanks at that point. Even Futurecraft has somehow felt stale for whatever reason.

You guys hit the nail on the head.
JB has more or less killed the hype for GRs that existed in 2011-2013 except for the few, classic releases like Concord 11s, IR 6s and the BC4s coming out in May. More shoes are sold but I think GRs lost a lot of the allure they used to have during said era and a lot are basically headed straight for the discount rack. I was shocked that even NRG releases like those Social Status 6s sat and are going for under retail on Stock-X. Air Jordan 1 are pretty much the only model that can consisterly sellout regular releases on release day or soon thereafter. I guess the market is truly getting over saturated and will likely see a correction soon, if it hasn’t started already.

Yeah I mean JB has the luxury of releasing shoes like the Bred 1s, Concord 11s, Black IR 6s, BC 4s, etc. etc. that will probably always sellout due to their iconic status. For whatever reason, JB seems to hire some designers who are likely blind to design some of their retro+ cws (don’t mean to offend/insult any blind people here). It’s kind of bewildering how most if not all of JB’s problems are self-imposed.
Naw, every retro sell out damn well makes up for everything else. They’re spoiled. Mass produced shoes are not supossed to sell out in a couple hoursThere is so much trash sitting out there, JB has to be losing some money.
