Not getting my hopes up due to the last 3 models being weak.

Updated fast fit system would seem to tie in with this model most of all

I thought that too, but I feel.if they use the skeletal structure from the Tatum 1, they will need a completely unique way to make it all work, especially if they plan to have exposed Zoom Air bags in the shoe! I believe that this shoe will have a major point to prove on the styling as well as the Signature line going forward, because let's face it the wide toe setup allows more then enough space for a comfortable feeling for the forefoot! But as we saw with the Tatum 1, the skeletal structure wraps around the toe of the shoe will help bring this shoes toe to a sharper end and I think it will improve the looks of the shoe also!!!

I forgot that with the 37 debut, Tatum was wearing them for warmups during the playoffs. Would be cool if that happens again for the 38

Yes I believe he will have a pair by then, but it's likely that a few pairs have already been testing by Jordan Brand athletes and we will likely get a glimpse of them sometime around Summer! Air Jordan shoes are like spyshot hunters dreams for the sneaker world, because they are so rare and unique that people always notice

The 37 is the only jordan that has sucked looks wise since tate took over, that and 33 was just not a shoe you could really wear, but it looked good. Idk why so many think he won’t bounce back. But if he doesn’t it’s time to go in another direction.

I have had every pair of Jordan from 1 onward to the present pair and I must say the shoes have always made the case for some ugly and some great looks wise and I must say the brand is trying to reinvent themselves and I just wish they would put Tinker back in charge

He’s beyond washed. I’m sure he will be back for the final pair though. Maybe the 45?

Yea, just wasn’t feeling them. Felt like more of a sig shoe for someone else more than anything.

Honestly not sure what y’all are wanting if those were weak. I agree the 37 is ugly but both of those were great looking and good on court as well as off,

I would.never say Tinker is washed up, he arguably the best designer of all time when it comes to shoes,..... Still making some major designs happening with in Nike even today! I definitely want to see his take on some of these new shoes!!

Tinker's last few designs for the aig line here either uninspired or straight up trash. Please keep him away. He is better at bull****ting that designing right now. Mans is washed
Tate tries, I just think he always adds somethings to shoes that kills the design for me. 36 had a lot of potential. The 37 where horrible though.
Might be time for someone completely new

Well that's just it when you take a free thinker and make.thrn work within guidelines instead of breaking new ground and territory it's bound to be less inspiring and trash,..... Jordan Brand has always been about innovation and inspiration, and when you tell a designer to design. A shoe I spired by this classic, no one ever nails it,.... Hell even in car terms the retro inspired cars like trh Ford Thunderbird will never be as beautiful and timeless as the original?
It's time to definitely go in a different direction and make Jordan Brand Awe Inspiring again,.... And I figured since Tatum.now.has his own shoes that the Jordan Signature line needs a new face and someone to take.it there again?!

The sig should be its own. Not inspired by an older model. I never agreed with the concept when they started that with the 31. It almost says that they no longer have the creativity and have to fall back to the past.

Exactly what I said,.... I actually love the concept, but felt that so many times they have missed the mark with them, they are innovative and could be a lot.more creative

I had been out on the new Jordan since the 23, but the 31 pulled me back in, the problem is they’re not consistent with the inspiration. For instance, I liked the design of the 32, but then we don’t get any Jordan 2 colorways, same with the 34. The 35 just copy and pasted the tongue and no AJ5 colorways. Then they knock it out of the park with the 36. The 37 gives us the colorways, but with a questionable design. And from what I saw of the 38, it’ll just be some subtle cues to the AJ8 design wise.

Definitely looking forward to seeing it and truly hope that it looks as good as I hope it will with plenty of design cues to make it a stand out

So you are saying is that you've seen the finished product already? So I have to ask..... Straps or No??

Far from it.
You're spreading total nonsense with such comments.
Have you played in every Jordan to date to make such a statement???
Please.

Premio I know you're more than excellent with NT stuff, I remember this being discussed in length in another JB thread in the last year or so, but there was an interesting discussion about this, for those interested if people can find it.
I'm sure you remember too.

Thank you! Always love your posts brother you’re a saint and a scholar. Did the 2010 and XX8 have good traction?
