    + 1 on the clunkyness. With less air and more midsole, i doubt the Retros are any better.

    Poor ventilation too, at least on the OGs.

    As for the 1/2 size difference... are the Retros more narrow?

    Jordan Retros are often narrow compared to OGs. Wouldn't surprise me a bit if it's the case here too.\





    Debatable. The 2003 version of the Air Max2 CB for instance isn't comparable to the OGs, but some claim the it's still better than the 09 version.

    From my comparison of wearing both, the retros does feel more narrow.

    deff cop'd! alll the h8n on retros needs to stop, i cop'd all the retro PIP's I and couldnt be happier the bubble is tiny yes but to me feels tighter and like you have more control then OG's..i think people just take crappy pics of retros cause they love to hate...i would take retros over any fusion or 2009 or 2010 jordan model. and the pippen hybrid shoes is HORRIBLE!

    The sides aren't even clear!!!!! This is so wack!!!!!!!! That is the only reason I loved this shoe. clear sides and clear air pockets. Why can't nike retro stuff right. Is it that damn hard?? The sides are white it doesn't even look the same.

    I'm more angry about the small air bubbles that Nike started putting out on all their retro's.  My favorite kicks of all time have been ruined because of the small air bubbles (Penny 1's, Pippen 1's, More Uptempo's).  Just a sad situation [​IMG].  I pray that Nike brings back the regular big air bubbles on all their retro's one day.

    Love these, but will cop most likely when they hit outlets. Black/Reds look alot nicer and some outlets have them for like $30. I'll wait, but hopefully they end up looking better than the pictures.

    They should release the version of this shoe with the zoom air that scottie wore during the playoffs that year.
