Could this be true??????? From Customer Relations @ GATORADE

[retrourfeet]

So I started another forum not askin if the VI will really release, but asking what we thought it'll be and what we hope it'll be. Anyways I am postingthis as it might get locked and didn't to take from the other thread as people being creative, sooooooooooo

So I email the GATORADE CO> and asked if they were doing "business with MJ still" and this is the email they sent back NO LIES

Could this be true?????????, or maybe they're not saying anything as it is like emailing NIKE and asking "Hey what are QS for the year?"

Has anyone else emailed GATORADE

Thanks for your interest in our relationship with Michael Jordan; however, reports of a Jordan-Gatorade shoe are not true. We value our relationship with Michael Jordan and he remains one of our Gatorade Athletes.

1) They may be hiding the truth as to not build up speculation.

2) Gatorade may have NOTHING to do with the shoe itself. Jordan Brand may only be producing a "Gatorade" inspired VI...

if JB were to put the Gatorade logo or name the shoe Gatorade in any way then Gatorade would have something to do with the shoe. But if its justthe colors than no.

I didnt email them but i called them and they said no one knew anything bout a collabo. Called Nike too and they said the same thing.

 

[stayfresh25]

they probably just don't have the authority to release information like that to the public

I understand I've been after infrareds for a min too and also its in my fav 5

 

[eebs7eez]

exactly true, these companies cant let us have absolutely every pic 3 months ahead, wheres the fun in that? look at the hype we have over the last cdp now, itsout of control without the pics and members are creating new topics here everyday just goin mad about it. jb finally figured one thing out from this forum...

 

[diddydadagger]

that was odd, just like people thinking this shoe will be a CW similar to the colors that represent Gatorade as opposed to the wht/infrareds.

or 3) Some Gatorade rep probably has no knowledge of a shoe that's still in the works.

Jordan Brand may only be producing a "Gatorade" inspired VI...
I was thinking the same thing...
