Air Jordan Appreciation Thread (nike)

[The_Idler]

slight off topic...

If you watch The Fugitive, with Harrison Ford, when he jumps out of that pipe over the waterfall, he looks exactly like the Air Jordan silhouette as he's falling/flying through the air.

dduuuuuuude i REMEMBER that bit!

this was the first countdown (collezione) pack X + XIII = XX3

i don't like these jays. they sold out in sydney in minutes and now there's one pair on sale for AUD$900! they only came out in jan!

I got these next ones on the way. IX + XIV = XX3

got a few of them anticipating a bit of profit on this end :D


and yesterday i ordered this months. II + XX1 = XX3

i can't wait for these and the two shoes on the top of this page. those two packs were my top priority.

and this morning my wife authorised the XI/XII pack for xmas :D:D:D:D:D:D:D

IIs rip, but of course i only wear threesfoursfives...

my fave are the cement IV no doubt.
maybe i'll rock some tomorrow and add some photos.

 

[L2R]

i've never owned III's although they are one of the best designs. I have those grey/blue with yellow highlight IV's and my white/silver V's are on their deathbeds (rip big guys)

 

[jdizzle]

Jordans are way overpriced.

AF1s and Dunks all day.

Completely agree. My closet is full of dunks and ones. I got some j's in there too tho...

 

[L2R]

word is that they're taking the af1/jay "fusions" through next year until every jay sig is done.

 

[threesfoursfives]

you know they are re-relling the black cement III at the end of the year...
I started rocking mine more often now - game nearly dead.
the last of the last are my cement IV.. if they re-rel them i"m done.


BL=another NT = another ISS = another shoe site.

I used to own a few pairs of the air jordan shoes back in the day. I was utterly obsessed with basketball from the age of 10-14. I thought I was going to be in the NBA, but unfortunately I never got that huge growth spurt I was hoping for and I gave up on basketball once I was in high school. I also remember the converse "react juice" basketball shoes:

and of course the Reebok shaq attaq pump basketball shoes.

I agree that the air Jordan's were the highest quality out of all of them. Nike must have beat their slaves the hardest to get them to make decent shoes.

 

[L2R]

at one stage i even had a pair of nike air command force (one of the only two nike pumps)

at the time i would've killed for the 180 version (the other one)
