That black/ white pair is sick...

 

[ssgefiestoakagerger]

I like the design no question, but they could've came up with a better name. ".5" always seems like: "you're there but not quite"or "it's almost done"

And being called 12.5 people draw DIRECT comparisons to the XII and XIII, and not a shoes of it's own.

I know it sounds kinda weird, so what am I talking about?

If you turn your history textbooks back to 1997, these so-called 12.5's would have released ten years ago in the form of:

Jordan Team 1

-the red circle being a take-down version of the XIII's hologram
-the inter-toe drawing resembelence to the XII. (Mind you, these are retros, but the original version came out the same time as the XIII's.)

And by the same example
Jordan Team 2- Air Jordan XIII and Air Jordan XIV, so 13.5?

- Ferrari- inspired Jordan logo- XIV
- Circles upper- XIII
- Sole- XIII

the side of the shoe that faces out with the hologram looks fire but then you turn to the other side and it looks like crap.

 

[loballin3]

they look really nice

 

[thepope3]

these look like a good shoe to play bball in

 

[abejd]

man these shoes look good
do you think you can get a better pic of the inner side not the side that would be facing out

 

[tha2one]

might have to copp to play ball in

 

[mt3130]

when it came down to my next pair of shoes to play in, it was either these or the melo m4. i went with the m4 because the ankle support on these was good butit wasnt a lockdown fit. they were really comfortable though.

Jordan 12.5 "Playoffs" >>>>> Air Jordan XII x AF-1 Fusion "Playoffs"

 

[dunks r nice]

Thanks for the pics. They look alright.

 

[king lincey]

I can honestly say that these look nice. But I'll be silently passing these to Arab.

 

[kingcrux31]

The flints are the best looking 12.5s

 

[jawnyquest]

the inner of the blacc shoe is dead sexy

 

[jmadidas2001]

Did you happen to get to see the Flint XIII colourway by any chance?
French Blue/Flint Grey?

Champs ONLY colorway...

[damnneardeadstock]

[jay y kay]

reading all the responses, i think if these were not called 12.5, people might have liked them more here on NT

 

[inchecksince81]

sorry man, I see you tried and all, but I can't give you the team 1's = true 12.5's, you're reaching a little far with that.

I always thought the same with the team 2's though, if that makes you feel any better.
on a side note, I want the navy blue/white pair, and a pair to come out in the same color blocking with either white/red/black accents, white/black/redaccents(no first color), or black/red/white accents





and on another side note, why wouldn't you call these 12.5's?

And being called 12.5 people draw DIRECT comparisons to the XII and XIII, and not a shoes of it's own.
the inner side = 12 and 13 both
mesh/perf like upper = 13
jumpman at the toe on the bottom of the shoe = 12
12.5"hologram" type thing = 13
mid-bottom of the shoe where the carbon fiber shows = 12


I think these do a GREAT job RESEMBLING their respective parts, without just snatching each part exactly as it is.

with that said, I can't wait to get a couple of colors. I just hope they stick around for a while because I'm kinda broke right now.
