    I picked up a pair of 13 Breds from ebay. Paid way too much for em. I figured "what the hell, I'm officially out of the Retro Jordan game until they make them widely available for purchase like they used to be." You know the days when you could call/go online anytime within 2 weeks or longer of a release and still be able to cop a pair? Likely, this won't happen anytime soon but I'm cool with it. I sold my 10's black, 11's cool grey and 12's playoffs last year to try and finance the 4, 11, 13 all breds but couldn't get a single pair from Eastbay or Finishline so I'm done. I will post picks of my 13's when I get em.

    I wanted them but even the retail foot locker $170 + tax & shipping was too damn much for me.

    They look great though, but my flints from a couple years ago are still minty so they suffice just fine.

    I really like the Flints as well. I wish i coulda paid retail for em they were 200 plus on ebay. Luckily I had some $ left from Christmas, which softened the blow. The funny thing is that it was really hard to spend that kinda cash on some J's but Fort Max is gonna cost even more but I preordered that without the slightest hesitation.

    awww man i hate to hear that stuff when people have to settle to purchase off of ebay. if on another release you need it and can't get your hands on it let me know im more than willing to help out the community since i don't purchase jordans anymore.

    Do you have some kinda connect? Size 15's are kinda hard to get.

    yeah I feel your pain dude. 16/15 for me depending on cut. usually 16 though. gotta resort to online for any major J release. discount and outlet retailers are fine for stuff that's not in demand and is released in big numbers, but if you want a large size collector type jordan, good luck in regular retail stores.
