Jordan 13 doernbecher on the way

I can't help but think if they used a different color instead of green, these would look a lot better IMO.

I usually love all DB releases (all except the 5s, 9s, and 10s), and I understand the idea behind the shoe. But I would only support this cause by buying a pair and then flipping. I wouldn't wear these at all. Still love the db 1, 2,3,4,6, and 8 even though I'll never buy em at resell

Then donate the rest of the proceeds you made off flipping back to the hospital, right?

I actually really like the design of these 13's. Loving the color blocking along with each individual detail. I would definitely rock these. Hopefully I can grab a pair.

$26k for a XII is absurd and laughable but completely awesome for the hospital.

Nike is smart for doing this

Why not take a few pairs of jordans that cost them nothing to make, auction them off and take advantage of how high people are willing to spend to benefit a good cause.
 
The lebrons look so good but that silhouette is complete trash IMO. Lebron dropped the ball with that one, really disappointed about it. The 12's were a little boring but at least they still looked decent, these are just ugly as hell. Nike knows too and that's why they're making these nice colorways right away like the DB's and the Halloween splatter because it's the only way they will sell these hot pieces of garbage.

To each their own. I like them.
 
Guys I think we are missing the point here. As a cancer patient and one who has to currently undergo weekly chemo treatments, I can say it would be great to have a shoe designed by myself so that my legacy could slightly be etched in history. Having a shoe represents who you are and designed based upon life experiences. Some life experiences are ugly so I'm sure if most of us had a chance to design a shoe half of us would say they think its trash. It's about bringing attention to a cause by giving back to those who are suffering. I don't agree with all of Nikes tactics but let's not get this DB thing twisted. It's about the shoe but then it's really not.

I'm definitely copping this one if given the opportunity.

I don't get why people dump on these.

The kid is 10 years old and is fighting Cronhs. My neighbor and Father in-law both suffer from this and it has such a huge impact on quality of life I couldn't imagine having it at 10.

So he gets a chance to design a Jordan; "It's these colors because I had them on when I first had to go to the hospital". As if your 10 year old self could've done better

99% of dudes here be like "I designed these cause they flex hard on my gram and are gonna be a quick flip or trade-bait"

DB shoes are the one pair I can truly say I feel good about owning. I hope the kids that design em get to see them on a strangers feet one day, that would be the coolest ever.
 
It's a thin line at the end of the day you can not like the shoe and respect the kid at the same time. Most people are not thinking about the kids. As with all limited kicks. You either reselling, collecting, or wearing. Most will be 1st two unless celebrity. Me I like to flip 1 and rock 1 if that lucky lol. By the way collecting is just another form of reselling to me as you just sit on shoes until you get tired of looking at them and they are worth way more then you flip or pass on to someone else to flip
