If you're going to use that mentality, then the only reason ANY pair of retro Air Jordan sells well is due to hype, because just about ALL of them "sat" when they originally came out even in Chicago. With the exception of the black/red XIs, I clearly remember all the current models sitting on shelves so long that you could pick them up at a pretty good mark down on clearance each year when the next models were coming out. Yes, that includes the precious infrared VIs, and even the now so popular XIs. I remember people constantly commenting about how hideous the XI was, calling them rain shoes, cop shoes, etc. and saying that the only reason some people were buying them was because they were Jordans. Otherwise, no one would buy a shoe that ugly. Now people talk about how awesome patent leather is, and how they're a classic and possibly the best Air Jordan ever made in the original line up. Funny how things change 10+ years later, isn't it?Originally Posted by beh235
To those who actually remember the shoe. I remember when they first came out. They sat. If you really like the shoe then fine, no problem. I honestly think people were dying for the shoe because it was one of the few colorways not yet to be retroed. When I think of this colorway, I think of the Maroon VI's as well. People want those, but as I recall, that shoe sat around for a long time. I just remembered the days where the Bulls colorways were most desirable because MJ played and wore those in games the majority of the time.Originally Posted by kxtreme83

that will never happen. its a sick shoe and it brings back a lot of childhood memories for a lot of us
You have to keep in mind that AJs were made in HUGE quantities when they were new/current models. Not only did they have a ton on release day, but they were restocked multiple times for each model. If a store ran out, they ordered more. If they ran out again, they reordered again. They were just like any regular consumer merchandise. There was no such thing as quick strikes, or limited runs, or even single stocks on AJs back then. For example, everyone and their mother had the AJ VI when I was in high school, yet the stores never ran out of them before the VIIs came out. So the fact they "sat" is not an indication that they weren't popular. They were just grossly mass produced due to the HUGE demand.

This. had these in '91, but that was the cross colors, kris kross era, we wasn't matchin' back then.
And as expected these are still in stores here, if it isn't an 11 or an 13 retro, they don't move that fast down here. Funny i was talkin' to a my lil cousin and a group of his friends
and these #*@$!@ talkin' how trash the shoes are and they'd never rock em, every one of them either has a snap back on, or a high top fade, whole swag stolen from the 90's...but these are garbage.
