NikeDealer/RD, I respect you as someone who has strong knowledge about Nike/JB but do YOU honestly think that MJ signs off on every single item (piece of trash) being churned out by JB?

In his playing days I could see there being some creative input from him as the shoes had to fit his playing style, etc... but it's absurd to think that the man has any say in the day to day activities of the brand.

This.And most air jordans were designed withoutHis consideration and involvement.Even the 3 and 11 were made without hisinvolvement. He only approved it or rejected,Just like rhe aj 10 with the toe cap issue.Jordan cannot design anything, just give hiscritics.
 
These are one pair that I'll have to actually see in person before I decide what to think. And that's not a good or a bad thing.
 
the customization options look sick but man this shoe is just ugly

yeah that's the one that comes with all three pairs of midsoles, two inner booties and a bunch of different laces.
 
need to see the default black/white cw. with the right pants, it's got potential because of the wingtip silhouette. that's just me anyway

I'm pretty sure Tinker did. At an SC event, he mentioned the design of the 2012 already being submitted and done. Fail Tinker, Fail.

Wait they aren't there anymore?? Wow
  
 
as are alpha 1 and fly wade 1. i hope to hell they don't go away any time soon, i still have plans..... but no spare cash yet.
 
For the life of me I can't understand why Nike can create dope sig shoes for KD, Kobe, and Lebron but Jordan Brand is left with design fit for chinese store bargin bins... The retros are so dope and we're talking about design concepts that were created 20-25 years ago. Is this the best JB can come up with in 2012? Nike needs to step in for real.
