because gentry was a loser most of his adult life and was shunned by everybody. he got no respect. no woman and people clowned him for being just an odd looking kid.

he got a job being a stock boy at nordstroms and decided sneakers were his passion since he could wear something that made people turn heads despite how awkward looking he was. despite all his embarrassing moments growing up and the painful memories of being labeled a loser.

it's a power move. he weaseled his way into jordan brand and says the right thing to the right people. he makes them a lot of money because the AVERAGE person waking up at 7AM on a saturday or hitting F5 friday at midnight are 16 year old kids with little bills and no idea of what savings means.

he knows instead of selling a pair for $150 he can make you spend double and even sell you a sneaker you don't want. it's brilliant, he isn't but the jedi mind trick they play on jordan collectors.

you want the OG's fork up another $300-400 and get you some. gentry is a pathetic soul and i hope karma gets him because he bastardized the jordan company.

i dont know whats the worst thing phil knight has ever done, allowed his son to create a rap album with the help of the bomb squad or allow gentry control over the greatest sneaker brand in the history of the world.

What you said does fit him I mean just look at this man.
