Air jordan 7 Playoffs retro 2022 - 30th anniversary

[Girl Thats Jules]

Not just metal guys...The 6’s and 7’s were the New Balance 99x of their time...Everybody from just about every walk of life had a pair...Black / Infrared 6’s and Playoff 7’s in particular were the ones people were really after but all the colorways got love...

To me, Mike reached the height of his popularity right after the Bulls won that first championship...Really took off globally with the Olympics in ‘92, and really didn’t start to come back down to earth until the end of the decade...People literally wanted to “Be like Mike” during those championship years in particular...I say it all the time but it’s hard to verbalize just how popular the man was...
”Popular” doesn’t even begin to describe it actually, to the point that unless you were alive at the time, then there’s no modern comparison to relate it to...

I kind of felt like the Black-Infrared 6 was the peak-popularity shoe.

But nowadays it's overshadowed by the 1s and 11s.

For sure...I feel like that was the shoe that taught everybody what an “Air Jordan” sneaker was...The 6’s in general but the Black / Infrared’s in particular...

In- but only if they get the shape right.

These hitting the 30 year mark makes me quiver.
Do em right. 92 shape. if I see that fat body retro I've been seeing for the past 20 years, I pass.

Rope laces on the ‘02’s and ‘12’s are annoying

 

[hydeous]

My first pair of jordan was these back in 92. Will cop if Its close to the OG

 

[el platano]

Definitely ready for 2022 now. And hoping that rumors circulating around about Citrus 7s next year may hold true

And anyone walking around in 1s in 1991 was the biggest buster, too. Like, your friends wouldn’t want to be seen with you

In my era, IVs were by far the most popular when I grew up.

concur, very few rocked 1s. The 1 is kinda now this hipster, hypebeast shoe that everyone is in love with.

I know this has come up 100 times ... wearing the old model, any model, very far into the latest model's run was generally considered uncool. But wearing the 1s was on a whole different level of outdated. It was like wearing a shoe from the 1800s LOL

Stop living in the 1800s. The older the better nowadays.

 

[The Fresh Prince]

These should have been the February 2022 release instead of the 12s.

 

[3god]

No one wants 12s. JB is behind the times.

2 pairs if true

 

[a blinkin]

One of the first pair of Jordans I can remember having when I was a child. Regretted selling my ‘12s. In for a pair of true.

 

[danewera]

All In

 

[jordanfreak23]

I think vedder also wore the infrared sixes

Wore them on MTV Unplugged I think.

 

[apachendn]

2012's today at work.

 

[mj4ever2320]

If done right....then I'm in...dont got to be perfect but there ought to be some contrast

 

[Magic33]

In- but only if they get the shape right.

I don't expect it

for me it was the 4s. Literally no one was wearing the ones. Kids back then want the new tech. No one likes ‘retro’.

 

[Bend_The_Knee]

Obviously not the same as the DMP pair but i do have those DS so I'll likely pass on these.
