Yes. you have to do some looking, and when i say look i dont mean walking around.
call every sneaker store in your area & if that doesnt work call every sneaker store thats not in your area.
and if that still doesnt work hit me up.

Don't get me wrong, good for the people who got them for retail, instant money maker. Just sucks for the one who bought them resale for ahefty price for a peace of junk.As for me, I'm good with my 2001 retro.Originally Posted by wigglez25

I found mine on ebay. They are 72" and are the perfect length. They are slightly narrower than the red laces but move through the laceholes more smoothly

yeah i mean, pull the strap off through the heel tab? i see what everybody is cutting off, but i think its simpler to just take the strap off and not to cut upthe stitching

Yes, these will allow you to lace them all the way up if you wanted to and still have enough to tie. I lace mine to the hole second from the top. I'vetried 45 inch laces and you can't even lace them up on the ankle portion.

^ I used my 54" black laces from my aquas, I laced it up to the second to last holes with a small knot, I like not have too much extra lacing

Nah, the other cats are too high. Everybody and their momma has these up for sale on eBay. The feeding frenzy is over. There are too many other good JB releasethat came out after this and more are coming. I wear a size 13 and I've seen a whole bunch of them on eBay in that size and now all of the sellers arefinally realizing that they should'nt bought these as a quick flip for cash. They weren't limited, so why copp for resale. I know many sellers who havesome left are feeling a little funny about copping so many. Watch the price drop like a knock kneed baby on ice. Heck, it's already dropping.

Man honestly if you let them go for 155 and 135 you didn't make jack squat. I'm not sure where you got them or how much you paid, but assuming retaileven if it's free shipping and no taxes you only got me 30-40 bucks back, Honestly not worth the money to make. As a business man, such as I, you need tofactor in time, driving, shipping and everything in before you really put any money into your pocket so it's your call on it really.

Heck, it's already dropping.Don't get me wrong I have 2 pairs and copped them on release day, so I do like them. My point was that this was a lot of hype for resellers. Let's face it...it was damn near a General Release. Let'em go and move on to the next big JB release. If not...hang on them for 2 years...the value may go up again at that point if JB doesn't drop anther red on black AJ1 Retro. Oh shoot...I forgot...can we say "Infared"?JB put too many 1 retros (including the Blue on Black low and the Red on Black lows) out there within a 2 month span. Sorry to break the news like this. Honestly in today's current market, that $155 and $135 might be too high. I keep seeing the same sellers re-listing the same shoe over and over again with no bid or purchases on the previously listed items. Stop the madness. It isn't worth it. Reselling J's isn't worth it these days, not unless it is truely a limited QS. Other than that. let it go, you save yourselves and your bank accounts. Believe that!
i ve sold two pairs to peeople living in spain...... for 200 each plus shipping...
