Actually they did cheif. In the early years of Jordan Brand. They were classics.

Agreed KingJay. Vindicates (sorry for pics from the "other" site - lol)

good point, but did they ever make a Vindicate II? I can't remember. Melo has multiple kicks dedicated to his name and it looks like CP isstarting up his own line as well. I guess when i meant "signature shoe" i meant having your own for multiple shoes.

 

[mustbetheshoe58]

i would have to say both...melo and CP3 are the future of jordan brand.

cp3 - he's got class and style to match his outstanding game - a very respectable "ray allen" approach to carrying the jb name.

carmelo is just an overpaid, one dimensional chucker with ugly, boot-like shoes. much like the spizike, carmello is just another jb misfire. he's noteven the most successful draft pick from 2003 - melo is leaps and bounds behind both lebron and wade in terms of overall success and skill level.

plus, i can never see cp3 starting a ruckus at msg with a weak sucker punch.

Chris Paul

 

[dougsexy5]

my choice is......

in brooklyn we call it dubbing

 

[vote4change]

Melo... though it's gonna be CP3's world in two years

 

[bjvig414]

CP is definately the new Face of the Jordan Brand. His image, style, game, team, potential and certainly his future are all shining brighter than that ofCarmelo's. The Jordan Brand will most definately start to ride this guys marketability and cash in.

Carmelo is a decent player without question, but like somebody earlier in the post stated, he isnt even the best of his draft class. Another thing Carmelo hasgoing against him as far as marketability, he's been in far too much trouble this early in his career to be thrown out there as a corporations lead guy. Healso needs to chop those ragedy corn rows and tell Balkman to do the same

Word.

Id say bibby or joe johnson, at least they get nice pe's. Melo and CP basically get knock off XX3s

 

[cnoriega]

^^^^ LOL, Yeah, they got it all wrong with CP's shoe.

 

[size 15 please]

Melo!..keep it real...

Melos kicks are always hotter and maybe itz just me but I see Melo more then I do CP3

I go to the mall and I see Melo ads all over shoe stores..

Rarely see anything CP3

As for who's better ballin?

They play different postions..how can u compair?

Nuff said

^^agreed...both are nice on da court and both got great PE's and both are doing good...btw melo PE XXs ftw in photo by OP

 

[dixxerelixxer]

MELO!!! easy choice, no brainer.

 

[xxhonchoxx]

Melo now, CP later.

 

[23sole collector23]

I agree with the others....it's MELO now but CP3 in a couple of years when he starts winning more......or may a championship if they get the right playersaround him.....

 

[retroking231]

IM reppin my boy MELO all day no disrespect to CP3

 

[jtofbmore]

idk

 

[brooklynnyc3000]

Chris Paul straight up. Carmelo's sneakers are hot garbage now. The only thing that is good is his XXIII PE's, which is not even his signature sneaker.

Chris Paul sneakers are getting more and more popular day by day.

 

[ceejay1523]

Id have to say its Melo now, but probably Chris Paul later. Melo's only got a short amount of time to get his act together and start winning before CP3does it again. If Melo does terrible again and CP3 is killin' it, Melos out of the picutre for the head of JB.

 

[sick ik 23]

CP3

 

[jleezy]

CP3. Melo is garbage. Doesn't even jump on his JUMPshot.
And Paul's shoes are much better.

 

[kmark2092]

im gonna have to say cp3....but to be honest, i think ray allen deserves to be the face of jb. i also think he deserves his own shoe...correct me if imwrong...but i think ray had one signature shoe, and that was it. but all of his pe's kill melo's and cp3. so i have to say cp3 because of all theattention he's been getting, but ray allen should be.
