Can someone explain to me what happened? Is it merely a downgrade in materials or more serious manufacturing flaws?

JB's trying to cut cost and at the same time raise the price of the shoes they sale. From a business standpoint this is a genius move, however this can (& has) pissed off a few loyal fans of the brand. To keep the "fair-weather OG-heads" around they drop very popular retro's (Spacejams, Carmines, True Blue's, etc.). All-in-all, the quality isn't what it used to be and shows no signs of returning anytime soon. I have grown up with friends. Seen them get married & have kids. We have grown old together, we have grown young together. I have seen friends pass, OD, & shot. I've hustled, gotten high, drunk, & sober with friends. We've grown apart, given our friendships to time, but these people continue to make me who I am, and as long as I know who I really am, I know who my friends really are - GreyScaleMethod.

I like them regardless. I can always buy them to have as a fresh pair for later down the years when QUALITY is no longer available Nowadays, it's all about cutting costs, raising prices, making huge profits, and screwing over the everyday consumer. They know we will just have no other choice but to buy their products no matter how crappy it is
