Why are Jordan XI le's slept on?

[trueprada]

yea the bred pair was sick..any other cw well maybe even that one id wait till they outlet it lol

 

[sir charles]

Low top XIs period just don't do it for me... Next.

I agree with 2 exceptions, the concord and bred lows. But the rest are

 

[KMante]

No they are NOT a true number. A TRUE NUMBER doesn't have any significant changes outside of being low top.

I already schooled some dudes on the other Jordan forums and I got tired of it really quick. Don't make me do this again.

These shoes are no different from the phat 1s and those aren't a true number.

 

[jumpman cbt2]

So by your definition birdman
These are not true Jays...

But these are ... ?

You must think these are True Jays too

LOL good one.
IMO, those Lows which came out during the original release are true Jordans.
Those lows which were invented during retroing afterwards look mostly lame.
I mean, how dare they to release low versions of the 5, 6, 8, 9 and 12 just look
totally off. They look awesome as mids but the low does not do them justice.
The XVII lows are IMO the best looking lows ever.

 

[Magic33]

I like the XVI, XVII and XVIII lows better than the other versions.

 

[jumpman cbt2]

Thats fine. You already seem set in your beliefs so that would be a mission Brodie.
But I'm not going to this again, especially right now. I'm in line for the charcoals.

Tell this to Nike and Michael Jordan. MJ wore the AJ XI I.E.s in the NBA playoffs 1996 in against the Knicks and Magic
and he did play well in them too,

 

[adefur]

love those shoes, found some and im saving up

 

[bip roberts]

OG CWs are dope.

The reason why people don't like them is that JB *****d them out in a million and a half lame CWs.



I recently had a chance to pick up the all black referee only OG version, but wasn't feeling the price so I passed.

 

[Magic33]

^---Yeah, I have the OG white and also the 2003 black/red and whites. I got them for around $50.

I really only like the OG colorways. Not a fan of the contrast stitching that they put on the other ones.

None of my soles on my white ones are yellow either .

 

[ijapino]

I personally always liked 'em. I wish they made some better colorways though.

One day, the all black referee PE's will release...one day.

 

[macky]

^I have the '03s of these and like them a lot. .

*not my photo*

me too. they are very comfortable too. at the time they were a must have for me. rarely wear them now tho

 

[airiab2005]

@ dank
Yup. Not true jays

You sir, have absolutely no idea what your talking about. People wonder why the game is what it is today. Its because guys like you are the ones out there " schooling" the new generation.

 

[bulls90s]

Loved the 03 black/red IEs. So comfy and durable.

But the 96 IE black/reds are . Hope they release those.

 

[milestailsprowe]

Got that black/red pair. Their great shoe but they are not the shoe eveyone really knows?

 

[retro23j]

I have the Cool Grey from 2007. I like them a lot. They squeak constantly occasionally though.

 

[jbug88]

Love em.

Wear them once every week and half or so..
Got this pair and the white pair in '05 when they randomnly popped up on Eastbay. $49.99

-J-

 

[shortyc94]

I Don't Think That They're Necessarily "Slept On" But Just Less Popular. I Can't Think Of Any Air Jordan When The Low Was As Popular As The Mid Other Than Maybe The 13.....And That Was Just The Black/Blue. People May Want Chutneys Now, But Now Then. The Argument About These Not Being A True 11 Is Dumb. How Are They Not True And MJ Wore Them In Games Opposite The Regular Black/Red 11 In The 1996 Playoffs? Some People Just Talk To Hear Themselves. NT May Have Changed Their Format, But Somethings Never Will. LOL.

 

[airthompson]

I personally always liked 'em. I wish they made some better colorways though.

One day, the all black referee PE's will release...one day.

Why? Those were hideous.

 

[eltouha]

actually, the simplicity of the refs made them the only one i liked.

I would love to see JB make a 'space jam' low in the I.E.'s! 

 

[coldcity]

always wanted the ref's PE

very underated model

actually wearing my low nlk/red right now

 

[evolution fight]

every pair i've owned squeaked..

those refs are clean though

 

[Magic33]

every pair i've owned squeaked..
those refs are clean though

I've had OG's, 2003's and 2011's, and none of mine squeeked

[Mound Raised]

I love/have the I.E. White cobalts & charcoal colors.
