Negative.
I Just pay attention to details on notations they put out. If they allow me to share the info, I definitely will for the community.
Just slowly waiting on the JCIII Mids like everyone else.
But currently working with the low's
 
I just saw the gumgumgum thing on their instagram account, I was sure it wasnt writed yesterday...
 
Are the j crossover II lows going to be releasing? I've seen lots of people showing sample pairs online but no talk of them releasing

Pretty sure Spring 2016 they will drop.  They might have mentioned something about some limited spot releases this Fall?  Any release info brandblack has put on social media I have taken w/ a grain of salt though because things have changed from nearly every date announced (not bashing, just saying).

The cushion on the J.C III has me curious

Can't read into to much, But this release/launch will be much more structured.
New cushion setup. and Responsiveness is A1.
 
No shroud? Looks way better but doesn't look like the support is there without the shroud. The midsole/outsole similar to Kobe X smh. Now 50/50 on buying. Will have to see if the lows will look like the shroudless mid.

How's the traction and lock down /support? I was kinda hesitant to go full speed in the 2s because the toe support wasn't as good as other shoes. Traction is great it just picks up lots of dust so you're constantly wiping

I would say that would be an incorrect assumption at best. You can play with or without the shroud.
Fashion & Sports is Brandblack's aim.
Using comparisons is pretty much the easy way to describe certain things you haven't seen yet, but to automatically cancel out b/c you think its outsole looks like from another brand, I would say I'd highly disagree.

The Brand works diligently to improve and make aspects of the shoe as an utmost performance shoe. Suffice to say, Jamal was wearing the VOLT version of the JC3 in yesterday's Seattle Pro am vs Drew league game, and he did fine.

I can't comment on many things in regards of the shoe, but I'd have to disagree with your input, but mainly for the fact I have tested and have the shoe. And the low is perfectly fine also. The cushion setup, is Stellar. If you thought the JCII cushion was great, and it still is; To even consider one-upping it, it amazing. Its an ode' to Brandblack for taking things to another level and not afraid of trying new things.

On a pretige court, barely any wipes, but then again, if your playing in general courts, it's going to pick up dust, Well, that's usual for any court you play on in regards of any shoe in general, not just the JCII.
I was perfectly fine with the JCII, I had some moments with dust, but a little wipe off never hurt. It's Norm. If you don't go fullspeed, then you really don't realize the potential of a shoe. Hard to make a judgement on a shoe if you don't give it 100%, and that's with anything that you do.
 
It's just my visual 2cents of the shoe as I don't own them, obviously so it has no validity. Looks like a piece of overlay stitched on. I know it has a internal heel cup. I should have said not as supportive as with the shroud on.

As for the midsole/outsole looking like the Kobe X not saying they copied Nike. I was saying the translucent casing and the end of the outsole wrapping up to the midsole are similar to the Kobe X. I dislike that because you can see imperfections underneath (you can see it in that photo as well so it's not an assumption because it's like that on the Kobe's).

No doubt they'll feel amazing and perform very well having owned the close to perfect jc2.
 
nyjumpman23 nyjumpman23 what I'm saying is that when I would go full speed there were times I couldn't get a good plant because there was some slippage in the toe area so I was hesitant to do so. I played in them exclusively for months and immediately noticed the difference when I switched back to the anatomix spawn lows. The shoe has s lot of potential it just has a few areas to improve.

Understood thank you for clarification. I believe some people chose to 1/2 size down for the snug fit, would that maybe the cause of instability? Again, we all wish there was a perfect show, but there is always a catch 22. I believe for a company to come out for less than 2-3 yrs to come up with such a product is pretty amazing

Understood, and by no means behind defensive of course it's always a fun discussion with people like yourself. I can't tak about problems or issues b/c although the product is out visually, there may or may not be more finishing touches towards the final product itself, and of course happens to all shoes. But it's definitely a great ride.
 
Damn, decisions, decisions. Buy a pair of JCII's in grey now or wait to check out the new JCII cw's and the new models. I really hope tts in the JCII's fit me, since I can't fnd them in a smaller size.

I say get the grey jc2 if you find a good price. Maybe the best colorway imo. The 3 aesthetically doesnt look too crazy
