YES! You realize he used ZOOM Pippen 1's instead of AIR during the playoffs!Originally Posted by clkru
I wish nike would have dropped those Pippen 1 retros with the full length zoom like he and the bulls wore.
I've been trying to point this out for years to people, but they all just fire back "his shoes had full-length air"! Despite the fact that there is countless photo evidence that his Pip 1's DID NOT HAVE AIR during the playoffs (his white, in-season 1's did), people always look at me like I'm crazy and make every effort to correct me.
Sorry, but you have no idea how thrilled I am to see someone else illuminate this fact! I've heard that Scottie developed a preferece for Zoom after wearing the AJ XII early in the 06-07 season and hated that his first sig featured Air, but production on the Pip 1 was already nearing completion so Nike just put out the GR with Air and gave Pip Zoom for the playoffs.
you can read that pippen 1 story in the first issue of KICKS. the designer was sharing his experience with scottie designing the first and secondpip shoes.
