Jordan CP3 VII

^i meant Ebay. Kicksclusive to be exact.

Sorry, I don't need to be using that language, coulda just said ebay...
 
Can't front these might be my next hooping shoes. Kinda tired of hyper dunks, ready for a change
 
The Vi's were a performance beast, the AE's got better so i can only imagine these getting better.

I hope you're right!  

Already pulled the trigger and they will arrive today.  Can't hoop tonight, but hopefully will have a first impression tomorrow evening.
 
Just got these in and tried them on.  Will really have to play in them for a while to make an assessment.

The setup reminds me a lot of a pair of XX2 5/8s that I had a couple years back.  That was a comfy shoe, but felt a little bulky on court.  Hope these prove to be much better than that...
 
Man i love CP3 but JB and his shoes :{ I kinda liked the 6s and I might cop a few now that they're in deep discounts. Those Bel Air VIIs will be a cop (purple not white ones) I liked those desert camos he had in his video that were IDs. Hopefully they become a regular c/w. I'll probably hold out till these VIIs hit sales tho.

Played in these for about an hour and a half today.

Real quick first impression: 

These have a really plush feel, but my concerns about them being bulky proved to be wrong.

The cushion setup is excellent... and I can only imagine will get better as it breaks in.  Those pods, along with the met zoom unit do a really good job of giving you spring and shock absorption just where you need it.  Responsiveness is top-notch.  Though apparently the heel is just a dense phylon, I thought it felt great.

Traction was great -- maybe not as great as something like the CP3.VI or Kobe 8, but it definitely did its job and I was playing on a semi-dusty court.

Overall:  What really surprised me, was that despite such a plush, premium feel, this shoe still kept me on my toes and allowed me to make all the cuts, quick jumps, stepbacks and anything else I wanted to do with ease.  The cushion really shines through here. 

Hoping I'll get to play a couple more times this week and give more of a review.  Nightwing just posted his review on these too if you want to check it out
 
Thanks for the review, like that these have a met head Zoom Air unit. The VI's were amazing on court so I am expecting these to be as good
 
they need to rethink the jumpman on this line, for me it always throws off the shoe from the side

MJ never even got that big of a Jumpman on the side... on his line like the CP3.V & CP3.VI

he doesnt seem too thrilled about them, how much input does he have?

 
 
Purple CW Is very hot and these are receiving fantastic performance reviews. Can't wait to scoop up a pair or two.

Agreed -- the purple CW is nice.  I have heard some iffy reviews on the translucent sole in terms of traction if you'll wear on court.

I've had zero problems with the solid color outsole on my black/white pair though
 
Tried these and I have to say that when my cp3 VI AE is beat, i'll definitly get a pair for ball.


Great ball shoe :smokin
 
I need to see the purple in store. I wanna cop but sometimes in person makes a difference. $100 on these aint bad after the using the bday coupon. I definitely like the VII more than any model before. Those Breds are a cop as well.
 
Very happy with my pair. The overall look is excellent, and I still say these remind me more of the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air than the 5s. Just need to go ahead and ball in them to really get a feel for them. My friend got the same pair and wore them yesterday, said he didn't have any complaints.
 
Just grabbed a pair of the white bel aire's anxious to see how these respond on the court. I was deciding between the KD or these from my newest bball shoe. Hope I made the right decision. Will leave review later
