Haha I agree. My hubby's fav color is green and the first thing he asked was where was his pair. I told him they were women's only basically and he was a lil bummed. He doesn't rly wear J's much so if he liked them you know they were decent.
 
I got the xiv in white and pink low and those Vs pictured above... bought just for one outfit... only worn a handful of times.

girls wear men sneakers why cant we wear women sneakers. Its the same cut just a different color.

I dont really care what men wear tbh...although it does look a little off in some colors...like pink. I met a dude the other day who told me his favorite color is pink and he was very masculine so it is what it is.  Hot pink just looks off to me on dudes...bubble gum pink depends on the design and shoe.

I don't think you can use the "Girls wear mens so why can't we wear women's argument" for Jordans.  JB and most sport shoe companies have never really been about gender equality with their styles but that's probably also due to the fact that there aren't as many female athletes.  Example: When Nike made actual "Women's Jordans" lots of women preferred the woman's cut and colors over the mens.  Then Jordan brand alienated the females who wore a size 9 and above which often times is the adult female athlete shoe size.  Literally for the last 6 years women were forced to wear men's Jordans if they wanted J's. Adidas is similar...they dont make hardly any women's basketball shoes.  

In regards to women's J's vs mens. They are NOT the same cut.  As a female I can feel the difference.  I've had the womens sunset v, grey/pink v, jordan 1 low denim, coral pink vi, lavender x, mint x, jordan 2 low wht/pink, jordan 11 low snakeskin (00 version), and jordan xi le.  The cut is narrower than their male counterparts.  Women's shoes are made narrower which I appreciate b/c my foot is narrower. The new extended size J's also have a narrower cut.  You can look at the shoes and see the difference.

Yeah they announced that a few weeks ago. I think they're dope and I've gone back and forth on if I should cop or not, but at the end of the day May has toooo many great releases to add these to the list.

Infrared 90
Bred 11 low
Shattered backboard 1
De la soul low
Chicago 1

There's no way in life I can add this to the list right now.

So will we ever see JB drop the retro 4+ blue speckle that was supposed to be after 25 years of waiting?
