    Hmmmmm…. I say Nike coukd do better with quality and maybe get some more stuff in a lower price range, but other than that I have no issues.

    As for fusions, I think fusions are not a bad idea and half of them are pretty cool (so are the hybrids) so I don’t see the fusions as a cause for beating up Nike or Brand Jordan

    im with everyone on this one biggest thing are fusions and not just JBxAF1 lets not forget the pippen fusions and a few other nike creations…

    FUSIONS/all the other Jordan CRAP!!!! (like everyone else has already stated.)

    And even more importantly……….HOH/Mercer exclusives and releases.
    Everyone deserves a chance at pearl foams and parra am1s not just New Yorkers.

    Hoh only releases, friend n family releases, fusions.

  5. Nike needs to bring back regional and store exclusives. Nothing is better than making sneakers that are only available to certain regions . It helps build up the sneaker scene in areas and makes people want to search beyond the internet for sneakers.

    fusions are going anywhere as long as they keep selling.
