Jordans suck.....all the money out of your wallet.....only 1 out of 50 will ever make you some money when you flip them on EBay and that ain't worth it!!!!!!!
love the feel of the original patent leather crimping down on your toes???? I bet they use newer technology to avoid that, LeBron's never have that issue....I have a few JordanXI's but I don't want to be a follower, (wearing one of the "best shoes ever", Look for a rise in the value of Kobe shoes, back to the Adidas originals...Kobe should have 3 lines of shoes, as his low-cuts are narrow, maybe with the twisted ankle, he'll think more about high tops, I doubt it, Kobe has proven, without the 6th ring, that he is up there with MJ....he never had the hands or body or legs of MJ, but he definitely has the heart and soul to be up there.
Who knows, EBAY flippers don't care!!! Busy tuning their banjos....
$0.....go to EBay....
@imdaniela Life isn't always fair, I hate Jordans.......and if you sell them, idiots claim they're fake.....f EBAY!!!!! f MJ!!!!! Air-$$$
Will be available at your nearest EBay dealer, LOL!!!!!
straight to EBAY!!!!!!!! Wonderful!!!!!!! Time to move on......paying double/triple is hack!!!!!
straight to EBAY!!!!!!!! Wonderful!!!!!!!
@rizl_85 name them...CWebb known for the Huarache style shoe, which Kobe brought bought as the 2K4 had hints of it, Rodman wore the N'Destruks, never anyones favorite because some people can't deal with assymetry (laces were tilted off to the side, I love em), Duncan...those army boot heavy Air Foamposite Max...that's why Duncan never jumped very high, I'd say more big men should wear them to stay grounded and develop footwork and avoid injury, Payton....Air Zoom's the Glove...people can't deal with a shoe within an outer skin, same concept used for the Nike Pippen V, the shoes wear "hot" and heavy, as the shoe doesn't breath through the outer skin, lastly VC...his shoes were the Shox, IMHO one of the ugliest shoes back then and to this day...any SHOX shoe....Nike can use the concept in my opinion, but hide those "pistons".....
@GriffeyEdwards only so many shoes you can put on the list, those were ok, but not great....
@denzel they called the retros "Crazy 8's" because Kobe was then under contract with Nike, so that would be illegal to use his name, so they took a slap at Kobe by throwing in the word "crazy"...Kobe Bryant probably could have sued and won for that...slander.
@denzel off the top of my head, I'll say the Crazy 8's were by Adidas not in the 1990's but a retro of the Kobe Shoes which went by another name, I forgot, but the II was really good, I think it's the Crazy 8...ok, now I'll look...here http://www.kicksologists.com/kobe-bryant-sneakers/...I bought them in all white, and they were great to wear, play in...either they were the KB8 or the KB8 III
@Andrew_Lazo Good catch, so many hypnotized people, as if the IV's were all that....
The sneaker world is really messed up when Adidas and Puma will not even retro and name their shoes accurately....I know, I grew up wearing the originals....Adidas Rom, Gazelle, Mexicana, Italia, Superstar....Puma Clyde or whatever...the retros are from Puma are just for walking around the malls....WOW, supercoool.....
look quick...those icy bottoms will be brown...no baking required, LOL, cuz this shoe is always #1...enjoy....
@elementasrat good question, if I find mine, I'll check, maybe they were mirrored....I checked the bottom of my AJ VII Raptor retros and they were mirrored...ball towards the inside of shoe....
The top is a very shiny black leather, probably because the area was flat, and there wasn't alot of leather that needed to be painted black...if not painted so thoroughly, the shoes would have looked cheap after just a few wearings. Sold my "new" from my collection AJ IX's (white/french blue/flint grey)'s for $365, but probably paid more for those (not over $175, I know)....and now we can sit back and wait for someone to say that the only great Air Jordans were the I's, the IV's and the XI's, which I highly disagree upon. my favorite's are the XX's...
Those shoes were sooooo unpopular when first released, stores and ebay sellers were trying to dump them for $39 a pair, I picked up 3 pairs. I thought they were interesting and a break from the normal colors of B-ball shoes, and would be great as casual, I still have 1 pair I had worn, 1 pair still new, and sold a pair on EBay for $200, not bad for $39 cost....but had to hold them for about 15 years...
JeffProjectSpurs, Bynum is getting bashed in LA for the move, and honestly, I approved of some contact, however Beaz was in the air, then on the ground, Bynum almost had his back turned to Beaz,...look, what if Bynum had better position and they just both body slammed each other mid air...Bynum's size makes him a "victim" in a way. Look, Kobe and Bowen/Ginobili went at it for years, the fact is neither hit the deck ...if Beaz had landed like a cat, and walked away, what would the penalty have been. I bring up the Raja Bell "assault" on Kobe, in '06....if Kobe were wheeled out on a stretcher, and it could have happened, not Pierce style, but in reality, I say Bell deserved a major suspension of 15-30 games the following season, that was assault. The fact that Kobe got up, and shook his head to blow bell off, negated a harsher penalty on Bell. Bynum keeps his composure, look, he is the biggest big man in the league now that Shaq is "Jabba the Hut"...he can't get a reputation of "free whacks on Bynum"....blame the refs, blame Stern...it was the refs that let Beazley's mouth run rampant all game long....that's why the Lakers should have kept M'Benga around, to "payback", not to "attack", but to "payback"....

Welcome to the club, I get to watch Phil Jackson let players 9-12 rot and not develop, then he puts too many minutes on Kobe, and Pau, (Mr. High Mileage, and Mr. Frail)....only a big VETERAN of playoff runs would help any team, and I don't believe there are any available out there....look we have Joe Smith on the end of our bench, he looks like he would run like "a woman" (no offense intended) if Kobe looks at him wrong (which is actually "right").
