Air Jordan XX8 aka 2013, new "Proplate Zoom" Technology OFFICIAL THREAD.

[ultimatecharger]

The sole kinda reminds of the 2009. How the proplate separates the heel and forefoot of the shoe. 2009's had something like that but more of a heel. Haha

numbers cant save this crap

no they can't, but some interesting colourways might.... call me an optimist.

So my question is the 23's the last Jordan ? Or . . . Because I thought everyone + KBrand said that the LAST Air Jordan's are the 23's and anything after will be the name of the year ?!?!? I' lost ? 1-23 + 28!?

wow, it's so hard, isn't it.

Idk i like them actually

Purple green go hard!

These Jordans look way better zipped up, nice and clean. That zipped down look, looks too messy and like people trying to hard (yes I know that is an option is really given by JB, but I am just speaking on how it looks).

Pro
1. Labeled 28
2. Zipped up = Security
3. Zipped down they look somewhat appealing.
4. Made for balling.

Con
1. Zipped up they look hideously plain with pants. Especially the black colorways.
2. Zipped up = Looks embarrassing in general.
3. Unoriginal.
4. Ugly banana to boot shape, clown feet.
5. Price-tag.
6. Color-blocking.

Overall
JB found a way to make a boot in to a basketball shoe, but couldn't find a way to make it look good.

I wanna see how many athletes will actually use the pair

 

[jordanjayyy7]

I would never try to wear these with casual gear.

 

[sir charles]

I could definitely wear them causally. Zipped up, jeans on top. Only buying for $160 or less so will be waiting for outlets to get them

 Straight Trash, LMFA at anyone who pays full price for these LOL.....

I wanna see year or the snake version. Will be only pair I even think about paying retail for, since I have the YOTR and YOTD.

Hopefully it's done right with another nice box. I've liked the last two years versions.

Crabtree was in 28 "inspired" cleats tonight. Pic up on jb's Facebook. Nice red colour.

 

[grapeape]

These are Crabtree's XX8 inspired cleats he was supposed to wear in tonight's game.  I don't like either, but this style looks better than the XX8 bball shoes....

I would have definitely rocked these back in my playing days

These would've been instant classics IMO.

Ok, so I was not trippin when I was watching the game. I was just about to to post about it.

These are clean. I think a white upper, Carolina heel, navy midsole and clear sole would look good too. Technically Jordan could still release these since the upper and midsole are already in production...just put them together.
