I don't think a lot of people, mostly young kids, know that Michael Jordan is not that friendly. He's labeled by many to be an asshole. Just saying.

Yes I must agree; he appeared to be just that. And if he went to one of the Sneaker releases I could see one of those little Thugs doing just that given the opportunity.

Ha! $300 price range is on the lower side for collectors. Some fetch for $1.5k+ for the over-hyped and very limited ugly shoes.

How are the Gammas in person? I'm not a fan of the patented leather, but the colorway is not too shabby considering it isn't too flashy. SMH at brawls for them though. Not worth it lol.

One must be a basketball fan to really know that fact. He really is a prick.

Ha, I remember when I was a kid recalling MJ making snarky comments and the facial expressions he made when he was pissed. You can tell he had an ego but I didn't care if he wasn't the best role model. Who cares, I just wanted to play like him and get his shoes. Like Mike.

I gotta say they look good and I like the colorway. I'm not big on 11's but I gotta admit I wanted them but it was already too late. It ain't Christmas unless there's a yearly brawl for a pair of 11's.

Just like when the Jordan 11 Space Jams came out in 2009... I got mine at Shiek, initially lined up at 2am, ditched to sleep and came back at 10am and still got a pair. That year pretty much started the whole thing.

Now-a-days, it's how quick your reflexes are with the mouse or how reliable your most recent version of BOT

Well, my latest pick up. Cole Haan LunarGrand Chukka.

Nice pick up. I've been wanting to pick a pair or two of those myself.

Thanks, kind of hard to find a good color combination since I got it at The RACK. Used the $20 credit-points I got from Nordstrom.

I decided to pull the trigger on the gamma blue 12's. Never owned 12's before.

I've been good at not buying sneakers at all or just exchange the old with the new.

I am very tempted in buying the OG retro Taxis (no low top bs) because I beat the hell out of my old XII's. And @ZetaVI, the XII's are definitely highly recommended sneaker to ball in or just comfortable enough to rock casually. I'd pick them over and over again than most shoes that are out now too.
