Jordan XI '72-10' Release Date: 12/12/15

All this nick name theme going on in here please Children act your age you don't know what your talking about! You know what, Go 2 your room Spaced out cadets.

I call these the 72-10 XI's or just plain jane 2016 Holiday XI.
 
The bred nickname....I don't use it but I don't care if anyone does.

And I just want a pair of these anyhow. I am not a fan of any of the 8 releases this year. the CP was the first Jordan pair I have copped this year since the Chicago 1s. . Been a weak year for JB.

in the context of hyped and heat releases this year has been week. JB only catered to resellers by reading SOOO MANYY limited releases.

But to the average consumer, this year was very easy on the pockets even though next year will not be the case unfortunately.

Next year is going to be like The Purge, Cement 4 OG, Black and Red 12s, and Red and White 12 (haven't seen in confirmation yet).  Those are the ones I hope I get.
 
wouldn't mind seeing a sole swap with these and the real black reds

patent leather included

For the life of me, I just don't understand why they nicknamed these joints "72-10." What's up with including the 10 losses in the nickname? I, for one, will NOT be calling them "72-10's"

I'm officially calling these the AJ 11 "72's", because in my book it's the 72 wins that we are celebrating with this shoe.

On another note, other AJ nicknames I absolutely despise are (as mentioned earlier by another NTer):

1. Candy Cane 14s

2. Cherry 12s

3. He Got Game 13s

4. Raptor 7s

What they should be called imo:

1. Chicago 14s

2. Chicago 12s

3. Black Toe 13s

4. Bred or Playoff 7s

** Flu Game 12s and Last Shot 14s imo should be universally called Bred 12s and Bred 14s. Every numbered Jordan that has a good amount of black and red on the shoe should have a "Bred" nickname. Just sayin.
He Got Game's don't have a black toe, and I hate the nickname "Bred" for any shoe, it's a new age thing I think.
I HATE THE TERM "BRED"

Yup and yup.
 
Have to drop some bread so I could cop the Breds but I want a sandwich, where's the bread? :smokin
 
Can't stand the BRED term. If these stemmed from the XIs, those were known as the Playoffs when they originally released.

Yes! It kind of became habit to call them "bred 11s". When they released and everybody was calling them "breds", I was like "Oh, you talking about the "playoff 11s"?? And of course there are some ppl out there that looked at me like I was crazy when I called them that...

"Nah... the black and red 11s" .... I'm like :smh: .... ok ....

Let's be honest, if Space Jams dropped in OG form for $300 retail, we all wouldn't hesitate to cop.

I think a $300 price on an XI would be tough since they're still pulling retro prices up into that $190-$220 range. If JB did release space jams at $300 I think all those who truly want them would be happy, but the mainstream sale would be lost. JB would also have to push limited quantities.

Personally I think next year we'll see either cool greys or a retro plus colorway we haven't seen yet that isn't a black base. Two of the last three years we've had these 72s and the gammas (a truly underrated XI), just doubt we'll see another black base XI.
 
Question for the "bred" haters. It's generally accepted that the Jordan 1 trinity consists of the royals, shadows, and ________? (fill in the blank)

Not bait. Just curious what you call the cw if you don't like the word "bred".

Either black, red or in the case of the I, 'banned' would be better IMO and that retro I, JB coined the shoe perfectly. To add to the confusion the actual shoe MJ was fined on was the Air Ship.

Every black red colorway shouldn't be a BRED.

$300 won't happen any time soon unless a seriously limited release. 11s are at $210 now and won't jump $90 just for an 11 that isn't even the most popular colorway. I think they should release the Jams next year for black Friday at $225 or $230 as a GR and prob release a plus colorway of the 12s or 13s on the same day

I think you're agreeing???

These XIs are $220, minor difference to the $210 you posted but an increase over last year and each year before that.
