:rolleyes Come on, man.
Not to mention, faking your death in itself isn't necessarily illegal, but to really make it work for you, you'll in fact end up breaking laws. Like tax evasion, for starters.

@lewi1913 you and me both, To me the 2016 pair is a black concord PE, not space jams. Just my opinion though.

I’d easily triple up if they made a proper retro, still have the 2000 pair DS. One of my all time favorite shoes.

I mean ... isn't the only difference a concord jumpman vs a blue jumpman? And concord outsole pods vs blue pods? This is mostly rhetorical, you don't have to jump on me about what a HUGE difference that makes LOL.
 
my pairs had different shipping receipts in the box for each pair. one had the Jumpman saying congrats on the AJ 11s and the other had a regular receipt with a shipping return label.

it doesn't bother me, just strange. both came from SNKRS
 
Wearing 'em again at home. The more I look at my pair on my feet and at all the pics people post, it really makes it obvious how important the padding throughout the cordura upper is. Like, HUGELY critical. It's what gives them a lot of the shape, pop, and space-shoe appearance. It gives the white upper contrast and shapes between the actual upper and lace loops. If everything else about these was the same but they had left out the padding, this release would not be nearly as good. Makes me sad now when I look at my '16 Space Jams. If those had the padding, game over. I hope the fact they also put the padding in those garbage sail/red pairs means we can count on it in all 11 mid retros from now on. If they put it in those, seems to me that it's a philosophical shift on Nike's part about how 11s should be constructed now.

Did you play in the space jams from 16? I loved everything about the shoe except the roomy toebox which gave callouses and blisters. I plan to play in these and hope with the better insole, it will be a bit more forgiving

I had to do the inspection on my pair tonight given all I've read in here lol. Seems like my PL cut is lower on my right shoe than the left but not by a ton (in fact, I could just be imagining it). I also noticed the ridge points in the PL cut for the first time ever. Naturally I have the nubbies on the midsole. Outside of those and a couple of loose threads though, no complaints.

There are some main points to focus on with these when checking them out.

1. The 45. Is the print centered and level across both pairs? Is the black part the same size?

2. The white leather. Is it 'tumbled'? Is it the stiffer smooth leather? One is better for performance, one is better for casual use. Both on one pair? Sucks 4 u

3. The midsole. Is it creased up, cut up or uneven?

4. The front rubber toe cap. Is it centered and evenly placed with the other one?

5. The mesh. Is it placed down straight or crooked and askew when looking at the part between the laces and the patent?

6. The lacing strips. Check out the lowest curve of the patent at the outer toe. Where does the strip meet the patent in relation to that patent U curve? Is it behind it? In the valley? Now check the other shoe. Now check the length of the bottom last tiny strip on the inside, is it the same on both shoes? This is critical because it probably indicates mismatched patent leather heights, not simply a mismatched strip length.

7. The patent. Going back to that U curve, is it the same height from the midsole on both pairs?

8. The Jumpman. Congrats if youve made it this far without an issue. You are in a very small percentile. But before you go, check out your jumpmen. How high is each one placed from the peak of the hill?

Only Nike could make such a simple shoe such a ****show

Don't do the crime if you're not prepared to do the time. He's stealing from people, a lot of whom probably have limited funds. Eff him.

I hate scammers as much as the next man but snitching? Its a cold world, scammers only exist because people are gullible. Unless it's a violent crime where someone is getting physically hurt or abused then leave the snitching isn't needed. Karma will find him.

I sure did. I find these have a little less room than the black/concords had. They both play very similar to be honest. I find these just fit a little better.
