Keep in mind this is the 30th anniversary, so several shoes can/should have some form of XXX badge'ing

Looks like the same exact outsole as xx9 which is disappointing

this leads me to believe it is not the 30, maybe a take down team shoe... when have they ever used the same tooling/outsole on a sig model year over year?

Very true but, remember those air Jordan tees that leaked with the XXX logo? That's the exact same logo that's on the back of that shoe.

I'm thinking this is some type of early sample/wear test pair. No way they do the same exact outsole. Hopefully.

Like a natural progression from the xx9, I don't hate it. It looks pretty good, nothing crazy. Do you'll see that Kobe shoe in the back? Could that be the Kobe 11?

I see a sole that looks exactly like the past years (which isnt bad bcuz grip was amazing to hoop in), a kobe logo in the back and an outline of Africa on the tongue. Looks odd af but im exited lol. The material looks like a Bounty paper towel tho

Didn't people love the outsole and flight plate of the XX9 though? From a performance perspective, it might not make sense for them to divert too far from that.

I like the upper and shape overall better than the xx9. Can't get with the same outsole jig

This is my hope also. You'd think for the 30th anniversary they'd pull out all the stops but this is JB we're talking about. It wouldn't surprise me if they used the same tooling, threw on a new upper and claimed the XXX was a new shoe instead of the Air Jordan XX9.5.
We'll see what happens all star weekend but if they do decide to pull that even more of my money will go to adidas, UA, and Brandblack.

Will cop on discount just like I did with the 2011s, 2012s, XX8SE, and XX9.
It's inevitable.

Something tells me they're not the 30's... just the 29's with a new gimmick
