To be honest, the sneaker demographic is kind of geared towards a younger crowd.

My first thought when I see a new model unveiled is
"Can I see MJ playing in these?"
For these, maybe. Maybe the final product will be somewhat reworked, we dont know yet. But I can almost see MJ lacing these up and making them look good

I remember that
Just like I remember when the JBC Jordan I's were first posted and how the reactions changed when it became known how unattainable they would be.
10 years?
You seem to be caught up in the hype. If Adidas stopped putting out those colorways in limited amounts most of you dudes would have hopped off a long time ago.
Ultraboost are nice, but NMD's are blah and aren't even that comfortable.
And what Nike is doing with Flyknit is far better than what Adidas is doing with Primeknit.
A lot of you guys are going to be looking at all those Adidas in a couple of years and wonder what were you thinking.

If any remembers Jordan brand did this awhile ago like 2011 when they redid the Jordan 1. Calling it the Air Jordan Alpha 1. Seems they repeating it again... I aint gonna lie I coped the Alpha's to hoop when they hit the outlet...they was comfortable as hell tho
"the Air Jordan 1. While the styling of the AJ1 holds up to this day, its performance features do not. This led Jordan Brand to reengineer the sneaker with modern Zoom Air cushioning and a synthetic upper."

like some said, if the jumpman was smaller and moved to the heel, these might be ok, at least with the initial c/w. still, all in all, when compared with those classic, original, INSPIRED designs of jordans 2-23, these just aren't seeming on par from the standpoint they don't look like anything we haven't already seen before. i guess we'll just have to see how these "grow" on ppl over time. although they weren't inspired enough for me to actually buy any, i feel like the 30s were the best sig design since the 23.

I would probably rather wear any shoe Jordan has made rather than put Yeezys on my feet. No disrespect to anyone who "actually" likes them. Personally, I think the shoe is hiddeous and belongs in the trash.

They are really getting out of hand with the oversized Jumpman. The classic Jordan's had minimal branding and didn't use life size Jumpman's to get their point across. They let the beautiful design show. I keep saying less is more, but Jordan Brand keeps going down the same path with these newer models. I don't get it.

Exactly. Younger kids don't care that its Jordan if its not the hyped retro releases. For kids that generally hoop or have interest in buying legit basketball sneakers, they're going to sneakers of their generations superstars (Lebron, KD, etc).

I've never really understood the hype around Jordan 1s though. They feel really terrible on the pavement. I've never owned a pair just because they don't look like they should cost 150. Maybe someone can shed light on this situation for me.

this.
they're basically dunks lol.
i get the historical aspect, i own some black reds, but theyre definitely not my favorite jordan.
I've said this before but i think nike didnt realize how they would sell so they just put "air jordan" on an existing model. when they realized the potential, thats when you go all out....snakeskin, no swoosh, totally new design.....the II.

Anybody who questions the Jordan 1 didn't grow up in that time frame. Simple as that. Beautiful shoe then, beautiful shoe now. Forever a classic.

You would have had to have been 40 to 45 years old to even understand what was going on in that time frame....

I won't lie, I have a pair of the white/black/red & a pair of the black/reds in my collection. Very comfy and I like them. Never understood the hate the shoe got. I thought it was a good idea.

I have a pair of the white/red/black ones, and I honestly like them, it was the beasts that hated them because they had little if any resale value, but people who actually wear their shoes/play in them liked them.

I don't know man. Not to bash anyone's opinion, but I'm not a huge fan of the shoe. Its never personally done it for me. Again, I understand there are people who "legitimately" like the design of their favorite shoe. I do t really like the design of the 1-5....just my opinion, however sh***y it may be lol.
