Official Air Jordan 20 Thread (Black/White - Cool Grey 6/6/2015 $220)

Amen on this. The shape on these is definitely off and one of the key design elements - the velcro strap on the midfoot area is constructed so sloppy.

I recommend that you guys source out OG pairs if possible.

i plan on taking mines to get painted black if i get the retro stealths.. so i can have that OG look. that gold will throw away my outfit big time.

There aren't many fans of the 20s, so hopefully there won't be too big of demand.

i hope so but you know resllers cook up limited kicks

the iced out sole on all of the lasers, coupled with the price, is enough to make me pass on all 3.

as for the stealths, i don't like the leather pull tab under the strap, the gold lasering is a little OD, and again the price is pretty ridiculous. add to that the fact that my OGs have literally only been worn a few times and once again, easy pass.

This was my thought process too. They made it easy for me.

My dude, if you have wearable OGs - why are you even considering this overpriced trash?

I can understand if they mess up joints that dropped in the 80s and 90s as both factory locations and manufacturing/construction methods have changed, but XXs dropped in '05 and have been made using newer methods and have been manufactured in China too. There is literally NO reason for them to mess up retros that've dropped in the past decade.

simply put? stealth 20s, imo of course, are hands down THE best sig Js after 14...

 

[earlgotsole]

So is this a finishline and nike only release as far as major retailers?

 

[airthompson]

charmcitykid I agree, Stealths are the best model after 14. But best sig night quite.

These lasers will be QS btw.

According to the launch locator, none of mine are, but I haven't been in store to find out specifically.

Y'all forget that 20s aren't a sought after model and combine that with the $250 price tag.  Seems like many are trying to add hype to the shoe.

I think he's talking about the stealths.

 

[cucumbercool]

if i cant exchange a pair of shoes bought for me in the wrong size and pay difference I'll be quite hesitant on buying these as much as i like them

 

[glassankles]

Any updates on the laser pair?
