RyGuy45.. That means you and I got all 3 pairs of size 12 off that site.
I hear you on everything you said RainKing. I like these better than XIs tho because I'm not the biggest fan of patent leather. I like the design of the uptempos more.. Might be my favorite silhouette of all time in the right colors. Basically just the Bulls and the White/Blues though. Jordan 4 has the perfect cut for pants and shorts so just the gum bottoms have been my other main go-to.
I've been playing bball in the uptempos a lot. These things are far from bricks and feel excellent on the court. Cushioning is great & way better than previous retros. Softer phylon maybe? It feels pretty soft to the touch even. Heal-to-toe transition in these is some of the best I've ever played in. Jordan XIII is another off the top of my head. Probably why D Fish, and a lot of others, used these so much. & Nate Robinson used to staay in the Jordan XIII Playoffs. He knows what's up.
My other 2 pairs will be here Thursday. I would have grabbed the blue pair if the blue was darker like the KGs. Maybe I can buy blue angelus though and make it happen.
Also, it's actually 4 colorways... The Laker ones too.
