I can't look at a pair of basketball shoes and think each shoe is worth a 100 dollar bill. $75 per shoe was crazy enough but a flat $100 is just too much.200 isn't that bad compared to other shoes.
I mean its only 50 more than almost 20 years ago.
That kinda shocked me a little too seeing as jb has been upping prices.
150 to 175 is where its at tho.
gonna feel weird buying some jordans again
2 years will do that.I think people were expecting some futuristic Nike Mag meets basketball sneaker for the XXX. something that self laces, lights up, and makes you jump 10 feet in the air
Here's whose designed since the XX3, Tinker has mostly had his hand in all of them but really took back over for the 2012 and onim not sure tinker designed every sig jordan after the 23.... but there are definitely some gems that have released since those (IMO). my biggest gripe has been colors and sometimes the upper patterns (like with the xx8 and xx9).
the best xx8 was the black/green color. was soooo clean. the whole crazy design uppers on those were just too much.
the xx9.... well, i like the xxx so thats saying something then
Doubtful. JB is focused on making a lightweight competitive basketball shoe. It would make zero sense to put a self lacing system in there and "flashy lights". All that is going to do is increase the weight and make the shoe look like a damn children's light up shoe.
2 years will do that.

You missed my point.

There is a reason that self lacing systems never caught on after the TMAC IV. They were dumb and heavy.
I think so, I couldn't find anything that said he had a co-designer on it.gotcha... so he only has the 29 as his lone solo project after the xx3.
Your point:
You missed my point.
And the TMAC came out like 15 years ago.
Her name is Tiffany Beers, but she's not a designer she's an Innovator at Nike. Tinker designs and she helps the product development by creating what he designed. She was a big part but not technically a designer. She also helped with the Air Mag's by creating the light system for the 11 release and the self lacing system for this years.
Im pretty sure Tinker and some woman co designed the XX9
Like I said, you missed my point.
Your point:
In 2 years there will be self lacing systems on high end performance jordans.
My Point:
It is unnecessary and adds weight so their wont.
You are basically telling people that they are too dumb to tie their own shoes so we will add a mechanism that will increase cost significantly and add no real value while decreasing the performance of the shoe.

My point:
When you make people wait 2 years for something that has always taken 1 year to produce then don't be surprised when your customer base develops wild expectations.
Tinker loves the hate haha
