I don't think JB is looking for excuse to make them ugly. They already know what their direction is going to be for the Melo line since day 1. Most consumer buy the Melo line to play ball in and that's that. These shoes are strictly made for performance. If JB worry about aesthetic too much they won't have room to push the envelop.Originally Posted by ninjahood

They're basketball shoes.Jordan is a sport wear brand. Line like CP, Melo, etc are geared toward performance on the court. There are people who buy bball shoes for its intended purpose. These are performance sneaker. Melo are not made for today skinny jean wearing kids.
All the melos since the 5.5 have been great performance shoes
How can you call a shoes garbage when you don't even play ball in them yet ?
performance doesn't give it a excuse to look horrific.
Jordan brand at the end of the day is still a sport apparel brand. These are made for people who want to play ball. Not everyone is going to pay $180 for a basketball shoes that's why they have team Jordan, Melo, CP etc for the people who really use the shoes for its intended purpose.
