The Official Jordan XXXI Thread

Dudes really are brand fan boys sometimes.
" these look expensive and should be 250 $ and people complain too much"

I just have to sigh at this line of thinking.

Products change and improve all over life, due to feedback, every day.
If everyone sits around and trusts that big corporations are gonna have their best interests in mind and everyone is just cool with whatever they do, the temptation for them to start taking advantage becomes real.


If you hate it, state it
If you think its fire, say that too.
Thats the point of this entire place.
To share what you think.
 
The more I look at this flightspeed, it just speaks to the Jordan 28 air bag popping but this time in the heel. You would hope R&D did their homework, but as we have seen with the Jordan 30 (heel tab), Jordan 28 and 29 (bags popping) and heck even the Bron 11 (Bron never wore them, because there was a problem with the fit.) you never can tell.

Actually LeBron did wear the LeBron 11s multiple times on court but overall in that season he rather wore the zoom soldiers and LeBron 11 elites.
Zoom bag popping in the 29?
Sorry but i haven't heard about that being a frequent issue unlike on the xx8.
I have both and my xx8 did pop on both sides after 5 months already and i even didn't ball in them.
I wore my xx9 off court and on court much and there is no signs of any damage at all.

Is USA colorway relesing worldwide on Aug 6 or only vegas and oyher selection locations ?
 
Maybe my taste is different from many here, but these BRED XXXI are growing on me. I was not sure at first, but after seeing them on foot in some images, and more detailed pictures, I think they would look good for casual wear. The jumpman doesn't really bug me. I have the 29s, and the jumpman on those is huge as well. Many did not care for the jumpman on the toebox of the XXX either, so it just comes down to personal taste. It's interesting to read people's take on these. I'm not a big fan of white shoes either, so of the colorways I have seen, I would lean towards the bred. Curious to see if we're going to see more colorways between now and Sep 3.

I was a teen when Jordan played, and lived in Europe, so for me there is always more love for the shoes from that time and in original CWs, as that is what we mostly could get there (very limited) and see in stores. The 6 is by far the best designed Jordan ever, in my opinion. Describing that shoe is like describing a women, perfect tongue, nice hips...except for maybe the fact that most women don't come with 3M

. I really don't care for many models in the 14-28 range. Some would be okay in the right color, but a lot of them just look weird to me. If you like those, that's fine, just not my style. But I got a XX9 and XXX now, as I did really like those designs, and I find it funny that now I'm considering also getting these XXXIs, after a long period of just not caring much about the designs.

That's the date Dino tweeted out (along with Aug 5 for the Rio colorway). I'm assuming that they are releasing in 2 weeks.
 
I would like to see the jumpman replaced with the wings logo but regardless I'm copping. I still like the transition and the 29s/30s (same shoe) were a beast on the court! Gone are the days that you can causally wear Jordan's and be stylish off the court! For myself, I appreciate tech more so than anything and I know I'll get a fair amount of it whenever I purchase Jordan's. I've said it since day 1, I will be copping and it will be the USA and Breds.
 
Hoping to get confirmation of the Brazil and USA releasing in early August and that they will be an easy get. I need a new pair of hoop shoes and want to try these out. If I have to wait until September, then I will try out the HD Elites or Rose 7s first...
