WORD! Even if these were the best performance hoop shoe of all time, you can't come back with something like this, and if simplicity wassomething they were aiming for, at the very least come with a sick and extra ordinary colorway that would blow people's minds or at least be somewhatappealing at 1st glance, this white and black thing is just way too plain, there's nothing attractive about this shoe.Originally Posted by From Da South06

What are they even looking to accomplish? Is this supposed to pass for high fashion? The cheap foam wedge would disagree.
This is, or was, a performance product first and foremost - and you're asking people to wear WHITE SILK on their FEET.
In terms of technical innovation, the gussied up impax column is a total dud.
Marbled plastic? This is a dollar store version of luxury. It makes no sense. If the silk, which was an atrocious selection to begin with in terms of performance and sustainability, is so expensive, what's the point of pairing it with decidedly low grade materials? It's like setting a precious gem in a plastic ring.
If people didn't want the XIV retro for $150, who on earth wants a dumbed down XIV.5 for a whopping $190 in the middle of a recession? I would be stunned if this shoe isn't a total failure at retail.
As someone who's been wearing Air Jordans since 1990, I won't be buying the 2009 and, frankly, I'd like to know just who would. To me, it's a failure on every level.
Amen
Your the man...JB do something smart for once and listen...instead of releasing these to footaction,finishline,footlocker and etc, they should just release it exclusively to outlets and clearence racks cuz thats exactly where there headed
