Official Air Jordan 1 Retro High Thread Vol: Best Model/Thread

[jordanhead718212]

I'm fiending to see this "new cut", I already know it's not gonna look like the 85s at all and the thread is going to riot

These new 1s better come with premium materials through out because that's a steep price hike any way you look at it.

$250 wouldn't be a bad price. do it JB

 

[WASHED KING]

I mean from JB's stand point the price hike is a no brainer. If you see shoes you sold at retail for $160 being purchased for $300+ on the regular on the secondary market there is a lot of money being left on the table. Supply and demand.

It's gonna be problems smh

Look at it from Nike's view. They are selling it at $160 and most pairs resell for above that, many WAY above that. From Nike's view, they are leaving a lot of money on the table. People are clearly willing to pay more than $160 so why change $160? So resellers can make more?

True, but for us it sucks. I can only speak for myself, but this price hike will definitely make me more selective on what I buy, but I'm probably an outlier.

The only positive I can see is if they flood the market so they can make as much $$$ as they can and kill resell, but I doubt that would happen.

Ima need @mikeyboy66 to hook me up with his plug

*spongebob voice* Ight Imma Head Out

I’m not surprised; I will still try to secure a pair and continue to wear my 2015 pair.

 

[0takusamsay]

Not stressing the new mold at all. If they look legit like an '85 then I'm in. But if theres only minor differences or changes for the worse between the "new beginnings" and remasters then I'm unconcerned.

 

[whoisthisguy]

I actually think they will produce more pairs with the price hike. They did this exact same thing with the 11s a few years ago.

Hope so but it’s still gonna be tough to cop

but u can find sum1 to beat u over the head and overcharge u for per orders anywhere.

 

[206to813]

Price hike sucks but tbh they’ve saturated the market for so long with 1s, how many more are they going to give us that we even need?
I want court purps in banned colorblocking, NGs, and black tongue black toes. Whenever the time is right for royals, breds and shadows to come out again in 2-3 yrs I’ll grab a pair. Randomly they’ll hit a home run with a retro + colorway like obsidians, Roty’s, or a fire collab. Otherwise I’m gonna be doing a lot of passing like most of 2019.

 

[thegamemodo9]

From what I read, only the "New Beginnings" line is $190. I assume this is OG colorways or something.

The other Hi OG 1's are $170.

they need to stop with the prices its why jordan brand other models is sitting use to be $160 for regular retros and like $120 for jordan 1s. they need to hang it up before its no more sneaker avenue

 

[starfox070]

[2pacalypsenow]

Lol the nickname ‘new beginnings’ just sounds like they’re gonna eff it up somehow. Especially under gentrys helm

Sneaker reselling is at an all-time high and you're saying JB should be getting less of a cut of the market than they already do? That makes no sense. If anything, JB should jack the price up to $500 a pop for collabs. They'd still sell out instantly. Do I want to see that? No. But that makes a lot of sense for JB. They are leaving a LOT of meat on the bone for resellers.
