If you don't think hype for these are a direct affect of the exposure Kanye has brought to the shoe you are mistaken. MJ wore these prior to the 2001 retro and they sat on shelves. Picked up my pair no problem back then .... FF to the present and this recent trend of Celeb sneaker heads has brought major thirst for alot of colorways which would of sat yrs ago.

I tried to get my pair online and failed like the rest :smh:, these were def limited in every sense of the word

impulse made me drop $300 shortly after I struck out on all US retailers :smh:

you win some you lose some **shrugs***
 
After failing in hours of googling the SKU hoping to find a pair somewhere in the world, I shall now commence calls to surrounding states of Atlanta, GA. Ill let fellow ATLiens in on what I find. Called over 30 stores today, and I was able to cop the last pair for my girlfriend out in the boonies in GA, at least. Also bought her a pair of BC 3 01 Cements last night. Shes spoiled....I just need a 9.5. If Im unable to find a pair, I guess I gotta bite the bullet...:smh:

This one's self explanatory

2001 on left vs. 2013 on right (Padding is substantially more on the 2001 version; 2001 had "JUMPMAN" on sock liner, 2013 has "NIKE AIR")

Pics aren't mine. They can be found, along with more, here.

You know the 01's are not HIGH, right?

From what $ amount would I be charged with a "customs fee" for purchase from Europe?

Also, would that $ amount include the $40+ shipping fee as well? or just the $ for the shoes?
 
How are they not high? IIIs and IVs are mids. Put em next to a 5 and you see that they are pretty much the same height (tongue excluded). 1s are higher than that. Put em next to a High top Dunk and you'll see.
