Rumor: Air Jordan V (5) Retro – Grape/Laney Pack – July 2011 via Sneakernews.com

Why do people get mad over "Rumors"? I never understood it.

All ijapino did was post a "Rumor", and people are getting crazy over the legitimacy.

I mean if it doesn't release, it doesn't release. It's not the end of the world.

If they release with the 23 on the side then I need to start looking for the 06' retro! I don't know why it's so hard for them to keep the shoes from their original design

Already have Grapes.

And Laney's are overrated. Don't know why people go crazy over that shoe...not even Top 5 AJ5 imo. "OMG, Laney's are grail status. I'd suck $%&^ for a pair of these"...

SHUT UP!

Only way I'd get this pack is if I feel greedy and try to make some quick cash.

no way jose... the Vs NEED forcefields if you don't want them looking like you dropped dumbells on them, which makes them slightly uncomfortable... the later jays are better, such as XIVs, whioch i hear are the best... 3s are pretty nice imo...




Im not complaining about it. Il take an uncomrtable shoe to preserve the look. Im just sayin its the most uncomfortbale j Ive put on.

But yea, XIV are comfy.

I'm hoping this rumor is true. Laneys are str8 fire IMO and I sure wouldn't mind having a secord pair of grapes either!.
